The high-frequency capability and
extremely low jitter of this device, makes a great approach to clock precision,
high-frequency data converters without degradation to the signal-to-noise ratio.
Each of the four high-frequency clock outputs, and additional LOGICLK output with
larger divider range, is paired with a SYSREF output clock signal. The SYSREF signal
for JESD interfaces can either be internally generated or passed in as an input and
re-clocked to the device clocks. For data converter clocking applications, having
the jitter of the clock be less than the aperture jitter of the data converter is
critical. In applications where more than four data converters must be clocked, a
variety of cascading architectures can be developed using multiple devices to
distribute all the high-frequency clocks and SYSREF signals required. With low
jitter and noise floor, this device combined with an ultra-low noise reference clock
source is an exemplary selection for clocking data converters, especially when
sampling above 3GHz.
