6.4 Clock Reference Interface
The REF_IN pin provides the ICS1893AF Clock Reference Interface. The ICS1893AF requires a single
clock reference with a frequency of 25 MHz 50 parts per million. This accuracy is necessary to meet the
interface requirements of the ISO/IEEE 8802-3 standard, specifically clauses 22.2.2.1 and 24.2.3.4. The
ICS1893AF supports two clock source configurations: a CMOS oscillator or a CMOS driver. The input to
REF_IN is CMOS (10% to 90% VDD), not TTL. Alternately, a 25MHz crystal may be used. The Oscillator
specifications are shown in Table 6.1.
