LMK04610: System clock generation for KINTEX7 160T FPGA using lmk04610

Part Number: LMK04610

Hi,


QUESTION 1

LMK04610 is used to generate a 200MHz LVDS (4-mA HSDS or 6-mA HSDS) system clock to KINTEX7 160T FPGA. The output clock generated is having much higher differential output voltage swing than normal LVDS specification so what on board termination have to set at the input of KINTEX7 FPGA.

The FPGA LVDS specification for the clock input is as follows

QUESTION 2

A 100MHz LVCMOS VCXO is connected to the OSCIN pin of LMK04610. The buffered copy of this 100MHz LVCOMS clock is taken out at OSCOUT pin for power on FPGA system clock.
Then what to do with OSCOUT* pin (NC or Ground )?

Thanks in advance

  • Hello Deepak

    Please follow the termination proposal in the section 9.3.2.2 page 31 of the datasheet for driving LVDS inputs with HSDS output from LMK04610.

    If you use OSCOUT pin, you can leave the OSCOUT* pin NC without a PCB trace.

    Best regards
