Rev ; 5/7 1MHz to 13MHz Spread-Spectrum General Description The is a spread-spectrum clock modulator IC that reduces EMI in high-clock, frequency-based, digital electronic equipment. Using an integrated phase-locked loop (PLL), the accepts an input clock signal in the range of 1MHz to 13MHz and delivers a spread-spectrum modulated output clock signal. The PLL modulates, or dithers, the output clock about the center input frequency at a pin-selectable magnitude. The automatically adjusts the dither rate based on the input clock frequency to maximize the EMI reduction. By dithering the system clock, all the address, data, and timing signals generated from this signal are also dithered so that the measured EMI at the fundamental and harmonic frequencies is greatly reduced. This is accomplished without changing clock rise/fall times or adding the space, weight, design time, and cost associated with mechanical shielding. The is provided in a low-cost, space-saving, -lead thin SOT3 package and operates over a full automotive temperature range of - C to +15 C.

These digital inputs select the desired spread-spectrum magnitude as shown in the table below. Both inputs contain pullup resistors (R PU ) to. SMSEL SMSEL1 MAGNITUDE SELECTED (%) ± 1 ±1.5 1 ±1 1 1 ±.5 Detailed Description The modulates an input clock to provide a center-dithered spread-spectrum output. A 1MHz to 13MHz clock is applied to the pin. The PLL dithers the output clock about its center frequency at a user-selectable magnitude. The user is required to cycle power to the device each time there is a change in the input frequency, for the PLL to lock correctly. This ensures proper output frequency and dither rate. The desired spread-spectrum magnitude is selected using input pins SMSEL1 and SMSEL (see the Pin Description for details). The is capable of generating spread-spectrum clocks from 1MHz to 13MHz. Dither-Rate Selection The output spread-spectrum dither rate is automatically adjusted depending on the input frequency, to maximize EMI reduction. The dither cycle rate is: f IN /51, if f IN is between 1MHz and 33MHz f IN /1, if f IN is between 33MHz and MHz f IN /, if f IN is between MHz and 13MHz On power-up, the output clock () remains threestated until it reaches a stable frequency (f ). The dither rate is selected by sampling the input clock at power-up. Applications Information Power-Supply Decoupling To achieve best results, it is highly recommended that a decoupling capacitor is used on the IC power-supply pins. Typical values of decoupling capacitors are.1µf and.1µf. Use a high-quality, ceramic, surfacemount capacitor, and mount it as close as possible to the VCC and pins of the IC to minimize lead inductance. Chip Information SUBSTRATE CONNECTED TO GROUND
