The CDCE937 and CDCEL937 devices are modular PLL-based low cost, high-performance, programmable clock synthesizers, multipliers and dividers. They generate up to 7 output clocks from a single input frequency. Each output can be programmed in-system for any clock frequency up to 230 MHz, using up to three independent configurable PLLs.

The CDCEx937 has separate output supply pins, VDDOUT, which is 1.8 V for CDCEL937 and to 2.5 V to 3.3 V for CDCE937.

The input accepts an external crystal or LVCMOS clock signal. If an external crystal is used, an on-chip load capacitor is adequate for most applications. The value of the load capacitor is programmable from 0 to 20 pF. Additionally, an on-chip VCXO is selectable which allows synchronization of the output frequency to an external control signal, that is, PWM signal.
