ADS1299-4: an external clock other than 2.048MHz can be used for ADS1299-4?

Part Number: ADS1299-4
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS1299

Hello, TI experts

2.048MHz clock is not easy generated on our design. But 4.096MHz or 8.192MHz is easier for me, what about the noise performance if these clocks used for ADS1299?

    Our support staff is taking time with their families for the Independence Day holiday here in the US.  It may be July 8th before we can get back to you with help on your query.  We apologize in advance for the delay and will get back to you as soon as possible.

  • Hello Yang,

    Thank you for your post.

    Is there a reason you cannot use the internal 2.048-MHz oscillator? The internal oscillator can be selected by connecting the CLKSEL pin to DVDD through a pull-up resistor.

    If for some reason you require an external clock frequency, you must satisfy the master clock input frequency restrictions in the Recommended Operating Conditions table. This will require you to divide down the 4.096-MHz or 8.192-MHz clock options in your system.

    Thank you for the reply. Yes, external clock is generated from the PLL on MCU. It is 8.192MHz at least. So is there a TI chip can divide down the clock?

  • Hello Yang,

    Yes - TI does offer a variety of solutions for clock dividers. Please refer to the Clocks & Timing section of our product portfolio.

    Just to be clear, the ADS1299 contains its own internal 2.048-MHz clock, so the customer can use this instead of an external clock. 

    Best regards,
