The 3.3 V CMOS drivers feature a CMOS drive strength that
allows the user to choose between a strong, high performance
CMOS driver or a lower power setting with less EMI and
crosstalk. The best setting is application dependent.
All outputs have an LVDS boost mode that provides
increased output amplitude in applications that require it.
For applications where LVPECL levels are required, the
user should choose the HSTL mode and then ac-couple
the output signal. See the Input/Output Termination
Recommendations section for recommended termination
schemes.
CLOCK DISTRIBUTION SYNCHRONIZATION
Divider Synchronization
The dividers in the channels can be synchronized with each other.
At power-up, they are held static until a sync signal is initiated
through serial port, EEPROM event, DPLL locked sync, or
a reference edge-initiated sync. This provides time for program-
ming the dividers and for the DPLL to lock before the outputs are
enabled. A user-initiated sync signal can also be supplied to the
dividers at any time (as a manual synchronization) using an M pin.
A channel can be programmed to ignore the sync function.
When programmed to ignore the sync, the channel sync block
issues a sync pulse immediately, and the channel ignores all
other sync signals.
The digital logic triggers a sync event from one of the following
sources:
Register programming through serial port
EEPROM programming
A multifunction pin configured for the SYNC signal
Other automatic conditions determined by the DPLL
configuration: DPLL lock or feedback divider pulse
