ICS525-03

Stresses above the ratings listed below can cause permanent damage to the ICS525-03. These ratings, which are  tandard values for ICS commercially rated parts, are stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device at these  or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied.  xposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods can affect product reliability. Electrical  arameters are guaranteed only over the recommended operating temperature range.

The ICS525-03 are the most flexible way to generate a high-quality, high-accuracy, high-frequency clock output from a PECL input. The name OSCaR stands for OSCillator Replacement, as they are designed to replace crystal oscillators in almost any electronic system. The user can configure the device to produce nearly any output frequency from any input frequency by grounding or floating the select pins. Neither microcontroller, software, nor device programmer are needed to set the frequency. Using Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) techniques, the device accepts a PECL clock to produce output clocks up to 250 MHz, keeping them frequency locked together. Resistors are for PECL outputs only.

For simple multipliers to produce common frequencies, refer to the LOCO^TM family of parts, which are smaller and more cost effective.

This product of the ICS525-03 is intended for clock generation. It has low output jitter (variation in the output period), but input to output skew and jitter are not defined nor guaranteed.
