ICS9248- 81
Frequency Generator & Integrated Buffers
General Description
The
ICS9248-81
is the single chip clock solution for Desktop/
Notebook designs using the SIS style chipset. It provides all
necessary clock signals for such a system.
Spread spectrum may be enabled through I
2
C programming.
Spread spectrum typically reduces system EMI by 8dB to
10dB. This simplifies EMI qualification without resorting to
board design iterations or costly shielding. The
ICS9248-81
employs a proprietary closed loop design, which tightly
controls the percentage of spreading over process and
temperature variations.
Serial programming I
2
C interface allows changing functions,
stop clock programming and frequency selection. The SD_SEL
latched input allows the SDRAM frequency to follow the
CPUCLK frequency(SD_SEL=1) or other clock frequencies
(SD_SEL=0)
