LMK00301: HCSL termination for LMK00301ARHST when Receiver is self biased to 1.85V

Part Number: LMK00301


Tool/software:

I'm planning to use the clock from the LMK00301ARHST as the input clock for a self-biased receiver.

 

My receiver can accept a voltage swing between 0.5V and 2.6V and is self-biased to 1.85V.

 

I intend to configure the LMK00301ARHST for HCSL output, with 50-ohm terminations to ground near the source, and AC couple it near the receiver.

 

This way, the receiver will receive the AC-coupled swing and bias it to its level. Please note that I don't have the option to add series resistors near the source.

 

Could you please confirm if the termination setup will work?

 

 

 

I'm doubtful about the swing LMK00301ARHST send meets the 0.5V expectation by receiver, could you please help me know if my understanding on termination is correct?
