ICS345
Triple PLL Field Programmable SS VersaClock Synthesizer
Description
The ICS345 field programmable clock synthesizer
generates up to nine high-quality, high-frequency clock
outputs including multiple reference clocks from a
low-frequency crystal or clock input. It is designed to
replace crystals and crystal oscillators in most
electronic systems.
Using ICS’
software to configure PLLs
and outputs, the ICS345 contains a One-Time
Programmable (OTP) ROM to allow field
programmability. Programming features include eight
selectable configuration registers, up to two sets of four
low-skew outputs, and optional Spread Spectrum
outputs.
Using Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) techniques, the
device runs from a standard fundamental mode,
inexpensive crystal, or clock. It can replace multiple
crystals and oscillators, saving board space and cost.
The ICS345 is also available in factory programmed
custom versions for high-volume applications.
