DESCRIPTION:
The IDT59920A is a high fanout phase lock loop clock driver in-
tended for high performance computing and data-communications appli-
cations. The IDT59920A has CMOS outputs.
The IDT59920A maintains Cypress CY7B9920 compatibility while
providing two additional features: Synchronous Output Enable (GND/
sOE), and Positive/Negative Edge Synchronization (VDDQ/PE). When
the GND/sOE pin is held low, all outputs are synchronously enabled
(CY7B9920 compatibility). However, if GND/sOE is held high, all out-
puts except Q2 and Q3 are synchronously disabled.
Furthermore, when the VDDQ/PE is held high, all outputs are synchro-
nized with the positive edge of the REF clock input (CY7B9920 compat-
ibility). When VDDQ/PE is held low, all outputs are synchronized with the
negative edge of REF.
The FB signal is compared with the input REF signal at the phase
detector in order to drive the VCO. Phase differences cause the VCO of
the PLL to adjust upwards or downwards accordingly.
An internal loop filter moderates the response of the VCO to the
phase detector. The loop filter transfer function has been chosen to
provide minimal jitter (or frequency variation) while still providing accu-
rate responses to input frequency changes.
