circuit board layers and shielding traditionally required to
pass EMI regulations.
The P2560B modulates the output of a single PLL in order to
spread the bandwidth of a synthesized clock, thereby
decreasing 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 clock generators. Lowering EMI by increasing a signal’s
bandwidth is called spread spectrum clock generation.
The P2560B uses the most efficient and optimized
modulation profile approved by the FCC and is implemented
by using a proprietary all-digital method.
Applications
Product Description
The P2560B is a versatile spread spectrum frequency
modulator designed specifically for a wide range of clock
frequencies. It reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) at
the clock source allowing system-wide reduction of EMI of
downstream clock and data dependent signals. It allows
significant system cost savings by reducing the number of
The P2560B is targeted toward the notebook VGA chip and
other displays using an LVDS interface, PC peripheral
devices and embedded systems.
