ICS280

The ICS280 field programmable spread spectrum clock synthesizer generates up to four high-quality,high-frequency clock outputs including multiple reference clocks from a low-frequency crystal input. It is designed to replace crystals, crystal oscillators and stand alone spread spectrum devices in most electronic systems.

Using ICS' VersaClock^TM software to configure PLLs and outputs, the ICS280 contains a One-Time Programmable (OTP) ROM for field programmability.Programming features include input/output frequencies, spread spectrum amount and eight selectable configuration registers.

Using Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) techniques, the ICS280 runs from a standard fundamental mode,inexpensive crystal, or clock. It can replace multiple crystals and oscillators, saving board space and cost.The ICS280 is also available in factory programmed custom versions for high-volume applications.
