3 Description

The LMK3H0102 is a 2-output PCIe Gen 1 to

Gen 6 compliant reference-less clock generator

with Spread Spectrum Clocking (SSC) support.

The part is based on TI proprietary Bulk Acoustic

Wave (BAW) technology and provides ±25ppm

clock outputs without any crystal or external clock

reference. The device can provide two SSC clocks,

two non-SSC clocks, or one SSC clock and one

non-SSC clock at the same time. The device

meets the full PCIe compliance from Gen 1 to

Gen 6, including Common Clock with or without

SSC, Separate Reference No Spread (SRNS), and

Separate Reference Independent Spread (SRIS).

The device can be easily configured through either

GPIO pins or I2C interface. An external DC/DC can

be used to power the device. Refer to Power Supply

Recommendations for detailed guidelines on power

supply filtering and sourcing from DC/DC.
