ESCRIPTION
The ICS853111-01 is a low skew, high perfor-
mance 1-to-9 Differential-to-3.3V LVPECL/ECL
HiPerClockS™
Fa n o u t B u f fe r a n d a m e m b e r o f t h e
HiPerClock S ™ family of High Performance
Clock Solutions from ICS. The PCLK, nPCLK
pair can accept LVPECL, CML and SSTL differential input
levels. The ICS853111-01 is characterized to operate from
a 3.3V power supply. Guaranteed output and part-to-part
skew characteristics make the ICS853111-01 ideal for
those clock distribution applications demanding well
defined performance and repeatability.

The spectral purity in a band at a specific offset from the funda-
mental compared to the power of the fundamental is called the
dBc Phase Noise.
This value is normally expressed using a
Phase noise plot and is most often the specified plot in many
applications. Phase noise is defined as the ratio of the noise
power present in a 1Hz band at a specified offset from the fun-
damental frequency to the power value of the fundamental. This
ratio is expressed in decibels (dBm) or a ratio of the power in
0

-50
the 1Hz band to the power in the fundamental. When the re-
quired offset is specified, the phase noise is called a
dBc
value,
which simply means dBm at a specified offset from the funda-
mental. By investigating jitter in the frequency domain, we get a
better understanding of its effects on the desired application over
the entire time record of the signal. It is mathematically possible
to calculate an expected bit error rate given a phase noise plot.

As with most timing specifications, phase noise measurements
have issues. The primary issue relates to the limitations of the
equipment. Often the noise floor of the equipment is higher than
the noise floor of the device. This is illustrated above. The de-
vice meets the noise floor of what is shown, but can actually be
lower. The phase noise is dependant on the input source and
measurement equipment.
