AD9559BCPZ

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD9552 is a fractional-N phase locked loop (PLL) based clock generator designed specifically to replace high frequency crystal oscillators and resonators. The device employs a sigma-delta (Σ-Δ) modulator (SDM) to accommodate fractional frequency synthesis. The user supplies an input reference signal by connecting a single-ended clock signal directly to the REF pin or by connecting a crystal resonator across the XTAL pins.

FEATURES

Converts a low frequency input reference signal to a high
frequency output signal
Input frequencies from 6.6 MHz to 112.5 MHz
Output frequencies up to 900 MHz
Preset pin programmable frequency translation ratios
Arbitrary frequency translation ratios via SPI port
On-chip VCO
Accepts a crystal resonator and/or an external oscillator
as a reference frequency source
Secondary output (either integer-related to the primary
output or a copy of the reference input)
RMS jitter: <0.5 ps
SPI-compatible, 3-wire programming interface
Single supply (3.3 V)
Very low power: <400 mW (under most conditions)
Small package size (5 mm × 5 mm)

APPLICATIONS

Cost effective replacement of high frequency VCXO, OCXO,
and SAW resonators
Extremely flexible frequency translation with low jitter for
SONET/SDH (including FEC), 10 Gb Ethernet, Fibre
Channel, and DRFI/DOCSIS
High-definition video frequency translation
Wireless infrastructure
Test and measurement (including handheld devices)
