ICS1493-17
Clock Synthesizer for Portable Systems
Description
Features
The ICS1493-17 is a low-power, low-jitter clock
synthesizer designed to replace multiple crystals and
• Extremely low operating current (11 mA)
• Packaged in 20-pin QFN (Pb-free)
oscillators in portable audio/video systems. The device
generates a 37 MHz processor clock, a 48 MHz USB
clock, a fixed 22.5792 MHz audio clock, a selectable
24.576 MHz or 22.5792 MHz audio clock, and a 27MHz
reference clock for video. Using ICS’ proprietary mix of
analog and digital Phase-Locked Loop (PLL)
technology, the device spreads the frequency spectrum
of the 37 MHz output, reducing the peak amplitude of
by up to 16 dB. An output enable (OE) pin lowers the
chip power consumption while tri-stating all outputs.
• Input crystal or clock frequency of 27 MHz
• Output reference frequency of 27 MHz
• Fixed output frequencies of 37 MHz, 48 MHz and
22.5792 MHz
• Selectable output frequency of either 22.5792 MHz
or 24.576 MHz
• Configurable spread spectrum on 37 MHz output
• Operating core voltage of 1.8 V
• Output voltage of 1.8 V or 2.5 V
• Advanced, low-power CMOS process
