R31DS0179EU0119 Rev.1.19 Page 49 Feb 11, 2025 RC310xxB Datasheet 3. Functional Description The RC310xxB is a small-form factor, fully integrated, low-power, high performance frequency synthesizer with jitter attenuation and network synchronization capabilities. The device is optimized to deliver excellent phase noise as required for driving Ethernet PHYs/switch, ASICs, or FPGAs. The RC310xxB supports JEDEC JESD204B/C for converter synchronization, JEDEC JESD204B/C converter synchronization, IEEE1588, and SyncE for network-based synchronization. The following sections provide an overview of the RC310xxB.

3.1 Power-Up, Configuration, and Serial Interfaces

The RC310xxB can be powered up and configured in three ways: 1. From 1 of 27 internal non-volatile memory using OTP user configurations (UserCfgs) 2. From its target serial interface 3. From an external I2C EEPROM The RC310xxB supports three target serial interfaces (I2C, SPI, and SMBUS), and one serial host interface (I2C). These interfaces share the same pins, so only one is available at a time.

3.2 Input Clocks

The RC310xxB supports one crystal/reference input that is used as a reference to the analog PLL (APLL) and up to two differential or four single-ended clock inputs that are used as a reference to the digital PLL (DPLL) and support hitless reference switching.

3.2.1 Crystal/Reference Input

The crystal input supports crystal frequencies of 8MHz to 80MHz. It has programmable internal load capacitors to support crystals with CL = 6pF to 12pF. The crystal input may being over-driven with differential or single-ended inputs with proper external terminations. It also supports being over-driven with a clipped sine-wave TCXO with a 0.8VPP signal. The supported frequency range is same as reference clock inputs: 1kHz to 650MHz in differential mode, and 1kHz to 200MHz in single-ended mode. An available LOS monitor detects the loss of signal on crystal input.

3.2.2 Clock Inputs

There are two differential clock inputs that support LVDS, HCSL, or single-ended CMOS logic levels without external terminations. LVPECL or CML clock inputs may be supported with external terminations and/or AC coupling. Internal terminations are available for both HCSL and LVDS logic levels. Additionally, HCSL input terminations support both 100ohm and 85ohm operating environments. If set to single-ended type, the differential inputs turn into two single-ended inputs. CLKIN0 drives clkin0 internally, CLKIN0b drives clkin1 internally. CLKIN1 drives clkin2 internally, and CLKIN1b drives clkin3 internally. If set to differential type, CLKIN0/CLKIN0b pair drives clkin0 while CLKIN1/CLKIN1b pair drives clkin2. Internal biasing is available for AC-coupled applications. The two clock inputs can be left floating when unused. An available LOS monitor detects the loss of signal on crystal input. Frequency monitoring is also available on the clock inputs.

R31DS0179EU0119 Rev.1.19 Page 50 Feb 11, 2025 RC310xxB Datasheet

3.3 Clock Input Monitors

There are two types of reference clock monitors. The APLL input is monitored for Loss of Signal (LOS). While the DPLL clock inputs (CLKIN0, CLKIN0B, CLKIN1, CLKIN1B) each have LOS, activity and frequency monitoring. ▪ The LOS monitor detects missing edges over a window of several reference clock periods. For the best accuracy, it is recommended to program the window to be equal to at least 8 times that of the measuring clock period. ▪ The frequency monitor may be configured to measure the reference over a nominal 5ms time window in order to achieve ~1ppm granularity. ▪ The frequency monitor may be configured to measure the reference over a nominal 0.4s time window in order to achieve ~12ppb granularity.

3.4 APLL

The APLL is fractional LC-VCO based PLL with an operating range from 9.5GHz to 10.7GHz. Any of the available input clocks can be selected to drive the APLL, and the input clock can be frequency doubled for increased performance. The APLL is temperature compensated for the utmost frequency stability. For synchronous, deterministic requirements, the APLL also supports ZDB mode where CLKIN0 is used for the feedback input.

3.4.1 APLL Lock Detector

The APLL lock detector indicates whether the APLL is locked to a functioning crystal or reference input by monitoring the phase errors. Lock status can be sent on to a GPIO pin or in the register map.

3.5 DPLL

To operate as a network synchronizer or jitter attenuator, the DPLL and APLL are nested and form a fractional-N DPLL architecture. The System APLL locks to an input clock from a crystal or a crystal oscillator and generates an output clock of approximately 10GHz. The APLL uses a fractional feedback divider with 26-b numerator and fixed 26-b denominator to generate its feedback clock. The fractional feedback divide ratio is dynamically controlled by the DPLL. The DPLL also uses the APLL’s VCO clock to generate the fractional divided DPLL feedback clock. The DPLL fractional feedback divider, which is comprised of 48-b numerator and 48-b denominator, is static during normal operation. The DPLL can also be optionally disabled to operate the RC31008/31012A in synthesizer/DCO mode.

3.6 DPLL Reference Selection

The DPLL can lock to one of either the two differential or the four single ended input clocks. The reference selection can be either automatic or manual and when enabled, hitless switching results in negligible (< 100ps) output clock initial phase hit during reference switching or the DPLL exiting from holdover.

