The ICS1524A is a low-cost, very high-performance
frequency generator and phase controlled clock synthesizer. It is perfectly suited to phase controlled clock
synthesis and distribution as well as line-locked and
genlocked applications.
The ICS1524A offers two channels of clock phase controlled outputs; CLK and DPACLK. These two output
channels have both 250 MHz PECL differential and 150
MHz SSTL_3 single-ended output pins. The CLK output
channel has a fixed phase relationship to the PLL’ s input
and the DPACLK uses the Dynamic Phase Adjust circuitry to allow control of the clock phase relative to input
signal.
Optionally , the CLK outputs can operate at half the clock
rate and phase aligned with the DPACLK channel, enabling deMUXing of multiplexed analog-to-digital
converters. The FUNC pin provides either the regenerated input from the phase-locked loop (PLL) divider
chain output or a re-synchronized and sharpened input
HSYNC.
The advanced PLL uses either its internal programmable feedback divider or an external divider and is
programmed by a standard I

Resolution (number of delay elements per clock cycle) is selected by DPA_Res0-1 (Reg 5:0-1).
Note: Offsets equal to or greater than one clock period are neither recommended nor supported.
Example: For DPA_Res0-1=01H, the clock can be delayed from 0 to 31 steps.
7Fil_SelSelects external loop filter (0) or internal loop filter (1).
The use of an external loop filter is strongly recommended for all designs. Typical loop filter
values are 6.8K Ohms for the series resistor, 3300 pF RF-type capacitor for the series capacitor,
and 33 pF for the shunt capacitor.
Divides the input from OSC (pin 12) by the set modulus.
The modulus equals the programmed value, plus 2.
Therefore, the modulus range is from 3 to 129.

General Layout Guidelines
• Use a PC board with at least four layers: one power, one ground, and two signal.
• Use at least one 4.7 uF T ant alum (or similar) capacitor for global VDD bulk decoupling.
• All supply voltages must be supplied from a common source and must ramp together.
• Any flux or other board surface debris can degrade the performance of the external loop filter.
• Ensure that the 1524A area of the board is free of contaminants.
ICS1524A
Specific Layout Guidelines
1. Digital Supply (VDD) – Bypass pin 1 (VDD) to pin 2 (VSS) a 0.1-µF capacitor, located as close as possible to the pins. A
0.01-µF capacitor may be added for additional high frequency rejection.
2. External Loop Filter –Strongly recommended in
(EXTFIL and EXTFILRET) as possible with minimum length traces. Typical loop filter values are 6.8K Ohms for the
series resistor, 3300 pF RF-type capacitor for the series capacitor, and 33 pF for the shunt capacitor. (For details, see
the Frequently Asked Questions part of the ICS1523 Applications Guide, FAQ2 and FAQ3.) A ground isolated, surface
trace can be useful to isolate this section from the rest of the board.
3. Analog PLL Supply (VDDA) – Decouple main VDD from pin 10 (VDDA) with a series ferrite bead. Bypass the supply end
of the bead with 4.7-µF. Bypass pin 10 to pin 11 (VSSA) with a 0.1-µF capacitor. A 0.01-µF capacitor may be added for
additional high frequency rejection. Locate these components as close as possible to the pins.
4. PECL Current Set Resistor – Locate PECL current-set resistor as close as possible to pin 24 (IREF). Bypass pin 24 to
ground with a 0.1 -µF capacitor.
.
5. PECL Outputs – Implement these outputs as microstrip transmission lines. The trace widths shown are for 75 Ohm
characteristic impedance. Locate any optional series “snubbing” resistors as close as possible to the source pins. If
the termination resistors are included on-board, locate them as close as possible to the load and connect directly to the
power and ground planes.
[These termination resistors are omitted if the load device implements them internally. For details, see the ICS applica-
tion note on microstrip and striplines (1572AN1) and within the ICS1523 Applications Guide, the application note on
Designing a Custom Interface for the ICS1523 (1523AN4.)]
All Designs. Locate loop filter components as close to pins 8 and 9
6. Output Driver Supply – Bypass pin 18 (VDDQ) to pin 19 (VSSQ) with a 0.1-µF capacitor, located as close as possible
to the pins. A 0.01-µF capacitor may be added for additional high frequency rejection.
7. SSTL_3 Outputs – SSTL_3 outputs can be used like conventional CMOS rail-to-rail logic or as a terminated transmission line system at higher-output frequencies. With terminated outputs, the considerations of item 5, “PECL Outputs”
apply. See JEDEC documents JESD8-A and JESD8-8.

PECL Interface for the ICS1523
SSTL_3 Outputs
Unterminated Outputs
In the ICS1524A, unterminated SSTL_3 output pins display exponential transitions similar to those of rectangular
pulses presented to RC loads. The 10-90% rise time is typically 1.6 ns, and the corresponding fall time is typically
700 ps. In turn, this asymmetry contributes to duty cycle asymmetry at higher output frequencies. In the absence of
significant load capacitance (which can further increase rise and fall time), this asymmetry is the dominant factor
determining high-frequency performance of these single-ended outputs. T ypically , no termination is required either for
the LOCK/REF , FUNC, and CLK/2 output s or for CLK outputs up to approximately 135 MHz.
T erminated Output s
SSTL_3 outputs are intended to terminate in low impedances to reduce the effect of external circuit capacitance.
Use of transmission line techniques enables use of longer traces between source and driver without increasing
ringing due to reflections. Where external capacitance is minimal and substantial voltage swing is required to meet
L VTTL V
by termination in a low impedance.
and VOL requirements, the intrinsic rise and fall times of ICS1524A SSTL outputs are only slightly improved
IH
The ICS1524A SSTL output source impedance is typically less than 60 Ohms. Termination impedance of 100 Ohms
reduces output swing by less than 30% which is more than enough to drive a single load of L VTTL inputs.

Power Supply Considerations
The ICS1524A incorporates special internal power-on reset circuitry that requires no external reset signal connection. The supply voltage (VDD) must remain within the recommended operating conditions during normal operation. T o reset the ICS1524A,
the supply voltage at the part must be reduced below the threshold voltage (V
age must remain below that threshold voltage such that board power conditioning capacitors are drained and the proper reset
state is latched. The amount of time (t
10 ms should be sufficient.
