protection, a 1kΩ resistor can be tied from the CLK input to
ground.
CLK/nCLK INPUT:
For applications not requiring the use of the differential input,
both CLK and nCLK can be left floating. Though not required,
but for additional protection, a 1kΩ resistor can be tied from
CLK to ground.
LVCMOS CONTROL PINS:
All control pins have internal pull-ups or pull-downs; additional
resistance is not required but can be added for additional
protection. A 1kΩ resistor can be used.
