FEATURES
Frequency range 50 ~ 120MHz.
Internal phase locked loop will allow spread spec-
trum modulation on reference clock to pass to out-
puts.
Zero input - output delay.
Less than 700 ps device - device skew.
Less than 250 ps skew between outputs.
Less than 100 ps cycle - cycle jitter.
2.5V or 3.3V power supply operation.
Available in 8-Pin SOIC or MSOP package.
DESCRIPTION
The PLL102-10 is a high performance, low skew, low
jitter zero delay buffer designed to distribute high
speed clocks and is available in 8-pin SOIC or MSOP
package. It has two outputs that are synchronized with
the input. The synchronization is established via
CLKOUT feed back to the input of the PLL. Since the
skew between the input and output is less than
350
ps, the device acts as a zero delay buffer.

Output-Output Skew
REF
CLKOUT
The skew between CLKOUT and the CLK(1-2) outputs is not dynamically adjusted by the
PLL. Since CLKOUT is one of the inputs to the PLL, zero phase difference is maintained
from REF to CLKOUT. If all outputs are equally loaded, zero phase difference will be
maintained from REF to all outputs.
If applications requiring zero output-output skew, all the outputs must be equally loaded.
If the CLK(1-2) outputs are less loaded than CLKOUT, CLK(1-2) outputs will lead it; if the
CLK(1-2) is more loaded than CLKOUT, CLK(1-2) will lag the CLKOUT.
Since the CLKOUT and the CLK(1-2) outputs are identical, they all start at the same time,
but difference loads cause them to have different rise times and different times crossing
the measurement thresholds.
