ICS9250-13
Frequency Generator & Integrated Buffers for PENTIUM/Pro
TM
General Description
The
ICS9250-13
generates all clocks required for high speed
RISC or CISC microprocessor systems such as Intel PentiumPro
or Cyrix. Eight different reference frequency multiplying factors
are externally selectable with smooth frequency transitions.
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
ICS9250-13
employs a proprietary closed loop design, which tightly
controls the percentage of spreading over process and
temperature variations.
