Pin Description
Reference Input:
Output signals Q0:9 will be synchronized to this signal.
Feedback Input:
This input must be fed by one of the outputs (typically FBOUT)
to ensure proper functionality. If the trace between FBIN and FBOUT is equal in
length to the traces between the outputs and the signal destinations, then the
signals received at the destinations will be synchronized to the CLK signal input.
Integrated Series Resistor Outputs:
The frequency and phase of the signals
provided by these pins will be equal to the reference signal if properly laid out.
Each output has a 25Ω series damping resistor integrated.

The frequency and phase of the signal
provided by this pin will be equal to the reference signal if properly laid out. This
output has a 25Ω series damping resistor integrated.
Feedback Output:
This output has a 25Ω series resistor integrated on chip.
Typically it is connected directly to the FBIN input with a trace equal in length to
the traces between outputs Q0:9 and the destination points of these output
signals.
Analog Power Connection:
Connect to 3.3V. Use ferrite beads to help reduce
noise for optimal jitter performance.

on the DIMM. The W132 takes in the signal from the mother-
board and buffers out clock signals with enough drive to sup-
port all the DIMM board clocking needs. The W132 is also
designed to meet the needs of new PC133 SDRAM designs,
operating to 133 MHz.
The W132 was specifically designed to accept SSFTG signals
currently being used in motherboard designs to reduce EMI.
Zero delay buffers which are not designed to pass this feature
through may cause skewing failures.
Output enable pins allow for shutdown of output when they are
not being used. This reduces EMI and power consumption.

Overview
The W132 is a PLL-based clock driver designed for use in dual
inline memory modules. The clock driver has output frequen-
cies of up to 133 MHz and output to output skews of less than
250 ps. The W132 provides minimum cycle-to-cycle and long
term jitter, which is of significant importance to meet the tight
input-to-input skew budget in DIMM applications.
The current generation of 256 and 512 megabyte memory
modules needs to support 100-MHz clocking speeds. Espe-
cially for cards configured in 16x4 or 8x8 format, the clock
signal provided from the motherboard is generally not strong
enough to meet all the requirements of the memory and logic

Spread Aware
Many systems being designed now utilize a technology called
Spread Spectrum Frequency Timing Generation. Cypress has
been one of the pioneers of SSFTG development, and we de-
signed this product so as not to filter off the Spread Spectrum
feature of the Reference input, assuming it exists. When a
zero delay buffer is not designed to pass the SS feature
through, the result is a significant amount of tracking skew
which may cause problems in systems requiring synchroniza-
tion.
For more details on Spread Spectrum timing technology,
please see the Cypress application note titled, “EMI Suppres-
sion Techniques with Spread Spectrum Frequency Timing
Generator (SSFTG) ICs.”
If it is desirable to either add a little delay, or slightly precede
the input signal, this may also be affected by either making the
trace to the FBIN pin a little shorter or a little longer than the
traces to the devices being clocked.
Inserting Other Devices in Feedback Path
Another nice feature available due to the external feedback is
the ability to synchronize signals up to the signal coming from
some other device. This implementation can be applied to any
device (ASIC, multiple output clock buffer/driver, etc.) which is
put into the feedback path.
Referring to
Figure 2,
if the traces between the ASIC/buffer
and the destination of the clock signal(s) (A) are equal in length
to the trace between the buffer and the FBIN pin, the signals
at the destination(s) device will be driven high at the same time
the Reference clock provided to the ZDB goes high. Synchro-
nizing the other outputs of the ZDB to the outputs form the
ASIC/Buffer is more complex however, as any propagation de-
lay in the ASIC/Buffer must be accounted for.

How to Implement Zero Delay
Typically, zero delay buffers (ZDBs) are used because a de-
signer wants to provide multiple copies of a clock signal in
phase with each other. The whole concept behind ZDBs is that
the signals at the destination chips are all going HIGH at the
same time as the input to the ZDB. In order to achieve this,
layout must compensate for trace length between the ZDB and
the target devices. The method of compensation is described
below.
External feedback is the trait that allows for this compensation.
The PLL on the ZDB will cause the feedback signal to be in
phase with the reference signal. When laying out the board,
match the trace lengths between the output being used for
feed back and the FBIN input to the PLL.
