DESCRIPTION:
The IDT5992A is a high fanout PLL based clock driver intended for
high performance computing and data-communications applications. A
key feature of the programmable skew is the ability of outputs to lead or
lag the REF input signal. The IDT5992A has eight programmable skew
outputs in four banks of 2. Skew is controlled by 3-level input signals
that may be hard-wired to appropriate HIGH-MID-LOW levels.
The IDT5992A maintains Cypress CY7B992 compatibility while pro-
viding two additional features: Synchronous Output Enable (GND/sOE),
and Positive/Negative Edge Synchronization (V
DDQ
/PE). When the GND/
sOE
pin is held low, all the outputs are synchronously enabled (CY7B992
compatibility). However, if GND/sOE is held high, all the outputs except
3Q0 and 3Q1 are synchronously disabled.
Furthermore, when the V
DDQ
/PE is held high, all the outputs are syn-
chronized with the positive edge of the REF clock input (CY7B992 com-
patibility). When V
DDQ
/PE is held low, all the outputs are synchronized
with the negative edge of REF.

PROGRAMMABLE SKEW
Output skew with respect to the REF input is adjustable to compensate
for PCB trace delays, backplane propagation delays or to accommodate
requirements for special timing relationships between clocked compo-
nents. Skew is selectable as a multiple of a time unit t
U
which is of the
order of a nanosecond (see PLL Programmable Skew Range and Resolution
Table). There are nine skew configurations available for each output
pair. These configurations are chosen by the nF
1:0
control pins. In order
2
to minimize the number of control pins, 3-level inputs (HIGH-MID-LOW)
are used, they are intended for but not restricted to hard-wiring. Undriven
3-level inputs default to the MID level. Where programmable skew is
not a requirement, the control pins can be left open for the zero skew
default setting. The Control Summary Table shows how to select specific
skew taps by using the nF
1:0
control pins.

EXTERNAL FEEDBACK
By providing external feedback, the IDT5992A gives users flexibility
with regard to skew adjustment. The FB signal is compared with the
input REF signal at the phase detector in order to drive the VCO. Phase
differences cause the VCO of the PLL to adjust upwards or downwards
accordingly.
An internal loop filter moderates the response of the VCO to the
phase detector. The loop filter transfer function has been chosen to
provide minimal jitter (or frequency variation) while still providing accu-
rate responses to input frequency changes.

Comments
NOTES:
1. The device may be operated outside recommended frequency ranges without damage, but functional operation is not guaranteed. Selecting the ap-
propriate FS value based on input frequency range allows the PLL to operate in its ‘sweet spot’ where jitter is lowest.
2. The level to be set on FS is determined by the nominal operating frequency of the VCO and Time Unit Generator. The VCO frequency always ap-
pears at 1Q
1:0
, 2Q
1:0
, and the higher outputs when they are operated in their undivided modes. The frequency appearing at the REF and FB inputs will
be the same as the VCO when the output connected to FB is undivided. The frequency of the REF and FB inputs will be 1/2 or 1/4 the VCO frequency
when the part is configured for a frequency multiplication by using a divided output as the FB input.
3. Skew adjustment range assumes that a zero skew output is used for feedback. If a skewed Q output is used for feedback, then adjustment range will
be greater. For example if a 4t
U
skewed output is used for feedback, all other outputs will be skewed –4t
U
in addition to whatever skew value is programmed
for those outputs. ‘Max adjustment’ range applies to output pairs 3 and 4 where ± 6t
U
skew adjustment is possible and at the lowest F
NOM
value.

See Skew Selection Table for Output Pairs
NOTES:
1. All timing and jitter tolerances apply for F
NOM
> 25MHz.
2. Skew is the time between the earliest and the latest output transition among all outputs for which the same t
U
delay has been selected when all are
loaded with the specified load.
3. t
SKEWPR
is the skew between a pair of outputs (xQ
0
and xQ
1
) when all eight outputs are selected for 0t
U
.
4. t
SKEW0
is the skew between outputs when they are selected for 0t
U
.
5. For IDT5992A-2, t
SKEW0
is measured with C
L
= 0pF; for C
L
= 30pF, t
SKEW0
= 0.45ns max.
6. There are 3 classes of outputs: Nominal (multiple of t
U
delay), Inverted (4Q
0
and 4Q
1
only with 4F
0
= 4F
1
= HIGH), and Divided (3Qx and 4Qx only
in Divide-by-2 or Divide-by-4 mode).
7. t
DEV
is the output-to-output skew between any two devices operating under the same conditions (V
DD
, ambient temperature, air flow, etc.)
8. t
LOCK
is the time that is required before synchronization is achieved. This specification is valid only after V
DD
is stable and within normal operating
limits. This parameter is measured from the application of a new signal or frequency at REF or FB until t
PD
is within specified limits.
9. t
PD
is measured with REF input rise and fall times (from 0.2V
DD
to 0.8V
DD
) of 1.5ns.
