Mouser now stocks the Texas Instruments LMK03318 Ultra-Low-Noise PLLatinum
clock generator with one fractional-N frequency synthesizer with integrated
VCO.
The devices also have a flexible clock distribution / fanout, and
pin-selectable configuration states stored in on-chip EEPROM. The device can
generate multiple clocks for various multi-gigabit serial interfaces and
digital devices. The multiple clock generation reduces BOM cost and board
area and improves reliability by replacing multiple oscillators and clock
distribution devices. The ultra-low jitter reduces the bit-error rate (BER)
in high-speed serial links.
Typical applications include switches and routers; network and telecom line
cards; servers and storage systems; and wireless base stations.
Evaluation Module - Also available from Mouser stock, the LMK03318EVM
Evaluation Module (EVM) provides a complete clocking platform to evaluate
the 100fs RMS jitter performance and pin-/software-configuration modes of
LMK03318.
