2308A-1DCG

The 2308A-1DCG is an advanced clock generator that provides a wide range of frequency and timing solutions offering exceptional performance and value. It is designed for applications in a variety of telecommunications, automotive, military, medical, industrial and commercial markets.

The 2308A-1DCG is a programmable digital clock generator, integrated on a single chip, which provides reliable, low-jitter clock generation, programmable clock selection and digital phase-locked loop (PLL) functionality. It is capable of generating up to 8 independently configurable output clocks with selectable frequencies, duty cycles and inactive outputs.

The 2308A-1DCG is capable of generating frequencies of up to 200 MHz, and provides programmable frequency resolution of two decimal digits. This programmability allows for more precise tuning and incremental control over output frequency generation. It also offers adjustable duty cycles (minimum frequency setting, minimum duty cycle setting and maximum duty cycle setting) for precise adjustment of output waveforms.

The 2308A-1DCG features a low jitter PLL, which is capable of locking up when frequency changes are made, providing highly accurate clock generation. The PLL can be used in both synchronization and frequency adjustments, meaning that the output frequencies can be tuned pico-second by pico-second instead of kilohertz by kilohertz. This allows for greater control and accuracy when controlling frequencies and timing in various applications.

The 2308A-1DCG can also be used in frequency synthesis, which is the process of generating an output clock frequency directly, rather than relying on a fixed input reference clock. This feature is particularly useful if the desired output frequency is not readily available. The user can program the exact output frequency, in the range of 1 MHz to 200 MHz, and the device will automatically generate the requested frequency.

In addition to frequency synthesis, the 2308A-1DCG also provides programmable termination, a feature that allows the user to generate output pulses with high accuracy. The termination feature is used to program the maximum and minimum pulse widths, and the pulse widths themselves can be adjusted in .05 ns increments. This offers a high level of accuracy for applications that require precise timing.

Overall, the 2308A-1DCG is a versatile, highly accurate clock generator that offers exceptional performance and value. Its programmable features make it well suited for applications in a variety of markets, and its frequency synthesis and termination features provide enhanced precision and accuracy for demanding applications.
