DESCRIPTION
The SY100S838/L is a low skew (÷1,
÷2/3)
or (÷2,
÷4/
6) clock generation chip designed explicitly for low skew
clock generation applications. The internal dividers are
synchronous to each other, therefore, the common output
edges are all precisely aligned. The devices can be driven
by either a differential or single-ended ECL or, if positive
power supplies are used, PECL input signal. In addition,
by using the V
BB
output, a sinusoidal source can be AC-
coupled into the device. If a single-ended input is to be
used, the V
BB
output should be connected to the CLK
input and bypassed to ground via a 0.01µF capacitor.
The V
BB
output is designed to act as the switching
reference for the input of the SY100S838/L under single-
ended input conditions. As a result, this pin can only
source/sink up to 0.5mA of current.
The Function Select (F
SEL
) input is used to determine
what clock generation chip function is. When FS
EL
input
is LOW, SY100S838/L functions as a divide by 2 and by
4/6 clock generation chip. However, if FS
EL
input is HIGH,
it functions as a divide by 1 and by 2/3 clock chip.
The common enable (EN) is synchronous so that the
internal dividers will only be enabled/disabled when the
internal clock is already in the LOW state. This avoids
any chance of generating a runt clock pulse on the
internal clock when the device is enabled/disabled as
can happen with an asynchronous control. An internal
runt pulse could lead to losing synchronization between
the internal divider stages. The internal enable flip-flop is
clocked on the falling edge of the input clock, therefore,
all associated specification limits are referenced to the
negative edge of the clock input.
Upon start-up, the internal flip-flops will attain a random
state; the master reset (MR) input allows for the
synchronization of the internal dividers, as well as for
multiple SY100S838/Ls in a system.

Notes:
1. Parametric values specified at:
5 volt Power Supply Range 100S838 Series:
-4.2V to -5.5V.
3 volt Power Supply Range 100S838L Series -3.0V to -3.8V.
2. Skew is measured between outputs under identical transitions.
3. Minimum input swing for which AC parameters are guaranteed. The device will function reliably with differential inputs down to 100mV.
4. The CMR range is referenced to the most positive side of the differential input signal. Normal operation is obtained if the HIGH level falls within the specified
range and the peak-to-peak voltage lies between V
PP
(min) and 1.0V. The lower end of the CMR range is dependent on V
EE
and is equal to V
EE
+1.65V.
