P2040C
Product Description
The P2040C is a selectable spread spectrum frequency
modulator designed specifically for digital flat panel
applications.
The
P2040C
reduces
electromagnetic
interference (EMI) at the clock source which provides
system wide reduction of EMI of all clock dependent
signals.
The P2040C allows significant system cost
savings by reducing the number of circuit board layers
and shielding that are traditionally required to pass EMI
regulations.
The P2040C uses the most efficient and optimized
modulation profile approved by the FCC and is
implemented in a proprietary all-digital method.
The P2040C modulates the output of a single PLL in
order to “spread” the bandwidth of a synthesized clock
and, more importantly, decreases 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 frequency generators. Lowering
EMI by increasing a signal’s bandwidth is called “spread
spectrum clock generation”.
Applications
The P2040C is targeted towards digital flat panel
applications for Notebook PCs, Palm-size PCs,
Office Automation Equipments, and LCD Monitors.
