Functional Description
The CY25811/12/14 products are Spread Spectrum Clock
Generator (SSCG) ICs used for the purpose of reducing
electromagnetic interference (EMI) found in today’s
high-speed digital electronic systems.
The devices use a Cypress proprietary phase-locked loop
(PLL) and Spread Spectrum Clock (SSC) technology to
synthesize and modulate the frequency of the input clock. By
frequency modulating the clock, the measured EMI at the
fundamental and harmonic frequencies is greatly reduced.
This reduction in radiated energy can significantly reduce the
cost of complying with regulatory agency requirements and
improve time to market without degrading system performance.
The input frequency range is 4 to 32 MHz and accepts clock,
crystal and ceramic resonator inputs. The output clock can be
selected to produce 1x, 2x, or 4x multiplication of the input
frequency with Spread Spectrum Frequency Modulation.
The use of 2x or 4x frequency multiplication eliminates the
need for higher order crystals and enables the user to
generate up to 128-MHz Spread Spectrum Clock (SSC) by
using only first order crystals. This will reduce the cost while
improving the system clock accuracy, performance and
complexity.
Center Spread or Down Spread frequency modulation can be
selected by the user based on four discrete values of

The CY25811/12/14 products are available in an 8-pin SOIC
(150-mil.) package with a Commercial operating temperature
range of 0 to 70°C and Industrial Temperature range of –40 to
85°C. Refer to CY25568 for multiple clock output options such
as modulated and unmodulated clock outputs or Power-down
function. For Automotive applications, refer to
CY25811/12/14SE data sheet.
Input Frequency Range and Selection
The CY25811/12/14 input frequency range is 4 to 32 MHz.
This range is divided into three segments and controlled by
3-Level FRSEL pin as given in Table 1.

Spread% Selection
The CY25811/12/14 SSCG products provide Center-Spread,
Down-Spread and No-Spread functions. The amount of
Spread% is selected by using 3-Level S0 and S1 digital inputs
and Spread% values are given in Table 2.

3-Level Digital Inputs
S0, S1, and FRSEL digital inputs are designed to sense 3
different logic levels designated as High “1”, Low “0” and
Middle “M”. With this 3-Level digital input logic, the 3-Level
Logic is able to detect 9 different logic states.
S0, S1 and FRSEL pins include an on chip 20K (10K/10K)
resistor divider. No external application resistors are needed
to implement the 3-Level logic levels as shown below:
Logic Level “0”: 3–Level logic pin connected to GND.
Logic Level “M”: 3–Level logic pin left floating (no connection).
Logic Level “1”: 3–Level logic pin connected to V
Figure 1 illustrates how to implement 3–Level Logic.

Modulation Rate
Spread Spectrum Clock Generators utilize frequency
modulation (FM) to distribute energy over a specific band of
frequencies. The maximum frequency of the clock (fmax) and
minimum frequency of the clock (fmin) determine this band of
frequencies. The time required to transition from fmin to fmax
and back to fmin is the period of the Modulation Rate. The
Modulation Rate of SSCG clocks are generally referred to in
terms of frequency, or
fmod = 1/Tmod.
The input clock frequency, fin, and the internal divider
determine the Modulation Rate.
In the case of CY25811/2/4 devices, the (Spread Spectrum)
modulation Rate, fmod, is given by the following formula:
fmod = fin/DR
where; fmod is the Modulation Rate, fin is the Input Frequency
and DR is the Divider Ratio as given in Ta b l e 3. Notice that
Input Frequency Range is set by FRSEL.

Input and Output Frequency Selection
The relationship between input frequency versus output
frequency in terms of device selection and FRSEL setting is
given in Table 4 . As shown, the input frequency range is
selected by FRSEL and is the same for CY25811, CY25812,
and CY25814. The selection of CY25811 (1x), CY25812 (2x)
or CY25814 (4x) determines the frequency multiplication at
the output (SSCLK, Pin 5) with respect to input frequency
(XIN, Pin-1).
