ICS9120-48
Frequency Generator for CD-ROM Systems
9120-48 Rev A110196
Block Diagram
The ICS9120-48 is a high performance frequency generator
designed to support digital compact disk drive systems. It
offers all clock frequencies required for the servo and decoder
sections of these devices. These frequencies are synthesized
from a single 16.9344 MHz on-chip oscillator.
High accuracy, low jitter PLLs meet the 150 ppm frequency
tolerance required by these systems. Fast output clock edge
rates minimize board induced jitter.
Unlike competitive devices, the ICS9120-48 operates over
the entire 3.0-5.5V range.
Generates the output clock frequencies required by

External Components/Crystal Selection
The ICS9120-48 incorporates a crystal oscillator circuit de-signed
to provide 50% duty cycle over a range of operating conditions,
including the addition of external crystal load ca-pacitors to pins
X1 and X2. A parallel resonant 16.9344 MHz, 12pF load crystal is
recommended. A series resonant crystal or a parallel resonant
crystal specifying a different load can be used, but either will
result in frequencies which are slightly (up to 0.06%) different
from the ideal.
The crystal load capacitance can be increased by adding a capacitor
to each of the X1 and X2 pins and ground. This enables the use of
a crystal specifying a load greater than 12pF without changing the
output frequency.
Duty cycle is also maintained when using an external clock source
(connected to X1, X2 left unconnected) as long as the external
clock has good duty cycle.
