LMK00306: The application for OSCin/OSCout/REFout

Hi Ella,

we have a specific targeting application for OSCin and OSCout.

This allows the use of a low cost external crystal vs. a more expensive XO.

In addition, I wonder if we have a specific targeting application for REFout. Do some applications require this CMOS reference output?

I'll have to check to see if there is something specific I don't know about.  However I do know that sometimes I wish for a mixed format buffer.  Most simple CMOS buffers require a CMOS input.  This CMOS output gives the option to drive a CMOS fan-out buffer in addition to the differential output buffer.  This is my guess as the use case.
