PRELIMINARY
APPLICATION INFORMATION
As in any high speed analog circuitry, the power supply pins
are vulnerable to random noise. The ICS8422004I provides
separate power supplies to isolate any high switching
noise from the outputs to the internal PLL. V
DD, VDDA, and VDDO
should be individually connected to the power supply
plane through vias, and bypass capacitors should be
used for each pin. To achieve optimum jitter performance,
power supply isolation is required. Figure 1 illustrates how
a 10
Ω resistor along with a 10F and a .01μF bypass
capacitor should be connected to each V
DDA.

CRYSTAL INPUT INTERFACE
The ICS8422004I has been characterized with 18pF parallel
resonant crystals. The capacitor values shown in Figure 2
Figure 2. CRYSTAL INPUt INTERFACE
below were determined using a 26.5625MHz 18pF parallel
resonant crystal and were chosen to minimize the ppm error.

INPUTS:
CRYSTAL INPUT:
For applications not requiring the use of the crystal oscillator
input, both XTAL_IN and XTAL_OUT can be left floating.
Though not required, but for additional protection, a 1k
Ω
resistor can be tied from XTAL_IN to ground.
TEST_CLK INPUT:
For applications not requiring the use of the test clock, it can
be left floating. Though not required, but for additional
protection, a 1k
Ω resistor can be tied from the TEST_CLK to
ground.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR UNUSED INPUT AND OUTPUT PINS
LVCMOS CONTROL PINS:
All control pins have internal pull-ups or pull-downs;
additional resistance is not required but can be added for
additional protection. A 1k
Ω resistor can be used.
OUTPUTS:
LVHSTL OUTPUT
All unused LVHSTL outputs can be left floating. We
recommend that there is no trace attached. Both sides of the
differential output pair should either be left floating or
terminated.
