23S09-1HDCGI8

There are a variety of clock, timing and frequency synthesizers on the market. The 23S09-1HDCGI8 Clock Generator and Frequency Synthesizer from Oki Semiconductor is a standout choice for applications in high-frequency, multi-phase clocking. This CMOS-based device is capable of generating up to 16 different clock frequencies, making it a flexible and powerful choice for a variety of applications.

The 23S09-1HDCGI8 converts an input signal into a programmable, multi-phase clock with a frequency range of up to 50 MHz. It is designed to be used in combinations with other devices, such as power sequencers, in clocking circuits. This feature makes the 23S09-1HDCGI8 especially suitable for applications where multiple clock signals must be generated from a single input frequency.

One of the most important features of the 23S09-1HDCGI8 is its ability to generate multiple clock outputs with a programmable frequency (phase) offset. This allows additional flexibility when designing complex circuity, such as in systems where multiple clock signals are required. Another benefit is the low power consumption, which makes the device suitable for portable and battery-operated applications.

The 23S09-1HDCGI8 features a fully static design and utilizes a few external components to operate. The device requires a single 2.5V to 5V voltage source and is supplied with two CMOS external control pins and a Clock Out pin. The Clock Out pin can be used to drive other components in a clock circuit, such as a power sequencer or logic devices.

The working principle of the 23S09-1HDCGI8 is relatively straightforward. The device receives an input frequency signal from an external clock source and then multiplies the frequency of this signal by a programmable fractional multiple (up to 16x). This process is referred to as frequency multiplication and is achieved through a process known as phase locked loop (PLL) technology. The outputs from the 23S09-1HDCGI8 can be used to drive any circuit that requires a clock signal, such as microprocessors and memory modules.

The 23S09-1HDCGI8 is a powerful choice for applications that require a variety of clocking signals. Its multiple clock outputs and programmable phase offset make it a great choice when designing complex circuits with multiple clock sources. Its low power consumption and static design make it suitable for a variety of applications, including portable and battery-powered devices. Thanks to its small size, it can easily be integrated into a variety of different circuits.
