CDCVF2505: Setting for delay time

Part Number: CDCVF2505

Hi Team

I have a question with CDCVF2505.
Adjustment capacity of delay time is shown in Fig.10 of p.11.
Can I make a delay time of 2 nsec or more by increasing the capacity of CLKOUT?
Is there a maximum delay time? Is it possible to make a more delay time for any value depending on capacity?

Best Regards,
Ishiwata

  • Hi Ishiwata,

    1, It is impossible for 100 MHz. Fig. 10 shows a example for 100 MHz.
    100MHz period is 10 ns. From datasheet "7.7 Switching Characteristics", we know tr/tf max can reach 2 ns under "CL = 25 pF, VDD = 3.3 V ±0.3 V
    ". We can think of the Yx clock waveform had become a triangle-like waveform. So 25 pF load is the max limit for the 100 MHz application.

    2, Lower frequency would get more opportunity to delay longer with a litter bigger capacitance on Yn, not more on CLKOUT.

    3, Besides Yx delay, we also can consider CLKin delay with cap load. But it would degrade jitter performance.

    4, TI would not guarantee the usage over spec.

    Hope you can find a trade off method to get 2ns delay for your applications.

  • Hi Shawn - san

    I am sorry for delay in contacting you.
    I appreciate your answer.

    I have an additional question.

    What is the delay time when Yn = 3 pF and CLK = 60 MHz?
    I could not understand that I checked the data sheet.

    Is it possible to guarantee a delay of -2ns or more with the capacitor of CLKOUT pin
    when Yn = 3 pF and CLK = 60 MHz?

  • Hi Team

    I have no response.
    Please your answer.

  • Hi Ishiwata,
    When Yn = 3 pF, CLKOUT has a larger cap load, Yn output would be earlier than CLKOUT.
    For 60 MHz clock, period is 1/60 MHz = 16.7 ns. Earlier 1.4 ns looks like delay 16.7-1.4 = 15.3 ns.
