REFCLK Guidelines
Overview
This section focuses on the selection of the reference clock source or oscillator. An oscillator
is characterized by:
•
Frequency range
•
Output voltage swing
•
Jitter (deterministic, random, peak-to-peak)
•
Rise and fall times
•
Supply voltage and current
•
Noise specification
•
Duty cycle and duty-cycle tolerance
•
Frequency stability
These characteristics are selection criteria when choosing an oscillator for a GTP
transceiver design.
illustrates the convention for the single-ended clock input voltage swing, peak-
to-peak as used in the GTP transceiver portion of the
Virtex-5 Data Sheet
.
illustrates the differential clock input voltage swing, peak-to-peak, which is
defined as MGTREFCLKP – MGTREFCLKN.
