Description

The 8T49N287 has two independent, fractional-feedback PLLs that

can be used as jitter attenuators and frequency translators. It is

equipped with six integer and two fractional output dividers, allowing

the generation of up to 8 different output frequencies, ranging from

8kHz to 1GHz. Four of these frequencies are completely independent

of each other and the inputs. The other four are related frequencies.

The eight outputs may select among LVPECL, LVDS, HCSL, or

LVCMOS output levels.

This makes it ideal to be used in any frequency translation

application, including 1G, 10G, 40G and 100G Synchronous

Ethernet, OTN, and SONET/SDH, including ITU-T G.709 (2009) FEC

rates. The device may also behave as a frequency synthesizer.

The 8T49N287 accepts up to two differential or single-ended input

clocks and a crystal input. Each of the two internal PLLs can lock to

different input clocks which may be of independent frequencies. Each

PLL can use the other input for redundant backup of the primary

clock, but in this case, both input clocks must be related in frequency.

The device supports hitless reference switching between input clocks.

The device monitors all input clocks for Loss of Signal (LOS), and

generates an alarm when an input clock failure is detected. Automatic

and manual hitless reference switching options are supported. LOS

behavior can be set to support gapped or un-gapped clocks.

The 8T49N287 supports holdover for each PLL. The holdover has an

initial accuracy of ±50ppB from the point where the loss of all

applicable input reference(s) has been detected. It maintains a

historical average operating point for each PLL that may be returned

to in holdover at a limited phase slope.

The device places no constraints on input to output frequency conversion, supporting all FEC rates, including the new revision of ITU-T Recommendation G.709 (2009), most with 0ppm conversion error.

Each PLL has a register-selectable loop bandwidth from 1.4Hz to

360Hz.

Each output supports individual phase delay settings to allow

output-output alignment.

The device supports Output Enable inputs and Lock, Holdover and

LOS status outputs.

The device is programmable through an I2C interface. It also supports

I

2C master capability to allow the register configuration to be read

from an external EEPROM.
