9.4 Device Functional Modes
The following section describes the settings to enable various modes of operation for the LMK0482x family. See
and
for visual diagrams of each mode.
The LMK0482x Family is a flexible device that can be configured for many different use cases. The following
simplified block diagrams help show the user the different use cases of the device.
9.4.1 DUAL PLL
illustrates the typical use case of the LMK0482x family in dual loop mode. In dual loop mode the
reference to PLL1 from CLKin0, CLKin1, or CLKin2. An external VCXO or tunable crystal will be used to provide
feedback for the first PLL and a reference to the second PLL. This first PLL cleans the jitter with the VCXO or low
cost tunable crystal by using a narrow loop bandwidth. The VCXO or tunable crystal output may be buffered
through the OSCout port. The VCXO or tunable crystal is used as the reference to PLL2 and may be doubled
using the frequency doubler. The internal VCO drives up to seven divide/delay blocks which drive up to 14 clock
outputs.
Hitless switching and holdover functionality are optionally available when the input reference clock is lost.
Holdover works by fixing the tuning voltage of PLL1 to the VCXO or tunable crystal.
It is also possible to use an external VCO in place of PLL2's internal VCO. In this case one less CLKin is
available as a reference.
LMK04821 includes VCO1 divider on VCO1 output.
