Overview

Description

The RC32012A regenerates and distributes ultra-low jitter clock outputs and features up to 4 independent frequency domains that can be either locked to the external reference clock or locked to a free-run crystal or oscillator. Digital PLLs (DPLLs) support hitless reference switching between references from redundant timing sources. The device supports multiple independent timing channels for: IEEE 1588 clock synthesis; SyncE clock generation; jitter attenuation and radio clock generation including SYSREF generation for converters. Input-to-input, input-to-output and output-to-output phase skew can all be precisely managed.  The device outputs ultra-low-jitter clocks that can directly synchronize SERDES running at up to 56Gbps; as well as CPRI/OBSAI, SONET/SDH ADC/DAC. The device is ideal for use in 100G/200G/400G/800G telecom switch line cards, fabric cards and wireless small cell applications.

Features

  • Two timing channels and four independent frequency domains
  • Output jitter below 100fs RMS
  • Digital PLLs (DPLLs) lock to any frequency from 0.5kHz to 1GHz
  • DPLLs / Digitally Controlled Oscillators (DCOs) generate any frequency from 0.5Hz to 1GHz
  • DCO outputs can be aligned in phase and frequency with the outputs of any DPLL or DCO
  • Can be used as a jitter attenuator, clock generator, or synchronizer
  • Reference monitors qualify/disqualify references depending on LOS, activity, frequency monitoring and/or LOS input pins
  • Automatic reference selection state machines select the active reference for each DPLL based on the reference monitors, priority tables, revertive / non-revertive and other programmable settings
  • Device requires a crystal oscillator or fundamental-mode crystal: 25MHz to 54MHz
  • The device can configure itself automatically after reset via:
    • Internal Customer-programmable One-Time Programmable memory 
    • Standard external I2C EPROM via separate I2C Master Port
