The NBC12429 is a general purpose, PLL based synthesized clock source. The VCO will operate over a frequency range of 200 MHz to 400 MHz. The VCO frequency is sent to the N-output divider, where it can be configured to provide division ratios of 1, 2, 4, or 8. The VCO and output frequency can be programmed using the parallel or serial interfaces to the configuration logic. Output frequency steps of 1.0 MHz can be achieved using a 16 MHz crystal, depending on the output dividers. The PLL loop filter is fully integrated and does not require any external components. |
