General Description
IMI SG521/22/24/28 products are Spread Spectrum Clock Generators designed to reduce the high levels of
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) found in high-speed digital systems.
By using a modulated clock as the source for all system clocks and timing signals, the amount of radiated energy
(EMI) throughout the system is greatly reduced. Energy reduction is related to the harmonic frequency, such that
th
the higher the frequency the greater the energy reduction. The 5 harmonic has greater energy reduction than the
fundamental frequency.
The SG521/2/4/8 products produce a wide range of clock frequencies from 10 to 120 MHz, which are frequency
modulated (PRCLK) by using a Spread Spectrum Clock (SSC) technique to reduce electromagnetic interference
(EMI). In addition, a non-modulated clock output (MPCLK) with various standard clock frequencies is also provided
for the part of the system that could be sensitive to a modulated clock. Refer to the Product Selection and
Frequency Selection Truth Tables for the available modulated and non-modulated clock frequencies.
The spread function can be turned on or off using the SSON control line. When spread is enabled, the modulated
output clock is down-spread at either 1.00% or 3.00% total spread.
These products are designed to be used with fixed frequency external clocks or crystal oscillators. The output clock
frequencies are designed using a 14.318, 44.24 or 48 MHz reference clock.
The products operate from a 3 to 5 volt power supply and 0 to 70°C temperature range. The SG521/2/4/8 parts are
available in 16-pin plastic SOIC packages and in die form.

Description
Output pin of on-chip reference oscillator. If Crystal Oscillator is used, this pin is left unconnected.
Power Supply Ground.
Digital logic input used to select required crystal input frequency range, frequency spread clock
(PRCLK) and non-spread clock MPCLK output frequencies. This pin has internal 150 K ohm pull-up
resistor to VDD. Refer to Frequency Selection Tables for Truth Table.
Positive Power Supply
Digital logic input used to select required crystal input frequency range, frequency spread clock
(PRCLK) and non-spread clock MPCLK output frequencies. This pin has internal 150 K ohm pull-down
resistor to GND. Refer to Frequency Selection Tables for Truth Table.
Digital logic input used to select required crystal input frequency range, frequency spread clock
(PRCLK) and non-spread clock MPCLK output frequencies. This pin has internal 150 K ohm pull-down
resistor to GND. Refer to Frequency Selection Tables for Truth Table.
Input digital control pin used to enable or disable the frequency modulation function at PRCLK Output
(Pin-12). When this pin is low (GND) spread function is on. When high (VDD), spread function is turned-
off. This pin has 150 K ohm internal pulled-up to VDD.
Used to select total Frequency Modulation (Spread) amount. The spread is either 1.00%(Narrow) or
3.00%(Wide). Both spreads are down-center with respect to output frequency at PRCLK (Pin-12). Refer
to Frequency and Spread selection Tables for the Spread selection logic states. This pin has 150 K
internal pull-up resistor to VDD.
Power Supply Ground
Bi-directional pin used to share input control and output drive function. During power-on, this pin is a
digital input and latches that state (High or Low) into an internal register as a valid S2 state. After power
has reached a pre-determined level, pin 12 becomes the driver for the PRCLK modulated output clock.
This pin has 150 K ohm internal pull-up resistor to VDD. For proper operation, an external 4.7 K ohm
resistor connected to VDD or VSS is required. Refer to Frequency Selection Truth Tables for proper
operation.
Power Supply Ground
Bi-directional pin used to share input control and output drive function. During power-on, this pin is a
digital input and latches that state (High or Low) into an internal register as a valid S3 state. After power
has reached a pre-determined level, pin 14 becomes the driver for the MPCLK non-modulated output
clock. This pin has 150 K ohm internal pull-up resistor to VDD. Refer to Frequency Selection Truth
Tables for proper operation.
Positive Power Supply
Provides Power-Down and Hi-Z function when used in conjunction with S0 and S1 digital inputs. This
pin has internal pull-down to GND. Refer to Frequency Selection Truth Tables for proper operation.

The SG521, 2, 4 and 8 uses one of three different reference frequencies. Determine the desired PRCLK frequency
from the frequency selection tables in table 5 – 8. Determine the REQUIRED REFERENCE FREQUENCY,
MPCLK and Product from table 1 and set S2, S3 and S4 control lines as indicated. Note that MPCLK/S3 and
PRCLK/S2 are bi-directional signals and serve as an input control line during power up and an output after power is
stable.
