3 Description

The CDCE6214Q1TM is a 4-channel, ultra-low power,

medium grade jitter, clock generator for automotive

application that can generate five independent clock

outputs selectable between various modes of drivers.

The input source can be a single-ended or differential

input clock source, or a crystal. The CDCE6214Q1TM

features a frac-N PLL to synthesize unrelated base

frequency from any input frequency.
