MK2069-04
REV J 051310
Description
The MK2069-04 is a VCXO (Voltage Controlled Crystal
Oscillator) based clock generator that features a PLL
(Phase-Locked Loop) input reference divider and feedback
divider that have a wide numeric range selectable by the
user. This enables a complex PLL multiplication ratio that
can be used for translation between clock frequency
standards.
The on-chip VCXO produces a stable, low jitter output clock
using a phase detector frequency down to 8 kHz or lower.
This means the MK2069-04 can translate between clock
frequencies that have a low common denominator, such as
the 8 kHz frame clock common with telecom standards. The
MK2069-04 also provides jitter attenuation of the input
clock and can accept a low input frequency as well.
The device is optimized for user configurability by providing
access to all major PLL divider functions. No power-up
programming is needed as configuration is pin selected.
External VCXO loop filter components provide an additional
level of user configurability.
The MK2069-04 includes a lock detector (LD) output that
serves as a clock status monitor. The clear (CLR) input
enables rapid synchronization to the phase of a newly
selected input clock.
Features
Input clock frequency <1 kHz to 170 MHz
Output clock frequency of 500 kHz to 160 MHz
Clock translation examples:
T1 (1.544 MHz) to/from E1 (2.048 MHz)
T3 (44.736 MHz) to/from E3 (34.368 MHz)
OC-3 (155.52 MHz) to/from T1 (1.544 MHz)
CCIR-601 (27 MHz) to/from SMPTE 274M (74.125
MHz)
Jitter attenuation of input clock provided by VCXO circuit.
Jitter transfer characteristics user configured through
external loop filter component selection.
Low jitter and phase noise generation.
PLL lock status output
PLL Clear function allows seamless synchronizing to an
altered input clock phase
2nd PLL provides frequency translation of VCXO PLL
output (VCLK) to a higher or alternate output frequency
(TCLK).
Device will free-run in the absence of an input clock
based on VCXO frequency.
