ESCRIPTION
The ICS8432I-51 is a general purpose, dual output
Crystal-to-3.3V Differential LVPECL High Fre-
HiPerClockS™
quency Synthesizer and a member of the
HiPerClockS™ family of High Performance Clock
Solutions from ICS. The ICS8432I-51 has a select-
able TEST_CLK or crystal input. The VCO operates at a
frequency range of 250MHz to 700MHz. The VCO frequency
is programmed in steps equal to the value of the input refer-
ence or crystal frequency. The VCO and output frequency
can be programmed using the serial or parallel interface to
the configuration logic. The low phase noise characteristics
of the ICS8432I-51 make it an ideal clock source for Gigabit
Ethernet, Fibre Channel 1 and 2, and Infiniband applications.

NOTE: The functional description that follows describes op-
eration using a 25MHz crystal. Valid PLL loop divider values
for different crystal or input frequencies are defined in the In-
put Frequency Characteristics, Table 5, NOTE 1.
The ICS8432I-51 features a fully integrated PLL and there-
fore requires no external components for setting the loop band-
width. A fundamental crystal is used as the input to the on-
chip oscillator. The output of the oscillator is fed into the phase
detector. A 25MHz crystal provides a 25MHz phase detector
reference frequency. The VCO of the PLL operates over a
range of 250MHz to 700MHz. The output of the M divider is
also applied to the phase detector.
The phase detector and the M divider force the VCO output fre-
quency to be M times the reference frequency by adjusting the
VCO control voltage. Note that for some values of M (either too
high or too low), the PLL will not achieve lock. The output of the
VCO is scaled by a divider prior to being sent to each of the LVPECL
output buffers. The divider provides a 50% output duty cycle.
The programmable features of the ICS8432I-51 support two in-
put modes to program the M divider and N output divider. The
two input operational modes are parallel and serial.
Figure 1
shows the timing diagram for each mode. In parallel mode, the
nP_LOAD input is initially LOW. The data on inputs M0 through
M8 and N0 and N1 is passed directly to the M divider and N
output divider. On the LOW-to-HIGH transition of the nP_LOAD
input, the data is latched and the M divider remains loaded until
the next LOW transition on nP_LOAD or until a serial event
occurs. As a result, the M and N bits can be hardwired to set the

M divider and N output divider to a specific default state that
will automatically occur during power-up. The TEST output is
LOW when operating in the parallel input mode. The relationship
between the VCO frequency, the crystal frequency and the
M divider is defined as follows: fVCO = fxtal x M
The M value and the required values of M0 through M8 are
shown in Table 3B, Programmable VCO Frequency Function
Table. Valid M values for which the PLL will achieve lock for a
25MHz reference are defined as 10
≤
M
≤
28. The frequency
out is defined as follows: FOUT = fVCO = fxtal x M

Serial operation occurs when nP_LOAD is HIGH and S_LOAD
is LOW. The shift register is loaded by sampling the S_DATA
bits with the rising edge of S_CLOCK. The contents of the
shift register are loaded into the M divider and N output di-
vider when S_LOAD transitions from LOW-to-HIGH. The M
divide and N output divide values are latched on the HIGH-to-
LOW transition of S_LOAD. If S_LOAD is held HIGH, data at
the S_DATA input is passed directly to the M divider and N
output divider on each rising edge of S_CLOCK. The serial
mode can be used to program the M and N bits and test bits
T1 and T0. The internal registers T0 and T1 determine the state
of the TEST output as follows:
