Spread Spectrum Clock Generator

The MK5818 generates a low EMI output Clock and a reference Clock from a Clock or crystal input. The part is designed to lower EMI through the application of spreading a Clock Using IDTs proprietary mix of Analog and digital Phase locked loop (PLL) technology, the device spreads the frequency spectrum of the output, reducing the frequency amplitude peaks by several dB depending on spread range. The MK5818 offers a range of down spread from a high speed Clock or crystal input. The MK5818 generates one modulated (SSCLK) and unmodulated (REFCLK) Clock and is compatible with Cypress CY25818. The modulated Clock is controlled by the select pin, and the unmodulated Clock has the same frequency as the input Clock or crystal. Packaged in 8-pin SOIC Input frequency range 8 to 16 MHz Provides modulated and unmodulated Clocks Accepts a Clock or crystal input Provides down spread modulation Provides power down function Reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) by 8 to 16 db Operating voltage of 3.3 V Advanced, low-power CMOS process Available in Pb (lead) free package, RoHS compliant By Integrated Device Technology
