CDCE949-Q1: Clock & timing forum

Part Number: CDCE949-Q1

Hi,

In my design ,  CDCE949-Q1 input is a 25MHz cystal, the Y3 output is also 25MHz, which is used for Ethernet PHY. In datasheet, CDCE949-Q1 output clock jitter is Peak-to -Peak period jitter:

but the Ehternet PHY input clock jitter parameter is RMS phase jitter, which should be <3.0ps

so whether CDCE949-Q1 output phase jitter can meet this requierment? what's the phase jitter value of CDCE949-Q1 output clocks?

Thank you.

Regards.

Gavin

  • Hi Gavin,

    Y1 can meet the requirement if you have configured Y1 for PLL bypass mode. However, Y3 is synthesized from the PLL, it would not meet the requirement. I measured >>3psRMS for a similar configuration, but some optimization may be possible.

    Kind regards,
    Lane
