ispClock

IF (time = money), THEN (use ispClock)

Time waits for no silicon – Why waste time with zero-delay buffers, fan-out buffers, termination resistors, delay lines and serpentine clock trace layouts when ispClock devices can replace them all?

Even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day – ispClock devices can be programmed in-system to generate multiple clock frequencies and drive clock nets with different signalling requirements.

Time stream compensation – Compensate for output differences in clock trace lengths, precisely match trace impedances and drive clock nets with different signalling requirements – all while meeting stringent skew and jitter standards.

Features

  • Available in multiple formats: ispClock5600A for clock generation, ispClock5400D for differential clock distribution and ispClock5300S for single-ended clock distribution
  • Reduce board space – a single ispClock replaces multiple types of clock devices
  • Maximum cycle-cycle jitter 70 ps (peak-peak)
  • Maximum phase jitter 50 ps
  • Support multiple interface types including: LVTTL, LVCMOS, SSTL, HSTL, LVDS, LVPECL, Diff. SSTL, Diff. HSTL
