Spread Spectrum Frequency Timing Generator
Features
• Generates a spread spectrum timin g signal (SYSCLK)
and a non-spread signal (USBCL K)
• Requires a 14.318-MHz crystal for oper a ti on
• Supports MIPS microprocessor clock frequencies
• Reduces peak EMI by as much as 12 dB
• Integrated loop filter components
• Cycle-to-cycle jitter = 250 ps (max)
• Operates with a 3.3 or 5.0V power supply
• Spread output is selectable from 10 to 133 MHz
• TEST mode supports modulation off (High-Z ) and special test input reference frequency
• Guaranteed 45/55 duty cycle
• Pack aged in a 16-pin, 300-mil -wide SOIC (Small Outli ne
Integrated Circuit)
Overview
The W155 incorporates the latest advances in PLL-based
spread spectrum frequency synthesizer technology. By frequency modulating the SYSCLK output with a low-frequency
carrier, peak EMI can be great ly reduced in a system. Use of
this technique all ows systems to pass inc reasingly difficu lt EMI
testing without resorting to costly shielding or redesi gn.
In a system that uses t he W155, not only is EMI reduce d in the
various clock lines, but also in all signals which are synchronized to SYSCLK. Therefore, the benefits of using this technique increase with the number of address and data lines in
the system.
The W1 55 is spe cif ically tar get ed towa rd MI PS micr opr oces sor based systems where EMI is of particular concern. Each
device uses a single 14. 318- MHz crystal to gen erate a selectable spread spectrum output and an unmodulated 48-MHz
USB Output.
The spreading func ti on can be disabled b y taking the SSON#
pin high. Spread percent age can be selected with the SS%
input (see
Table 2
below ).
