DS90UB953-Q1: EMI issues with 954/953 at 1.6Ghz and above with external refrence clock

Part Number: DS90UB953-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DS90UB954-Q1

Hello,

we are using  954/953 combination and seeing EMI issue at 1.6Ghz and above frequencies with external refrence clock . We changed external clock to internal clock , observed improvement a lot .

Please let us know if we have any suggestions to improve EMI emissions with external ref clock.

Thanks

  • Hello,

    System level EMI and EMC are very dependent on PCB design, connector cable, shielding and grounding techniques.
    For mitigation without changing PCB structure you can adjust DS90UB954-Q1 REFCLK frequency to 24 MHz or 26 MHz to shift any freqeuncy related spectrum. Alternately you can apply SSC at REFCLK input of 25 MHz +/- 0.5%. This will introduce spread spectrum on back channel and forward channel.
