EMI Reduction and Slow Mode Options

For EMI reduction, the CDC6Cx-Q1 has orderable options to reduce slew rate and increase rise and fall times. Slowing down the sharp rising and falling edges of a clock output, or lowering the output slew rate, decreases high-frequency harmonics, thereby lessening EMI. For applications requiring lesser EMI, select the appropriate rise and fall time options and see the CDC6Cx-Q1 CISPR25 Radiated Emission Performance Report for more EMI reduction strategies.

The CDC6Cx-Q1 has four slow mode options other than the normal mode. Based on the desired rise and fall times, select the right slow mode option and load capacitance value. Table 8-2 shows the minimum recommended capacitance for each slow mode.

Table 8-2 Minimum Recommended Capacitance per Slow Mode
SLOW MODE MINIMUM RECOMMENDED CAPACITANCE (pF)
Slow Mode 1 2
Slow Mode 2 5
Slow Mode 3 10
Slow Mode 4 15

Table 8-3 has recommended slow mode options for various load capacitance for a 25MHz output clock. For example, with load capacitance 15pF, Slow Mode 4 option results in the slowest rise and fall times. You can also select Slow Mode 1, Slow Mode 2, or Slow Mode 3 with 15pF but the rise and fall times are faster.

Table 8-3 Rise / Fall Time Options (25MHz Output)
SLOW MODE OPTION LOAD CAPACITANCE RISE AND FALL TIME (ns) WITH SLOW MODE (TYP / MAX) RISE AND FALL TIME (ns) WITH NORMAL MODE (TYP / MAX)
Slow Mode 1 2pF 0.81 / 1.06 0.62 / 1.01
Slow Mode 2 5pF 1.47 / 1.62 0.76 / 1.24
Slow Mode 3 10pF 2.44 / 2.61 1.4 / 1.7
Slow Mode 4 15pF 3.29 / 3.5 1.88 / 2.11
