The ICS9248-81 is the single chip clock solution for Desktop/
Notebook designs using the SIS style chipset. It provides all
necessary clock signals for such a system.
Spread spectrum may be enabled through I2C programming.
Spread spectrum typically reduces system EMI by 8dB to
10dB. This simplifies EMI qualification without resorting to
board design iterations or costly shielding. The ICS9248-81
employs a proprietary closed loop design, which tightly
controls the percentage of spreading over process and
temperature variations.
Serial programming I2C interface allows changing functions,
stop clock programming and frequency selection. The SD_SEL
latched input allows the SDRAM frequency to follow the
CPUCLK frequency(SD_SEL=1) or other clock frequencies
(SD_SEL=0)
ICS reserves the right to make changes in the device data identified in
this publication without further notice. ICS advises its customers to
obtain the latest version of all device data to verify that any
information being relied upon by the customer is current and accurate.

1. The ICS clock generator is a slave/receiver, I2C component. It can read back the data stored in the latches for verification.
Read-Back will support Intel PIIX4 "Block-Read" protocol.
2. The data transfer rate supported by this clock generator is 100K bits/sec or less (standard mode)
3. The input is operating at 3.3V logic levels.
4. The data byte format is 8 bit bytes.
5. To simplify the clock generator I2C interface, the protocol is set to use only "Block-Writes" from the controller. The
bytes must be accessed in sequential order from lowest to highest byte with the ability to stop after any complete byte
has been transferred. The Command code and Byte count shown above must be sent, but the data is ignored for those
two bytes. The data is loaded until a Stop sequence is issued.
6. At power-on, all registers are set to a default condition, as shown.
General I2C serial interface information
The information in this section assumes familiarity with I2C programming.

How to Write:
Controller (host) sends a start bit.
Controller (host) sends the write address D2
(H)

ICS clock will acknowledge
Controller (host) sends a dummy byte count
ICS clock will acknowledge
Controller (host) starts sending first byte (Byte 0)
through byte 5
ICS clock will acknowledge each byte one at a time.
Controller (host) sends a Stop bit
How to Read:
Controller (host) will send start bit.
Controller (host) sends the read address D3
(H)
ICS clock will acknowledge
ICS clock will send the byte count
Controller (host) acknowledges
ICS clock sends first byte (Byte 0) through byte 5
Controller (host) will need to acknowledge each byte
Controller (host) will send a stop bit
