- ConflictMineralStatement :
1.What happens if I run the part in an ambient environment which exceeds 85°C?
ADI does not guarantee specs on parts operating outside the temperature range listed in the product datasheet. The user may find that devices operate outside rated temperatures, but ADI does not recommend exceeding datasheet limits.
2.What is the difference between the coarse phase adjust and the fine delay adjust?
On the AD951x clock ICs, each output has a divider which features a coarse phase (or delay) adjust which allows for the selection of a given clock edge within the divide period as a delay or phase offset for that output. This feature adds no jitter to the clock output, but only allows for discrete delays in steps the size of the input clock period. However, certain outputs also have a feature called a fine delay adjust. This feature is only available on certain LVDS/CMOS outputs, and never on an LVPECL output.
3.What is the effect of distributing harmonically related clocks (on chip or on board) in terms of jitter?
Harmonically related clocks in general do not produce extra jitter. However, the variation in propagation times can cause edges to occur noncoincidentally. This can possibly produce jitter if the amplitudes of the various edges are too high at a given node.
4.May I use the AD9540 for spread spectrum clocking?
The AD9540 is capable of doing a frequency sweep function which can be used for the EMI reduction technique called Spread Spectrum Clock Generation. A triangular waveform is easy to achieve using the frequency accumulator available on that product. Non-triangular waveforms can also be constructed using the profile registers to drive changes to the "Delta Frequency Tuning" word which is used by the frequency accumulator.
5.My application has pretty tight power consumption requirements. I am very interested in the capabilities of the AD9510, but I don't need every feature. Is it possible to turn off the unused features and save power?
Yes. It is very possible to turn off unused sections of the AD951x chips. There is a high degree of configuration which allows unused inputs, outputs, and the PLL to be powered off when not needed or not used. The programming register table shows the bits which control these power downs.
