ESCRIPTION
The M928-02 is a PLL (Phase Locked Loop) based
clock generator that uses an
internal VCSO (Voltage Controlled
SAW Oscillator) to produce a very
low jitter output clock. From the
M928-02-622.0800
, an output clock
frequency of
622.08
MHz is
provided from eight LVPECL clock
output pairs. (Other frequencies are available; consult
factory.) The accuracy of the output frequency is
assured by the internal PLL that phase-locks the
internal VCSO to the reference input frequency
(
19.44
MHz for the
M928-02-622.0800
). The input reference
can either be an external crystal, utilizing the internal
crystal oscillator, or a stable external clock source
such as a packaged crystal oscillator.

ESCRIPTION
The M928-02 is a PLL (Phase Locked Loop) based
clock generator that generates output clocks
synchronized to an input reference clock.
The M928-02 combines the flexibility of a VCSO
(Voltage Controlled SAW Oscillator) with the stability of
a crystal oscillator.
Input Reference
The
19.44
MHz input reference can either be an external,
discrete crystal device or a stable external clock source
such as a packaged crystal oscillator:

NFORMATION
This section includes information on the optional
external crystal and on the external loop filter.
The subsections on the loop filter provide example
component values and also briefly describe the SAW
PLL simulator tool and additional application
information available at www.icst.com.
External Crystal Specifications
If an external crystal is used with the on-chip crystal
oscillator circuit (XTAL OSC), the external crystal
should have the following general specifications:
Crystal Specifications
Parameter
Min Typ Max Unit
AT-cut quartz
Fundamental
16

50
•
If an external crystal is used with the on-chip crystal
oscillator circuit (XTAL OSC), the external crystal
should be a parallel-resonant, fundamental mode
crystal. Apply it to the
XTAL_1 / REF_IN
and
XTAL_2
input
pins. External crystal load capacitors are also
required.
•
If an external LVCMOS/LVTTL clock source is used,
apply it to the
XTAL_1 / REF_IN
input pin.
In either case, the reference clock is supplied directly to
the phase detector of the PLL.
The PLL
The PLL (Phase Locked Loop) includes the phase
detector, the VCSO, and a feedback divider (labeled
“M Divider”).
The feedback divider is a digital circuit that divides the
VCSO output frequency by a numerical value “M” in
order to match the input reference frequency.
By controlling the frequency and phase of the VCSO,
the phase detector precisely locks the frequency and
phase of the feedback divider output to that of the input
reference. This creates an output frequency that is a
multiple of the reference frequency (which is output
from the VCSO).
The relationship between the VCSO output frequency,
the M Divider, and the input reference frequency is
defined as follows:
Fvcso = M
×
Fxtal
For the
M928-02-622.0800
(see “Ordering Information” on pg. 6):
•
VCSO output frequency =
622.08
MHz
•
M =

•
Input reference frequency =
19.44

External load capacitors C1 and C2 present a load of 15 pf
to the crystal (they are seen in series by the crystal through
the common ground connection). With the additional of PCB
trace capacitance and M928-02 input capacitance, the total
load to the crystal is about 18 pf.
The VCSO center output frequency of
622.08

enables the product of

to fall within the lock range of the VCSO.

External Loop Filter
To provide stable PLL operation, and thereby a low jitter
output clock, the M928-02 requires the use of an
external loop filter. This is provided via the provided

additional product information.
Figure 5: External Loop Filter
The loop filter is implemented as a differential circuit
to minimize system noise interference. Due to the
differential signal path design, the implementation
requires two identical complementary RC filters as
shown here.
PLL Simulator Tool Available
A free PC software utility is available on the ICS website
(www.icst.com). The M2000 Timing Modules PLL
Simulator is a downloadable application that simulates
PLL jitter and wander transfer characteristics. This
enables the user to set appropriate external loop
component values in a given application.
Refer to the SAW PLL Simulator Software web page at
www.icst.com/products/calculators/m2000filterSWdesc.htm
