Functional Description
The CY23FS08 is a FailSafe™ Zero Delay Buffer with two
reference clock inputs and eight phase-aligned outputs. The
device provides an optimum solution for applications where
continuous operation is required in the event of a primary clock
failure.
Continuous, glitch-free operation is achieved by using a DCXO,
which serves as a redundant clock source in the event of a
reference clock failure by maintaining the last frequency and
phase information of the reference clock.
The unique feature of the CY23FS08 is that the DCXO is in fact
the primary clocking source, which is synchronized
(phase-aligned) to the external reference clock. When this
external clock is restored, the DCXO automatically
resynchronizes to the external clock.
The frequency of the crystal connected to the DCXO, must be
chosen to be an integer factor of the frequency of the reference
clock. This factor is set by four select lines: S[4:1]. see
Configuration Table
on page 4. The CY23FS08 has three split
power supplies; one for core, another for Bank A outputs, and
the third for Bank B outputs. Each output power supply, except
VDDC can be connected to either 2.5 V or 3.3 V. VDDC is the
power supply pin for internal circuits and must be connected to
3.3 V.

FailSafe Function
The CY23FS08 is targeted at clock distribution applications that
requires or may require continued operation if the main reference
clock fails. Existing approaches to this requirement have used
multiple reference clocks with either internal or external methods
to switch between references. The problem with this technique
is that it leads to interruptions (or glitches) when transitioning
from one reference to another, often requiring complex external
circuitry or software to maintain system stability. The technique
implemented in this design completely eliminates any switching
of references to the PLL, greatly simplifying system design.
The CY23FS08 PLL is driven by the crystal oscillator, which is
phase-aligned to an external reference clock so that the output
of the device is effectively phase-aligned to reference via the
external feedback loop. This is accomplished by using a digitally
controlled capacitor array to pull the crystal frequency over an
approximate range of ±300 ppm from its nominal frequency.
In this mode, if the reference frequency fails (that is, stops or
disappears), the DCXO maintains its last setting and a flag signal
(FAIL#/SAFE) is set to indicate failure of the reference clock.
The CY23FS08 provides four select bits, S1 through S4 to
control the reference to crystal frequency ratio. The DCXO is
internally tuned to the phase and frequency of the external
reference only when the reference frequency divided by this ratio
is within the DCXO capture range. If the frequency is out of
range, a flag is set on the FAIL#/SAFE pin notifying the system
that the selected reference is not valid. If the reference moves in
range, then the flag is cleared, indicating to the system that the
selected reference is valid.
