The ICS9248-78 is a single chip clock for Intel Pentium II.
It provides all necessary clock signals for such a system.
Spread spectrum may be enabled through I2C programming.
Spread spectrum typically reduces EMI by 8dB to 10 dB.
This simplifies EMI qualification without resorting to board
design iterations or costly shielding. The ICS9248-78
employs a proprietary closed loop design, which tightly
controls the percentage of spreading over process and
temperature variations.
