Product Details

The AD9577 provides a multioutput clock generator function, along with two on-chip phase-locked loop cores, PLL1 and PLL2, optimized for network clocking applications. The PLL designs are based on the Analog Devices, Inc., proven portfolio of high performance, low jitter frequency synthesizers to maximize network performance. The PLLs have I2C programmable output frequencies and formats. The fractional-N PLL can support spread spectrum clocking for reduced EMI radiated peak power. Both PLLs can support frequency margining. Other applications with demanding phase noise and jitter requirements can benefit from this part.

The first integer-N PLL section (PLL1) consists of a low noise phase frequency detector (PFD), a precision charge pump (CP), a low phase noise voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), a programmable feedback divider, and two independently programmable output dividers. By connecting an external crystal or applying a reference clock to the REFCLK pin, frequencies of up to 637.5 MHz can be synchronized to the input reference. Each output divider and feedback divider ratio is I2C programmed for the required output rates.

A second fractional-N PLL (PLL2) with a programmable modulus allows VCO frequencies that are fractional multiples of the reference frequency to be synthesized. Each output divider and feedback divider ratio can be programmed for the required output rates, up to 637.5 MHz. This fractional-N PLL can also operate in integer-N mode for the lowest jitter.

Up to four differential output clock signals can be configured as either LVPECL or LVDS signaling formats. Alternatively, the outputs can be configured for up to eight CMOS outputs. Combinations of these formats are supported. No external loop filter components are required, thus conserving valuable design time and board space. The AD9577 is available in a 40-lead, 6 mm × 6 mm LFCSP package and can operate from a single 3.3 V supply. The operating temperature range is −40°C to +85°C.

Applications

  • Low jitter, low phase noise multioutput clock generator for data communications applications including Ethernet, Fibre Channel, SONET, SDH, PCI-e, SATA, PTN, OTN, ADC/DAC, and digital video
