Description
The PI6C106 is part of a reduced pin count two-chip clock solution
for designs using an Intel BX style chipset. Companion SDRAM
buffers are PI6C182 & PI6C184.
There are two PLLs, with the first PLL capable of spread spectum
operation. CPU frequencies up to 100 MHz are supported.
CPUS_STOP# is an asychronous input to the clock synthesizer. It is used to turn off the CPUCLKs for low power operation.
All other clocks will continue to run while the CPUCLKs clocks are disabled.
The CPUCLKs will always be stopped in a low state and start in such a manner that guarantees the high pulse width is a full
pulse. CPUCLK on latency is less than 4 CPUCLKs and CPUCLK off latency is less than 4 CPUCLKs.

Notes:
1. All timing is referenced to the internal CPUCLK.
2. CPU_STOP# is an asynchronous input and metastable conditions may exist. This signal is synchronized to the CPUCLKs inside PI6C106.
3. All other clocks continue to run undisturbed including SDRAMR.
4. PD# and PCI_STOP# are shown in a high (true) state.
PCI_STOP# Timing Diagram
PCI_STOP# is an asynchronous input to the PI6C106. It is used to turn off the PCICLK (0:5) clocks for low power operation. PCI_STOP#
is synchronized by the PI6C106 internally. PCICLK (0:5) clocks are stopped in a low state and started with a full high pulse width guaranteed.
PCICLK (0:5) clock on latency cycles are only one rising PCICLK clock off latency is one PCICLK clock.

Notes:

2. PCI_STOP# is an asynchronous input, and metastable conditions may exist. This signal is required to be synchronized
inside the PI6C106.
3. All other clocks continue to run undisturbed.

PD# Timing Diagram
The power down selection is used to put the part into a very low power state without turning off the power to the part. PD# is
an asynchronous active low input. This signal is synchronized internal by the PI6C106 prior to its control action of
powering down the clock synthesizer. Internal clocks will not be running after the device is put in power down state. When PD# is active
(low) all clocks are driven to a low state and held prior to turning off the VCOs and the Crystal oscillator. The power on latency is guaranteed
to be less than 3ms. The power down latency is less than three CPUCLK cycles. PCI_STOP# and CPU_STOP# are dont care signals during
the power down operations.
