The ICS2509C is a high performance, low skew, low jitter
clock driver. It uses a phase lock loop (PLL) technology to
align, in both phase and frequency, the CLKIN signal with
the CLKOUT signal. It is specifically designed for use with
synchronous SDRAMs. The ICS2509C operates at 3.3V VCC
and drives up to nine clock loads.
One bank of five outputs and one bank of four outputs provide
nine low-skew, low-jitter copies of CLKIN. Output signal
duty cycles are adjusted to 50 percent, independent of the
duty cycle at CLKIN. Each bank of outputs can be enabled or
disabled separately via control (OEA and OEB) inputs. When
the OE inputs are high, the outputs align in phase and
frequency with CLKIN; when the OE inputs are low, the
outputs are disabled to the logic low state.
The ICS2509C does not require external RC filter
components. The loop filter for the PLL is included on-chip,
minimizing component count, board space, and cost. The
buffer mode shuts off the PLL and connects the input directly
to the output buffer. This buffer mode, the ICS2509C can be
use as low skew fanout clock buffer device. The ICS2509C
comes in 24 pin 173mil Thin Shrink Small-Outline package
(TSSOP) package.
