PRELIMINARY

The ICS844256 is a Crystal-to-LVDS Clock

Synthesizer/Fanout Buffer designed for SONET

and Gigabit Ethernet applications and is a

member of the HiperClockS™ family of High

Performance Clock Solutions from ICS. The

output frequency can be set using the frequency select

pins and a 25MHz crystal for Ethernet frequencies, or a

19.44MHz crystal for SONET. The low phase noise charac-

teristics of the ICS844256 make it an ideal clock for these

demanding applications.

• Six LVDS outputs

• Crystal oscillator interface

• Output frequency range: 62.5MHz to 622.08MHz

• Crystal input frequency range: 15.625MHz to 25.5MHz

• RMS phase jitter at 125MHz, using a 25MHz crystal

(1.875MHz to 20MHz): 0.48ps (typical)

• Full 3.3V or 3.3V core, 2.5V output supply mode

• 0°C to 70°C ambient operating temperature

• Industrial temperature information available upon request

• Available in both standard and lead-free RoHS-compliant

packages
