P2560B
Features
FCC approved method of EMI attenuation
Generates a low EMI spread spectrum and a non-
spread reference signal of
frequency
Optimized for input frequency range from 20 to 32
MHz
Internal loop filter minimizes external components
and board space
Two selectable spread ranges
Low inherent cycle-to-cycle jitter
3.3 V or 5 V operating voltage
CMOS/TTL compatible inputs and outputs
Ultra low power CMOS design: 5.50 mA @3.3 V
Supports notebook VGA and other LCD timing
controller applications
SSON pin for Spread Spectrum On/Off and
Standby Mode controls
Available in 8-pin SOIC and TSSOP
the input
clock
(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 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
The P2560B is targeted toward the notebook VGA chip
and other displays using an LVDS interface, PC
peripheral devices, and embedded systems

Description
Crystal connection or external reference frequency input. This pin has dual
functions. It can be connected to either an external crystal or an external
reference clock.
Crystal connection. If using an external reference, this pin must be left
unconnected.
Digital logic input used to select normal output mode or divide-by-2 output mode.
When this pin is HIGH, the frequency of the output clock is the same as the input
clock frequency. When it is tied LOW, the output frequency is half the input clock
frequency. This pin has an internal pull-up resistor.
Ground to entire chip.
Digital logic input used to select Spreading Range (Refer Spread Deviation
Table). This pin has an internal pull-up resistor.
Digital logic input used to enable Spread Spectrum function (Active LOW).
Spread Spectrum function enabled when LOW, disabled when HIGH. This pin
has an internal pull-low resistor.
Spread spectrum low EMI output.
Power supply for the entire chip (5V).
