LMK04826: SYSREF generation with PLLs unlocked

Part Number: LMK04826
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LMK04828

Hi Team,

We are using the LMK04826 on a number of our boards and we are seeing some peculiar behavior from it using a bypass configuration (dividers only in clock path, PLLs not used/locked).

Specifically, the SDCLKout1 SYSREF pins go from this

to being in phase as shown below when the register 0x106 bit 0 is set to 1 then written back to 0 (similar behavior seen for SDCLKout3).

Is this expected behavior? Are the SYSREF pins only designed to be used when the PLLs are locked?

Sincerely,

Olu

    What is the output format?  If it is LVDS or HSDS which is AC coupled, and a shunt 560 ohm resistor is placed across the LMK04828 output pins, this this issue go away?

    I've some some cases where some loads of an AC coupled LVDS/HSDS output need a 560 ohm shunt to start-up properly.
