Overview

Description

This is the evaluation board for the IDT 5P49V6968 VersaClock 6E programmable clock generator. With RMS phase jitter of less than 0.5ps over the full 12kHz to 20MHz integration range, the device meets the stringent jitter requirements of PCI Express® Gen 1/2/3, USB 3.0, and 1G/10G Ethernet.  
 

Features

  • 3 differential outputs capable of generating any output frequency using  IDT Timing Commander™ software
  • 8 additional copies of LP-HCSL outputs
  • SMA connectors for outputs
  • When the board is connected to a PC running IDT Timing Commander Software through USB, the device can be configured and programmed to generate frequencies with best-in-class performance
  • The 25MHz crystal installed on the board can source a reference frequency to the device when CLKIN/CLKINB is not used

VersaClock® 6E - High-performance Programmable Clock Generator

The VersaClock® 6E programmable clock generator devices offer a combination of low power, flexibility and performance for a wide range of applications. These features make it ideal for simplifying system design by replacing multiple discrete timing components and reducing bill of materials (BOM). The VersaClock 6E supports operating voltages from 1.8 to 3.3 V, differential (LVPECL/HCSL/LVDS/LP-HCSL) and LVCMOS output types, and fractional dividers to accurately generate virtually any frequency. Products satisfy system requirements from oscillator replacement to PCIe® Gen 1/2/3 and to communications applications, while consuming very little power.
