PRELIMINARY INFORMATION
ICS548-05A
MP3 Audio Clock
Description
The ICS548-05 is a low cost, low jitter, high
performance clock synthesizer designed to
produce audio sampling rates for MP3 systems.
Using ICS’ patented analog/digital Phase-Locked
Loop (PLL) techniques, the device uses an
inexpensive 3.6864 MHz crystal or clock input to
exactly produce all of the popular audio sampling
frequencies. Power down modes allow the chip to
be turned off completely, or the PLL and audio
clock output to be turned off separately.
ICS manufactures the largest variety of
multimedia clock synthesizers for all applications.
Consult ICS to eliminate VCXOs, crystals and
oscillators from your board.
Features

Number Name Type Description
1 X1/ICLK XI Crystal connection. Connect to a 3.6864 MHz crystal, or input clock.
2, 3 VDD P Connect to +3.3V or +5V. All VDDs must be same.
4 REFEN I Reference Clock Enable. See above table.
5, 6 GND P Connect to ground.
7 S3 I Frequency select pin 3. Determines clock outputs per table above.
8 S2 I Frequency select pin 2. Determines clock outputs per table above.
9 CLK O Audio clock output set by status of S0-S3. See table above.
10, 15 DC - Don't Connect. Do not connect anything to these pins.
11 PDCLK I Power Down Clock. See above table.
12 S1 I Frequency select pin 1. Determines clock outputs per table above.
13 S0 I Frequency select pin 0. Determines clock outputs per table above.
14 REFOUT O Buffered 3.6864 MHz oscillator output clock. Controlled by REFEN.
16 X2 XO Crystal connection. Connect to a 3.6864 MHz crystal, or leave unconnected for clock.
Key: I = Input; O = output; P = power supply connection; XI, XO = crystal connections
The input pins S3:S0 lack pull-ups, so they cannot be left floating. Tie directly to VDD or GND. For a
clock input, connect the input to X1, and leave X2 unconnected (floating).
