The P2040A uses the most efficient and optimized
modulation profile approved by the FCC and is
implemented in a proprietary all digital method.
The P2040A modulates the output of a single PLL in
order to “spread” the bandwidth of a synthesized clock,
and more importantly, decreases the peak amplitudes of
its harmonics. This results in significantly lower system
EMI compared to the typical narrow band signal

produced by oscillators and most frequency generators.
Lowering EMI by increasing a signal’s bandwidth is called
‘spread spectrum clock generation’.

Spread Spectrum Selection
P2040A
The
Modulation Selection Table
defines the possible spread spectrum options. The optimal setting should minimize system
EMI to the fullest without affecting system performance. The spreading is described as a percentage deviation of the center
frequency. (Note: The center frequency is the frequency of the external reference input on CLKIN, pin1).
For example, P2040A is designed for high-resolution, flat panel applications and is able to support an XGA
(1024 x 768)
flat panel operating at 65MHz (F
IN
) clock speed. A spreading selection of MRA=0, SR1=1 and SR0=0 provides a percentage
deviation of ±0.75% from F
IN
. This results in the frequency on ModOUT being swept from 64.51MHz to 65.49MHz at a
modulation rate of 56.24KHz.
Refer Modulation Selection Table.
The example in the following illustration is a common EMI
reduction method for a notebook LCD panel and has already been implemented by most of the leading OEM and mobile
graphic accelerator manufacturers.
