6.6 LVDS/LVPECL OUTPUTS
By default all the clock outputs are disabled until programmed.
Each LVDS or LVPECL output may be disabled individually by programming the CLKoutX_EN bits. All the
outputs may be disabled simultaneously by pulling the GOE pin low or programming EN_CLKout_Global
to 0.
The duty cycle of the LVDS and LVPECL clock outputs are shown in the table below.
VCO_DIV CLKoutX_MUX Duty Cycle
Any Divided, or Divided and Delayed 50%
2, 4, 6, 8 Any 50%
3 Bypassed, or Delayed 33%
5 Bypassed, or Delayed 40%
7 Bypassed, or Delayed 43%
6.7 GLOBAL CLOCK OUTPUT SYNCHRONIZATION
The SYNC* pin synchronizes the clock outputs. When the SYNC* pin is held in a logic low state, the
divided outputs are also held in a logic low state. The bypassed outputs will continue to operate normally.
Shortly after the SYNC* pin goes high, the divided clock outputs are activated and will all transition to a
high state simultaneously. All the outputs, divided and bypassed, will now be synchronized. Clocks in the
bypassed state are not affected by SYNC* and are always synchronized with the divided outputs.
The SYNC* pin must be held low for greater than one clock cycle of the output of the VCO Divider, also
known as the distribution path. Once this low event has been registered, the outputs will not reflect the low
state for four more cycles. This means that the outputs will be low on the fifth rising edge of the
distribution path. Similarly once the SYNC* pin becomes high, the outputs will not simultaneously
transition high until four more distribution path clock cycles have passed, which is the fifth rising edge of
the distribution path. See the timing diagram in Figure 6-1 for further detail. The clocks are programmed
as CLKout0_MUX = Bypassed, CLKout1_MUX = Divided, CLKout1_DIV = 2, CLKout2_MUX = Divided,
and CLKout2_DIV = 4. To synchronize the outputs, after the low SYNC* event has been registered, it is
not required to wait for the outputs to go low before SYNC* is set high.
Figure 6-1. SYNC* Timing Diagram
The SYNC* pin provides an internal pull-up resistor as shown on the functional block diagram. If the
SYNC* pin is not terminated externally the clock outputs will operate normally. If the SYNC* function is not
used, clock output synchronization is not ensured.
