Functional Description
The CY7B991 and CY7B992 Programmable Skew Clock Buffers (PSCB) offer user-selectable control over system clock functions. These multiple-output clock drivers provide the system integrator with functions necessary to optimize the timing of high-performance computer systems. Eight individual drivers, arranged as four pairs of user-controllable outputs, can each drive terminated transmission lines with impedances as low as 50Ω while delivering minimal and specified output skews and full-swing logic levels (CY7B991 TTL or CY7B992 CMOS).
