The Electrical Characteristics tables list verified specifications under the listed Recommended Operating Conditions except as otherwise modified or specified by the Electrical Characteristics Conditions or Notes. Typical specifications are estimations only and are not ensured.
See Power Supply Recommendations for more information on current consumption and power dissipation calculations. Characteristics for both LMK00301 and LMK00301A are the same unless specified under the test conditions.
Power supply ripple rejection, or PSRR, is defined as the single-sideband phase spur level (in dBc) modulated onto the clock output when a single-tone sinusoidal signal (ripple) is injected onto the Vcco supply. Assuming no amplitude modulation effects and small index modulation, the peak-to-peak deterministic jitter (DJ) can be calculated using the measured single-sideband phase spur level (PSRR) as follows: DJ (ps pk-pk) = [ (2 × 10(PSRR / 20)) / (π × fCLK) ] × 1E12
See Differential Voltage Measurement Terminology for definition of VID and VOD voltages.
The ESR requirements stated must be met to verify that the oscillator circuitry has no startup issues. However, lower ESR values for the crystal can be necessary to stay below the maximum power dissipation (drive level) specification of the crystal. Refer to Crystal Interface for crystal drive level considerations.
For the 100MHz and 156.25MHz clock input conditions, Additive RMS Jitter (JADD) is calculated using Method #1: JADD = SQRT(JOUT2 - JSOURCE2), where JOUT is the total RMS jitter measured at the output driver and JSOURCE is the RMS jitter of the clock source applied to CLKin. For the 625MHz clock input condition, Additive RMS Jitter is approximated using Method #2: JADD = SQRT(2×10dBc/10) / (2×π×fCLK), where dBc is the phase noise power of the Output Noise Floor integrated from 1 to 20MHz bandwidth. The phase noise power can be calculated as: dBc = Noise Floor + 10×log10(20MHz - 1MHz). The additive RMS jitter was approximated for 625MHz using Method #2 because the RMS jitter of the clock source was not sufficiently low enough to allow practical use of Method #1. Refer to the “Noise Floor vs. CLKin Slew Rate” and “RMS Jitter vs. CLKin Slew Rate” plots in Typical Characteristics.
156.25MHz LVPECL clock source from LMK03806 with 20MHz crystal reference (crystal part number: ECS-200-20-30BU-DU). Typical JSOURCE = 190 fs RMS (10kHz to 1MHz) and 195 fs RMS (12kHz to 20MHz). Refer to the LMK03806 data sheet for more information.
The noise floor of the output buffer is measured as the far-out phase noise of the buffer. Typically this offset is ≥ 10MHz, but for lower frequencies this measurement offset can be as low as 5MHz due to measurement equipment limitations.
Phase noise floor degrades as the clock input slew rate is reduced. Compared to a single-ended clock, a differential clock input (LVPECL, LVDS) is less susceptible to degradation in noise floor at lower slew rates due to the common mode noise rejection. Use the highest possible input slew rate for differential clocks to achieve optimal noise floor performance at the device outputs.
Specification is verified by characterization and is not tested in production.
See Typical Characteristics for output operation over frequency.
AC timing parameters for HCSL or CMOS are dependent on output capacitive loading.
Output Enable Time is the number of input clock cycles required for the output to be enabled after REFout_EN is pulled high. Similarly, Output Disable Time is the number of input clock cycles required for the output to be disabled after REFout_EN is pulled low. The REFout_EN signal must have an edge transition much faster than that of the input clock period for accurate measurement.
Output skew is the propagation delay difference between any two outputs with identical output buffer type and equal loading while operating at the same supply voltage and temperature conditions.
Parameter is specified by design, not tested in production.
100MHz and 156.25MHz input source from Rohde & Schwarz SMA100A Low-Noise Signal Generator and Sine-to-Square-wave Conversion block
For clock input frequency ≥ 100MHz, CLKinX can be driven with single-ended (LVCMOS) input swing up to 3.3Vpp. For clock input frequency < 100MHz, the single-ended input swing must be limited to 2Vpp maximum to prevent input saturation (refer to Driving the Clock Inputs for interfacing 2.5V/3.3V LVCMOS clock input < 100MHz to CLKinX).
