SNAS880A December 2024 – October 2025 LMK3C0105
PRODUCTION DATA
FOD0 supports spread-spectrum clocking (SSC). SSC can be used to reduce peak radiated emissions by modulating the output frequency. When SSC_EN (R4[0]) = '1', any outputs that are sourced from FOD0 have SSC. SSC_MOD_TYPE (R4[1]) selects between down-spread modulation (SSC_MOD_TYPE = 0) or center-spread modulation (SSC_MOD_TYPE = 1). The LMK3C0105 has four built-in down-spread SSC options, as well as a custom SSC option. SSC_CONFIG_SEL (R9[11:9]) selects between the custom or preconfigured options. The preconfigured options are optimized for a 200MHz output from FOD0. Table 7-4 details the register settings for the preconfigured SSC options.
| SSC_CONFIG_SEL | Down-spread SSC Depth |
|---|---|
| 0x0 | Custom, based on SSC_STEPS and SSC_STEP_SIZE |
| 0x1 | –0.10% |
| 0x2 | –0.25% |
| 0x3 | –0.30% |
| 0x4 | –0.50% |
| All other values | Reserved |
If Custom SSC is selected, then SSC_STEPS (R4[14:2]) and SSC_STEP_SIZE (R5) must be configured to set the modulation depth. Use Equation 5 or Equation 6 to determine the SSC_STEPS (R4[14:2]) register settings, and use Equation 7 or Equation 8 to determine the SSC_STEP_SIZE (R5) settings. Equation 7 is for down-spread SSC and Equation 8 is for center-spread SSC.

If using a mix of SSC on one output and no SSC on a different output, there can be crosstalk between the two outputs. Contact TI to request measurement data for a specific configuration when configuring SSC on only a single output.
When modifying the SSC settings, do not set SSC_EN to a '1' until the other SSC settings have been configured. Perform the following steps for configuring the SSC:
