Applications
Frequency Generator and Integrated Buffer
The ICS9158-07 is a low-cost frequency generator designed
specifically for desktop and notebook PC applications. Four
copies of the CPU clock are available and four copies of
the BUS clock are available, elimating the need for an
external buffer.
Each high drive (25mA) output is capable of driving a 30pF
load and has a typical duty cycle of 50/50. The clock outputs
are skew-controlled to within ±250ps.
The ICS9158-07 makes a gradual transition between frequencies, so that it meets the Intel cycle-to-cycle timing specification for 486 and Pentium systems.
•8 skew-free, high drive CPU/BUS clocks
•Reference, floppy and keyboard clocks
•±250ps skew between all outputs
•Less than ±250ps absolute jitter
•Outputs can drive up to 30pF load at 1.5V/ns
•50±10% duty cycle
•Compatible with 486 and Pentium CPUs
•On-chip loop filter components
•3.0V - 5.5V supply range
•24-pin SOIC package
Ideal for RISC or CISC systems such as 486, Pentium,™
PowerPC,™ etc., requiring multiple CPU and BUS clocks.
