ICS672-01/02
QuadraClock™ Quadrature Delay Buffer
Description
The ICS672-01 and ICS672-02 are zero delay
buffers that generate four output clocks whose
phases are spaced at 90° intervals. Based on ICS’
proprietary low jitter Phase Locked Loop (PLL)
techniques, each device provides five low skew
outputs, with clock rates up to 84 MHz for the
ICS672-01 and up to 135 MHz for the
ICS672-02. By providing outputs delayed one
quarter clock cycle, the device is useful for systems
requiring early or late clocks.
The ICS672-01/02 include multiplier selections of
x0.5, x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, or x6. They also offer a
mode to power down all internal circuitry and tri
state the outputs. In normal operation, output
clock FBCLK is tied to the FBIN pin.
ICS manufactures the largest variety of clock
generators and buffers, and is the largest clock
supplier in the world.

Key: I = Input; O = output; P = power supply connection.
External Components
The ICS672-01/01 requires a minimum number of external components for proper operation. Decoupling
capacitors of 0.01µF should be connected between VDD and GND on pins 11 and 12, VDD and GND
on pins 13 and 12, and VDDIO and GND on pins 5 and 6, as close to the device as possible. A series
termination resistor of 33 Ω may be used close to each clock output pin to reduce reflections.
