ICS8442

A crystal can be characterized for either series or parallel mode

operation. The ICS8442 has a built-in crystal oscillator circuit.

This interface can accept either a series or parallel crystal without

additional components and generate frequencies with accuracy

suitable for most applications. Additional accuracy can be

achieved by adding two small capacitors C1 and C2 as shown in

Figure 3. Typical results using parallel 18pF crystals are shown

in Table 10.

A general LVDS interface is shown in

Figure 4. In a 100

Ω differ-

ential transmission line environment, LVDS drivers require a

matched load termination of 100

Ω across near the receiver in-

put. For a multiple LVDS outputs buffer, if only partial outputs

are used, it is recommended to terminate the un-used outputs.
