AV9155C
Low Cost 20-Pin Frequency Generator
General Description
The
AV9155C
is a low cost frequency generator designed
specifically for desktop and notebook PC applications with
either 3.3V or 5.0V power supply voltage. Its CPU clocks
provide all necessary CPU frequencies for 286, 386 and 486
systems, including support for the latest speeds of processors.
The device uses a 14.318 MHz crystal to generate the CPU
and all peripheral clocks for integrated desktop motherboards.
The dual 14.318 MHz clock outputs allows one output for the
system and one to be the input to an ICS graphics frequency
generator such as the AV9194.
The CPU clock offers the unique feature of smooth, glitch-
free transitions from one frequency to the next, making this
ideal device to use whenever slowing the CPU speed. The
AV9155C
makes a gradual transition between frequencies, so
that it obeys the Intel cycle-to-cycle timing specification for
486 systems. The simultaneous 2X and 1X CPU clocks offer
controlled skew to within 1.5ns (max) of each other.
ICS offers several versions of the
AV9155C.
The different
devices are shown below:

ICS has been shipping motherboard frequency generators
since April 1990, and is the leader in the area of multiple
output clocks on a single chip. The
AV9155C
is a third
generation device, and uses ICS’s patented analog CMOS
phase-locked loop technology for low phase jitter. ICS offers
a broad family of frequency generators for motherboards,
graphics and other applications, including cost-effective
versions with only one or two output clocks. Consult ICS for
all of your clock generation needs.

Frequency Transitions
A key feature of the
AV9155C
is its ability to provide smooth,
glitch-free frequency transitions on the CPU and 2XCPU
clocks when the frequency select pins are changed. These
frequency transitions do not violate the Intel 486 specification
of less than 0.1% frequency change per clock period.
Using an Input Clock as Reference
The
AV9155C
is designed to accept a 14.318 MHz crystal as
the input reference. With some external changes, it is possible
to use a crystal oscillator or clock input. Please see application
note AN04 for details on driving the
AV9155C
with a clock.
