ICS810001-21
FEMTOCLOCKS™ DUAL VCXO VIDEO PLL
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ICS810001-21 is a member of the
ICS
HiperClockS™ family of high performance clock
HiPerClockS™ solutions from ICS. The ICS810001-21 is a PLL
based synchronous clock generator that is
optimized for digital video clock jitter attenuation
and frequency translation. The device contains two internal
frequency multiplication stages that are cascaded in series.
The first stage is a VCXO PLL that is optimized to provide
reference clock jitter attenuation, and to support the complex
PLL multiplication ratios needed for video rate conversion.
The second stage is a FemtoClock frequency multiplier that
provides the low jitter, high frequency video output clock.
Preset multiplication ratios are selected from internal lookup
tables using device input selection pins. The multiplication ra-
tios are optimized to support most common video rates used in
professional video system applications. The VCXO requires
the use of an external, inexpensive pullable crystal. Two crys-
tal connections are provided (pin selectable) so that both 60
and 59.94 base frame rates can be supported. The VCXO re-
quires external passive loop filter components which are used
to set the PLL loop bandwidth and damping characteristics.
