Low Skew, 1-to-4,
Differential-to-LVDS Fanout Buffer
General Description
The ICS8543 is a low skew, high performance 1-to-4
Differential-to-LVDS Clock Fanout Buffer. Utilizing Low Voltage
Differential Signaling (LVDS) the ICS8543 provides a low power, low
noise, solution for distributing clock signals over controlled
impedances of 100Ω. The ICS8543 has two selectable clock inputs.
The CLK, nCLK pair can accept most standard differential input
levels. The PCLK, nPCLK pair can accept LVPECL, CML, or SSTL
input levels. The clock enable is internally synchronized to eliminate
runt pulses on the outputs during asynchronous
assertion/deassertion of the clock enable pin.
Guaranteed output and part-to-part skew characteristics make the
ICS8543 ideal for those applications demanding well defined
performance and repeatability.

After CLK_EN switches, the clock outputs are disabled or enabled following a rising and falling input clock edge as shown in Figure 1.
In the active mode, the state of the outputs are a function of the CLK/nCLK and PCLK/nPCLK inputs as described in Table 3B.
