DP83822IF: XI input range in case of crystal

Part Number: DP83822IF

Hi all


Would you mind if we ask DP83822IF?

We would like to confirm the input voltage amplitude range at XI pin.

In case of Oscillator, there is the descpription on the datasheet.
If an external clock source is used, XI should be tied to the clock source and XO should be left floating.
The amplitude of the oscillator should be a nominal voltage of VDDIO.
So, in case of VDDIO=1.8V, the amplitude of the oscillator should be within 1.8V.

In case of Crystal, is it the same?


Kind regards,

Hirotaka Matsumoto

  • Hi Matsumoto-san,

    It is true that the amplitude of the oscillator should be within the VDDIO voltage provided by the PHY.

    The amplitude of the oscillator is determined by the oscillator selected. This is generally not a parameter specified by the crystal or the PHY. If the drive level and load capacitance are within the specification of the crystal the part will function properly.
