ESCRIPTION
The ICS84329B is a general purpose, single
output high frequency synthesizer and a
HiPerClockS™
member of the HiPerClockS™ family of High
Performance Clock Solutions from ICS. The
VCO operates at a frequency range of 250MHz
to 700MHz. The VCO frequency is programmed in steps equal
to the value of the crystal frequency divided by 16. The VCO
and output frequency can be programmed using the serial or
parallel interfaces to the configuration logic. The output can
be configured to divide the VCO frequency by 1, 2, 4, and 8.
Output frequency steps as small as 125kHz to 1MHz
can be achieved using a 16MHz crystal depending on the
output dividers.

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. The TEST output is Mode 000 (shift reg-
ister out) when operating in the parallel input mode. The rela-
tionship between the VCO frequency, the crystal frequency
fxtal
and the M divider is defined as follows:
fVCO = 16 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 are defined as 250

NOTE: The functional description that follows describes op-
eration using a 16MHz crystal. Valid PLL loop divider values
for different crystal or input frequencies are defined in the In-
put Frequency Characteristics, Table 6, NOTE 1.
The ICS84329B features a fully integrated PLL and therefore
requires no external components for setting the loop band-
width. A series-resonant, fundamental crystal is used as the
input to the on-chip oscillator. The output of the oscillator is
divided by 16 prior to the phase detector. With a 16MHz crys-
tal this provides a 1MHz 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.
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 when S_LOAD tran-
sitions from LOW-to-HIGH. The M divide and N output divide
The programmable features of the ICS84329B support two values are latched on the HIGH-to-LOW transition of S_LOAD.
