CDCI6214: Jitter of two-divided frequency.

Part Number: CDCI6214

Hi there,

customer requirement: 

input 52Mhz LVDS CLK, output 26Mhz LVDS CLK, is it achievable by CDCI6214?

if yes, what's the expected jitter caused by CDCI6214?

BRs,

  • Shubiao,

    Yes, this frequency plan can be achieved with CDCI6214. I would anticipate around 500-650fs RMS jitter 1kHz-20MHz when using the PLL. You could also bypass the PLL entirely and just use the device as a 1:4 LVDS fanout buffer/divide-by-2 block, which would have a noise floor around -158dBc/Hz - I can't estimate the jitter without knowing the reference characteristics.
