GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9512 provides a multi-output clock distribution in a
design that emphasizes low jitter and low phase noise to
maximize data converter performance. Other applications with
demanding phase noise and jitter requirements can also benefit
from this part.
There are five independent clock outputs. Three outputs are
LVPECL (1.2 GHz), and two are selectable as either LVDS
(800 MHz) or CMOS (250 MHz) levels.
Each output has a programmable divider that may be bypassed
or set to divide by any integer up to 32. The phase of one clock
output relative to another clock output may be varied by means
of a divider phase select function that serves as a coarse timing
adjustment.
One of the LVDS/CMOS outputs features a programmable
delay element with a range of up to 10 ns of delay. This fine
tuning delay block has 5-bit resolution, giving 32 possible delays
from which to choose.
The AD9512 is ideally suited for data converter clocking
applications where maximum converter performance is
achieved by encode signals with subpicosecond jitter.
The AD9512 is available in a 48-lead LFCSP and can be
operated from a single 3.3 V supply. The temperature range is
−40°C to +85°C.

Jitter performance can be improved with higher slew
rates (greater swing).
Larger swings turn on the protection diodes and can
degrade jitter performance.
Self-biased; enables ac coupling.
With 200 mV p-p signal applied; dc-coupled.
CLK2 ac-coupled; CLK2B ac bypassed to RF ground.
Self-biased.
CLK1 and CLK2 are electrically identical; each can be used as either differential or single-ended input.
With a 50 Ω termination, this is −12.5 dBm.
