IDT5T9821NLI8

Clock/Timing - Clock Generators, PLLs, Frequency Synthesizers are ubiquitous in today\'s electronics and are used in a wide range of applications–from automotive, consumer and industrial to aerospace and defense. IDT5T9821NLI8 is a highly-integrated low-power clock generate solution that provides design engineers a wide variety of popular differential and single-ended clock outputs along with programmable skew between outputs to minimize board or system level clock signal timing problems. This device has EMI reduction circuitry to minimize radiated emissions from clock generators.

The IDT5T9821NLI8 features several features to optimize system designs. First, designers can choose between a variety of clock outputs to match their desired applications. This includes differential output (LVPECL, LVDS, HCSL, and HCSL-Muxed), single-ended outputs (LVCMOS, LVTTL, SSTL2, SSTL3, and PCIe), and spread spectrum output that is used primarily to reduce EMI on high speed outputs. The multiple spread spectrum modes are particularly important when designing high-speed clock trees that cause EMI-sensitive problems. Additionally, the IDT5T9821NLI8 has integrated adaptive-skew programming that automatically adjusts skew between two clock outputs, reducing system jitter due to trace lengths and other signal integrity issues.

Additional device management functions are integrated into the IDT5T9821NLI8 clock generator. This includes a temperature monitor, voltage monitor, and system clocking information. These features provide designers with a great level of diagnostic insight into their system, allowing for increased fault resolution and faster debug. As a result, the IDT5T9821NLI8 device is well suited for applications where reliable clock and timing signals are critical, such as in automotive, industrial and avionics systems.

In addition to clock generating, the IDT5T9821NLI8 also features several features to increase performance. The device has a wide range of configurable features available, including frequency selection, output drive strength, output type, power-down modes, and spread spectrum settings. This enables engineers to optimize designs for their desired application with the right combination of output type, timing characteristics, jitter performance, EMI performance, and power efficiency.

To summarize, the IDT5T9821NLI8 clock generator is a highly integrated, low-power solution for Clock/Timing - Clock Generators, PLLs, Frequency Synthesizers applications. It features multiple clock outputs, integrated adaptive skew, EMI reduction circuitry, temperature and voltage sensors, and configurable options for optimized frequency, drive strength, output type, power-down modes and spread spectrum settings. All of this offers engineers design flexibility, robust system diagnostics, and enhanced system performance.
