Renesas Electronics VersaClock 3S Clock Generators

Renesas Electronics VersaClock 3S Programmable Clock Generators are designed for low-power, consumer, and high-performance PCI Express applications. The generators feature a three PLL architecture design with each PLL individually programmable. This allows for up to three (5P35021) or six (5P35023) unique frequency outputs. The generators feature Proactive Power Saving (PPS), Performance-Power Balancing (PPB), Overshot Reduction Technology (ORT), and Extreme Low Power DCO.

Features

Two Differential Outputs with SMA connector
One LVCMOS Output with SMA connector
USB interface connects to PC system for configuration
When the board is connected to a PC running Timing Commander Software through USB, the device can be configured and programmed to generate frequencies with best-in-class performance
Configurable OE pin function as OE, PD#, PPS or DFC control function
Configurable PLL bandwidth/minimizes jitter peaking

PPS: Proactive Power Saving features save power during the end device power down mode
PPB: Performance- Power Balancing feature allows minimum power consumption based on required performance
Spread Spectrum clock support to lower system EMI
Store user configuration into OTP memory
I²C interface
DFC: Dynamic Frequency Control feature allows user to dynamically switch between and up to 4 difference frequencies smoothly
