Overview

The OT3127 is a 128MHz output PLL function. High range M divider allows this PLL to be driven by low power non-overtone crystal oscillator circuits if required. This IP is designed for the ams amsh18 0.18µ digital or high voltage CMOS processes. Both digital and analog parts of the IP are isolated in deep N wells for noise isolation.

Key features

  • Fixed N=1, and P=2 dividers.
  • M integer can be set for 32 or 16.
  • 128MHz output frequency.
  • 15pS RMS jitter at 128MHz.
  • Lock-detect function.
  • Bypass function.
  • Well defined startup behavior.
  • -40°C to 140°C temperature operation.
  • Available divider selection program.
  • Small cell area: 0.04mm2 in 0.18µ CMOS.
  • 1.2mW typical power dissipation.
  • 1.8V digital and analog supplies.
  • 0.18µ CMOS process compatibility.

Creating a Frequency Plan for a System using a PLL

How do you ensure that every part of a system receives the clock it needs—without wasting power or sacrificing performance? The answer lies in creating a well-structured frequency plan built around a PLL.

Specifying a PLL Part 3: Jitter Budgeting for Synthesis

This white paper is aimed at system architects and physical implementation leaders working on the design of SoCs. It can be confusing to understand the impact of different jitter sources and how to calculate a jitter budget when specifying a digital system. This white paper explains how jitter changes the period of a clock and how to ensure that jitter has correctly been accounted for in the calculations for timing closure.

Specifying a PLL Part 2: Jitter Basics

This article explains a some of the key terminology and parameters commonly used to describe jitter. It will also help clarify the most important parameters for a some PLL applications, allowing the designer to better understand what is required from a PLL.

Specifying a PLL Part 1: Calculating PLL Clock Spur Requirements from ADC or DAC SFDR

In high end RF systems, such as 5G radios, the requirements are so stringent that the source of this strongest unwanted tone can be the PLL. This article outlines how spurs in the input clock to the ADC or DAC may limit the SFDR. This in turn will set the requirements for the spurs for the input clock (from a PLL), in order to achieve a specific SFDR.

Achieving Groundbreaking Performance with a Digital PLL

This article compares analog, first-generation digital, and second-generation digital PLLs. It evaluates which type of PLL may be best in which situation. It further discloses a roadmap into other application areas, including general purpose / logic clocking, and regular low-jitter PLLs.
