Description
The VT8225 is a universal clock generator for motherboard design. The product at a glimpse:
1. Generates all kinds of required clocks for CPU and bus operation from 6 Mhz to 80 Mhz.
2. Eliminates at least two oscillators, which are oscillators for CPU and 14.318MHz oscillator.
3. Simplifies inventory: VT8225 covers required main clock for the motherboard design.
4. Provides a reliable clock for the PLL design.
5. Is pin-to-pin compatible to oscillator.

These pins form an on-chip reference oscillator when connected to
terminals of an external parallel resonant crystal (norminally
14.318Mhz). X1 may also serve as input for an externally
generated reference signal.
Frequency select inputs. These inputs control the MCLK frequency
selection. All these inputs have internal pull-ups. Table 1 below
shows the output frequency selection conditions.

Tri-state input pin. When high, all outputs are tri-stated. When low
outputs are enabled. This pin has an internal pull-down.
oscillaor or externally provided reference.
This is the phase detector output for the clock generator. It is
single-ended, tri-state output for use as loop error signal. A 0.1uF
capacitor to ground should be connected from this pin to form the
loop filter.

This device contains circuitry to protect the inputs against damage due to high static voltages or
electric field; however, precautions should be taken to avoid application of any voltage higher than the
maximum rated voltages to this circuit. For proper operation, Vin and Vout sho uld b e constrained to the
