3 Description

The LMK5C33216 is a high-performance network

clock generator, synchronizer, and jitter attenuator

with advanced reference clock selection and

hitless switching capabilities designed to meet

the stringent requirements of communications

infrastructure applications.

The LMK5C33216 integrates 3 DPLLs with

programmable loop bandwidth and no external loop

filters, maximizing flexibility and ease of use. Each

DPLL phase locks a paired APLL to a DPLL reference

input. The APLL reference determines the long term

frequency accuracy.

The 3 APLLs may operate independent of their paired

DPLL and be cascaded from another APLL to provide

programmable frequency translation. APLL3 features

ultra high performance PLL with TI's proprietary

Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) VCBO technology and

can generate output clocks with 40-fs RMS jitter

independent of the jitter and frequency of the XO and

reference inputs. APLL1 and APLL2 provide options

for additional frequency domains.

The device is fully programmable through I2C or SPI

interface. The onboard EEPROM can be used to

customize system start-up clocks.
