Test Mode
In normal operation the TEST pin is tied to ground. For testing
purposes it can have a removable jumper to ground or a 100Ω
pull-down resistor. When the TEST pin is driven HIGH, the VCO
output is disconnected, and all eight outputs (Q0-Q7) are directly
driven from the REF input.
Pinout
Description
The PI6C9910 is a low-skew clock driver designed to simplify
clock distribution in systems requiring near synchronous clocks. A
typical application is in SDRAM modules. Each of the eight
outputs (Q0-Q7) can drive individual 50Ω transmission lines with
minimal distortion or skew, and full 5V swing.
An on-chip phase-locked loop (PLL) synchronizes the feedback
(FB) to the reference (REF) input, achieving zero-delay buffered
outputs.
Inserting an external counter between any of the Qx outputs and the
FB pin allows for generation of eight synchronous clock copies
whose frequency is a multiple of a lower frequency REF input.
The voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) frequency is determined
by the filtered ouput coming from the Phase/Frequency Detector.
The frequency select (FS) input sets the VCO operating range.
PI6C9910-5 has unbalanced output drivers (TTL), and is fully
compatible with the Cypress CY7B9910-5. The PI6C9910A features
balanced-drive outputs (CMOS) for improved rise/fall time
symmetry.
The FS and TEST inputs have internal pull-up resistors.

Notes:
1. These inputs are normally wired to VCC, GND. If these inputs are switched, the function and timing of the outputs
may glitch and the PLL may require an additional t
LOCK
time betore all datasheet limits are achieved.
2. Tested one output at a time, output shorted for less than one second, less than l0% duty cycle. Room temperature only.

Switching Characteristics Over Operating Range

Notes:
1. Test measurement levels for the PI6C9910-5 are TTL levels (1.5V to 1.5V).
Test conditions assume signal transition times of 2ns or less and output loading
as shown in the AC Test Loads and Waveforms unless otherwise specified.
2. Skew is defined as the time between the earliest and the latest output transition
among all outputs with AC Test Load.
3. t
SKEW
is defined as the skew between outputs.
4. t
DEV
is the output-to-output skew between any two outputs on separate devices
operating under the same conditions (VCC, ambient temperature, air flow, etc.).
5. Tested initially and after any design or process changes that may affect these
parameters.
6. t
ODCV
is the deviation of the output from a 50% duty cycle.
7. Specified with outputs loaded with AC Test Load (30pF).
8. t
ORISE
and t
OFALL
measured between 0.8V and 2.0V.
9. t
LOCK
is the time that is required before synchronization is achieved.
This specification is valid only after VCC is stable and within normal operating
limits. This parameter is measured from the application of a new signal or
frequency at REF or FB until tPD is within specified limits.
