Integrated Circuit Systems, Inc. ICS9161A Dual Programmable Graphics Frequency Generator General Description Features The ICS9161A is a fully programmable graphics clock generator. It can generate user-specified clock frequencies using an externally generated input reference or a single crystal. The output frequency is programmed by entering a 24-bit digital word through the serial port. Two fully userprogrammable phase-locked loops are offered in a single package. One PLL is designed to drive the memory clock, while the second drives the video clock. The outputs may be changed on-the-fly to any desired frequency between 390 kHz and 120 MHz. The ICS9161A is ideally suited for any design where multiple or varying frequencies are required. * * * This part is ideal for graphics applications. It generates low jitter, high speed pixel clocks. It can be used to replace multiple, expensive high speed crystal oscillators. The flexibility of the device allows it to generate non-standard graphics clocks. * * * * * * * * Pin-for-pin and function compatible with ICD2061A Dual programmable graphics clock generator Memory and video clocks are individually programmable on-the-fly Ideal for designs where multiple or varying frequencies are required Increased frequency resolution from optional predivide by 2 on the M counter Output enable feature available for tristating outputs Independent clock outputs range from 390 kHz to 120 MHz for VDD >4.75V Power-down capabilities Low power, high speed 0.8 CMOS technology Glitch-free transitions Available in 16-pin, 300-mil SOIC or PDIP package The ICS9161A is also ideal in disk drives. It can generate zone clocks for constant density recording schemes. The low profile, 16-pin SOIC or PDIP package and low jitter outputs are especially attractive in board space critical disk drives. The leader in the area of multiple output clocks on a single chip, ICS has been shipping graphics frequency generators since October, 1990, and is constantly improving the phaselocked loop. The ICS9161A incorporates a patented fourth generation PLL that offers the best jitter performance available.

Power. 2 ICS9161A Register Definitions As seen in the VCLK Selection table, OE acts to tristate the output. The PD# pin forces the VCLK signal high while powering down the part. The EXTCLK pin will only be multiplexed in when EXTSEL and SEL0 are logic 0 and SEL1 is a logic 1. The register file consists of the following six registers: Register Addressing Address (A2 - A0) Register 000 001 010 011 100 110 REG0 REG1 REG2 MREG PWRDWN CNTL REG The memory clock outputs are controlled by PD# and OE as follows: Definition Video Clock Register 1 Video Clock Register 2 Video Clock Register 3 Memory Register Divisor for Power-down mode Control Register MCLK Selection The ICS9161A places the three video clock registers and the memory clock register in a known state upon power-up. The registers are initialized based on the state of the INIT1 and INIT0 pins at application of power to the device. The INIT pins must ramp up with VDD if a logical 1 on either pin is required. These input pins are internally pulled down and will default to a logical 0 if left unconnected. Register Initialization INIT0 MREG REG0 REG1 REG2 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 32.500 40.000 50.350 56.644 25.175 25.175 40.000 40.000 28.322 28.322 28.322 50.350 28.322 28.322 28.322 50.350 When the ICS9161A is operating, the video clock output is controlled with a combination of the SEL0, SEL1, PD# and OE pins. The video clock is also multiplexed to an external clock (EXTCLK) which can be selected with the EXTSEL pin. The VCLK Selection Table shows how VCLK is selected. VCLK Selection PD# EXTSEL 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 x 0 1 1 1 1 1 x x x x 0 1 x SEL1 SEL0 x x 0 0 1 1 1 x x 0 1 0 x 1 MCLK 0 1 1 x 1 0 Tristate MREG PWRDWN When MCLK or the active VCLK register is being reprogrammed, then the reference signal is multiplexed glitchfree to the output during the first time-out interval. A second time-Register out interval is also required to allow the VCO to settle. During this period, the reference signal is multiplexed to the appropriate output signal. Register Selection OE PD# The Clock Select pins SEL0 and SEL1 have two purposes. In serial programming mode, these pins act as the clock and data pins. New data bits come in on SEL1 and these bits are clocked in by a signal on SEL0. While these pins are acquiring new information, the