AN93892 - Solving PCI Express Timing Challenges with CY27410

AN93892 introduces Cypress’s latest CY27410 clock device that solves timing challenges of PCI Express interfacing. The device can generate eight differential and four single-ended clock outputs up to 700 MHz with subpicosecond jitter. From a high-speed system design point of view, CY27410 simplifies the clock-buffering scheme, where a single clock source can be fanned out to multiple PCI Express inputs in multifunction module systems.

Introduction

Cypress’s latest generation four-PLL clock device CY27410 is ideal for PCI Express (PCIe)-based multifunction module systems. CY27410 can generate eight differential and four single-ended clock outputs at up to 700 MHz with sub-picosecond jitter.
