DATASHEET
MULTIPLIER AND ZERO DELAY BUFFER
Description
The ICS570 is a high-performance Zero Delay Buffer (ZDB)
which integrates IDT’s proprietary analog/digital Phase
Locked Loop (PLL) techniques. The A version is
recommended for 5 V designs and the B version for
3.3 V designs. The chip is part of IDT’s ClockBlocks
TM
family, and was designed as a performance upgrade to
meet today’s higher speed and lower voltage requirements.
The zero delay feature means that the rising edge of the
input clock aligns with the rising edges of both output
clocks, giving the appearance of no delay through the
device. There are two outputs on the chip, one being a
low-skew divide by two of the other output. The device
incorporates an all-chip power down/tri-state mode that
stops the internal PLL and puts both outputs into a high
impedance state.
The ICS570 is ideal for synchronizing outputs in a large
variety of systems, from personal computers to data
communications to graphics/video. By allowing off-chip
feedback paths, the device can eliminate the delay through
other devices.
The ICS570 A and B versions were designed to improve
input to output jitter from the original ICS570M version, and
are recommended for all new designs.

External Components
The ICS570 requires a 0.01µF decoupling capacitor to be connected between VDD and GND. It must be connected
close to the part to minimize lead inductance. No external power supply filtering is required for this device. A 33Ω
series terminating resistor can be used next to each output pin.

Using CLK as the feedback will always result in synchronized rising edges between ICLK and CLK. However, the
CLK/2 could be a falling edge compared with ICLK. IDT recommends using CLK/2 feedback whenever possible.
This will synchronize the rising edges of all three clocks.
Clock Period Jitter Tables (ICS570A)
All jitter values are considered typical measured at 25° C with 27Ω termination resistor and 15 pF loads on both CLK
and CLK/2. The feedback is from CLK/2 to FBIN. Note that if an output is unused, it should be left unconnected to
improve output jitter on the active output clocks.