VCLK signal remains unchanged. When SEL0 and SEL1 are acting as register selects, a time-out interval is required to determine whether the user is selecting a new register or wants to program the part. During this initial time-out, the VCLK signal remains at its previous frequency. At the end of this time-out interval, a new register is selected. A second time-out interval is required to allow the VCO to settle to its new value. During this period of time, typically 5ms, the input reference signal is multiplexed to the VCLK signal. The registers are initialized as follows: INIT1 OE VCLK Tristate Forced High REG0 REG1 EXTCLK REG2 REG2 3 ICS9161A Control Register Definitions The control register allows the user to adjust various internal options. The register is defined as follows: Bit 21 20 Bit Name C5 C4 Default Value Description 0 This bit determines which power-down mode the PD# pin will implement. Power-down mode 1, C5=0, forces the MCLK signals to be a function of the power-down register. Power-down mode 2, C5=1, turns off the crystal and disables all outputs. 0 This bit determines which clock is multiplexed to VCLK during frequency changes. C4=0 multiplexes the reference frequency to the VCLK output. C4=1 multiplexes MCLK to the VCLK output for applications where the graphics controller cannot run as slow as fREF. 19 C3 0 This bit determines the length of the time-out interval. The time-out interval is derived from the MCLK VCO. If this VCO is programmed to certain extremes, the time-out interval may be too short. C3=0, normal time-out. C3=1, doubled time-out interval. 18 C2 0 Reserved, must be set to 0. 17 C1 1 This bit adjusts the duty cycle. C1=0 causes a 1ns decrease in output high time. C1=1 causes no adjustment. If the load capacitance is high, the adjustment can bring the duty cycle closer to 50%. 16 C0 0 Reserved, must be set to 0. 15 NS2 0 Acts on register 2. NS2=0 prescales the N counter by 2. NS2=1 prescales the P counter value to 4. 14 NS1 0 Acts on register 1. NS1=0 prescales the N counter by 2. NS1=1 prescales the P counter value to 4. 13 NS0 0 Acts on register 0. NS1=0 prescales the N counter by 2. NS0=1 prescales the P counter value to 4. 4 ICS9161A Serial Programming Architecture Since the VCLK registers are selected by the SEL0 and SEL1 pins, and since any change in their state may affect the output frequency, new data input on the selection bits is only permitted to pass through the decode logic after the watchdog timer has timed out. This delay of SEL0 or SEL1 data permits a serial program cycle to occur without affecting the current register selection. The pins SEL0 and SEL1 perform the dual functions of selecting registers and serial programming. In serial programming mode, SEL0 acts as a clock pin while SEL1 acts as the data pin. The ICS9161A-01 may not be serially programmed when in power-down mode. In order to program a particular register, an unlocking sequence must occur. The unlocking sequence is detailed in the following timing diagram: Serial Data Register The serial data is clocked into the serial data register in the order described in Figure 1 below (Serial Data Timing). The serial data is sent as follows: An individual data bit is sampled on the rising edge of CLK. The complement of the data bit must be sampled on the previous falling edge of CLK. The setup and hold time requirements must be met on both CLK edges. For specifics on timing, see the timing diagrams on pages 10, 11 and 12. The bits are shifted in this order: a start bit, 21 data bits, 3 address bits (which designate the desired register), and a stop bit. A total of 24 bits must always be loaded into the serial data register or an error is issued. Following the entry of the last data bit, a stop bit or load command is issued by bringing DATA high and toggling CLK high-to-low and low-to-high. The unlocking mechanism then resets itself following the load. Only after a time-out period are the SEL0 and SEL1 pins allowed to return to a register selection function. The unlock sequence consists of at least five low-to-high transitions of CLK while data is high, followed immediately by a single low-to-high transition while data is low. Following this unlock sequence, data can be loaded into the serial data register. This programming must include the start bit, shown in Figure 1. Following any transition of CLK or DATA, the watchdog timer is reset and begins counting. The watchdog timer ensures that successive rising edges of CLK and DATA do not violate the time-out specification of 2ms. If a time-out occurs, the lock mechanism is reset and the data in the serial data register is ignored. Figure 1: Serial Data Timing 5 ICS9161A The equations used to determine the oscillator frequency are: The serial data register is exactly 24 bits long, enough to accept the data being sent. The stop bit acts as a load command that passes the contents of the Serial Data Register into the register indicated by the three address bits. If a stop bit is not received after the serial register is full, and more data is sent, all data in the register is ignored and an error issued. If correct data is received, then the unlocking mechanism re-arms, all data in the serial data register is ignored, and an error is issued. N=N + 3 M=M + 2 FVCO=Prescale N/M FREF where 3 M 129 and 4 N 130 and prescale=2 or 4, as set in the control register (Where N is the VCO divider & M is the reference divider) The value of FVCO must remain between 50 MHz and 120 MHz. As a result, for output frequencies below 50 MHz, FVCO must be brought into range. To achieve this, an output divisor is selected by setting the values of the Mux Field (R) as follows: ERROUT# Operation Any error in programming the ICS9161A is signaled by ERROUT#. When the pin goes low, an error has been detected. It stays low until the next unlock sequence. The signal is invoked for any of the following errors: incorrect start bit, incorrect data encoding, incorrect length of data word, and incorrect stop bit. Output Divisor Programming the ICS9161A The ICS9161A has a wide operating range, but it is recommended that it is operated within the following limits: 3.15V< VDD <5.25V VDD supply voltage 1 MHz <FREF <60 MHz FREF=Input Reference Frequency M=Reference divide 3 to 129 FVCO=VCO output frequency FCLK=output frequency 200 kHz <FREF/M <5 MHz 50 MHz < FVCO <120 MHz FCLK 120 MHz Index (I) N counter value (N') Mux (R) M counter value (M') Divisor 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 Unlike the ICD2061A, the ICS9161As VCO does not require tuning to place it in certain ranges. The ICS9161As VCO will operate from 50 MHz to 120 MHz without adjusting the VCO gain. However, to maintain compatibility, the I bits are programmed as in the ICD2061A. These bits are dummy bits except for the following two cases: Index Field (I) The frequency of the programmable oscillator FVCO is determined by the following fields: Field R # of Bits 4 7 3 7 I VCLK FVCO MCLK FVCO 1110 1111 Turn off VCLK Mux MCLK to VLCK 50 - 120 MHz 50 - 120 MHz When the index field is set to 1111, VCLK is turned off and both channels run from the same MCLK VCO. This is done in an effort to reduce jitter, which may increase when VCOs run at 2n multiples of one another. If the two outputs have to be multiples of one another, it is best to mux MCLK over to the output of the VCLK VCO and to power-down the VCLK VCO. The multiplexed frequency will be divided down by the correct divisor (M) and output on VCLK. Where the least significant bit is the last bit of M and the most significant bit is the first bit of I. 6 ICS9161A Power Management Issues Power-down mode 2 Power-down mode 1 When there is no need for any output during power-down, an alternate mode is available which will completely shut down all outputs and the reference oscillator, but still preserves all register contents. Power-down mode 2 in invoked by first programming the power-down bit in the CNTL register and then pulling the PD# pin low. The ICS9161A contains a mechanism to reduce the quiescent power when stand-by operation is desired. Power-down mode 1 is invoked by polling PD# low and having the proper CNTL register bit set to zero. In this mode, VCOs are shut down, the VCLK output is forced high, and the MCLK output is set to a user-defined low frequency value to refresh dynamic RAM. The PD# pin The PD# pin has a standard internal pull-up resistor during normal operation. When the chip goes into power-down mode 1 or 2, the normal pull-up resistor is dynamically switched to a weak pull-up, which reduces power consumption. If the PD# pin is allowed to float after it has been pulled down, the weak pull-up will bring the signal high and allow the device to resume operation. The power-down MCLK value is determined by the following equation: MCLKPD = FREF/(PWRDWN register divisor value) The power-down register divisor is determined according to the 4-bit word programmed into the PWRDWN register (see table below).