3.6.1 Manual Reference Selection

In manual mode, the selection is set either by GPIO or GPI pins or in the register map.

3.6.2 Automatic Reference Selection

In automatic mode, the selection is based on clock quality statuses and priorities. The quality statuses are from clock monitors. If two clock inputs are programmed to the same priority, the one with lower index number takes precedence (e.g., clkin0 takes precedence over clkin1). The automatic reference selection can either be revertive or non-revertive. In revertive mode, the reference clock that is qualified and of the highest priority is always selected. If a reference clock of higher priority than the currently selected one becomes qualified, the DPLL will switch to that reference clock; if a reference clock of equal or lower priority than the currently selected one becomes qualified, the DPLL will keep the current reference clock.

R31DS0179EU0119 Rev.1.19 Page 51 Feb 11, 2025 RC310xxB Datasheet In non-revertive mode, if there is a higher priority reference clock is coming back (from disqualified to qualified), the current selected reference clock remains selected unless it gets disqualified.

3.6.3 Hitless Reference Switching

If hitless switching is enabled, the output clock initial phase hit will be minimized (< 100ps) during reference switching or the DPLL exiting from holdover, while the input clock and output clock may no longer be aligned. If hitless switching is disabled, the output clock phase change slope is determined by DPLL loop characteristics and phase slope limit. Minimal initial phase hit of < 100ps can only be met during reference switching when the reference clocks are of same fractional frequency offset. If they are of different fractional frequency offset (up to 200ppm), the output clock phase will track to the new reference clock.

3.7 DPLL Operating Modes

The DPLL can operate in six different states: Free-run, Acquire, Normal, Holdover, Hitless-switch, and Write- frequency. The state transitions can either be manual or automatic.

3.7.1 Free-run

During power-on reset or VCO calibration or in synthesizer mode, the DPLL is in the free-run state. In this state, no reference clock is used and the output clocks are tracking the APLL reference clock.

3.7.2 Acquire

When there is at least one qualified reference, the DPLL will be tracking the selected qualified reference at the acquisition bandwidth and damping factor settings. If the reference clock is disqualified and no other qualified reference clock is available, the DPLL transitions to either the free-run state or the holdover state. When lock- detector detects a lock, DPLL transitions to the normal state.

3.7.3 Normal

In the normal state, the DPLL is tracking the selected reference clock with the normal locking bandwidth and damping factor settings. If the selected reference clock is disqualified, the state machine goes to either the holdover or the free-run state. At a reference switch, the state machine goes via the Holdover state to the Hitless Switch state or the Acquire state.

3.7.4 Holdover

In the holdover state, the DPLL output frequency will be held at the instantaneous value or a value that is low pass filtered and/or restored from the holdover history registers. The initial holdover accuracy is less than 50ppb.

3.7.5 Hitless Switch

At a hitless reference switch or a hitless transition from the holdover state, the DPLL’s TDC will measure the phase offset between the (newly) selected reference clock and the feedback clock, both of which are averaged. This offset is stored in an internal phase offset register. As a result, the output clocks will experience a minimal phase transient due to the reference switch or coming out of holdover. After the hitless switch procedure has finished, the state machine transitions to the Acquire state unless the reference clock fails.

3.7.6 Write Frequency

In the write-frequency mode the DPLL is not tracking any reference clock. The DPLL output frequency offset is directly controlled by preset value in the register map.

3.7.7 Manual Mode

The DPLL operation can be forced to the free-run, holdover, and write-frequency states.

R31DS0179EU0119 Rev.1.19 Page 52 Feb 11, 2025 RC310xxB Datasheet

3.8 DPLL Lock Detector

The DPLL lock detector declares lock when the phase from the phase detector remains within a programmable range for a programmable time interval both of which are set in the register map. This indicates that the DPLL is locked to the reference clock input. Once the phase output from the phase detector has been below the lock threshold for half of the programmed lock interval, the internal lock signal is asserted and the normal loop filter bandwidth and damping applied to the DPLL’s loop filter instead of the acquire filter settings.

3.9 Output Dividers

The RC310xxB provides four integer and three fractional output dividers.

3.9.1 Integer Output Dividers

All four Integer Output Dividers (IOD) are identical. They use a 25-bit divider to provide output frequencies of 1kHz to 650MHz from the VCO clock. Changing IOD values results in an immediate change to the new frequency. Glitch-less squelch and release of the IOD clock is supported. When enabled, this mimics a gapped clock behavior when an IOD frequency is changed.

3.9.1.1 SYSREF Generation

The RC310xxB supports pulse mode SYSREF generation within each IOD and the number of pulses is programmable. Partial SYSREF (generating SYSREF pulses on a subset of the outputs configured for SYSREF) is also supported. The phase of each IOD in the group can be independently adjusted if skew is intended.

3.9.2 Fractional Output Dividers

There are three Fractional Output Dividers (FOD). Each FOD can divide down the VCO clock to provide frequencies from 1kHz to 650MHz. Each FOD is implemented in two stages. The first stage is an 8-bit fractional divider with Digital Control Delay (DCD) correction. The DCD FOD allows a divide down of the VCO clock to 30MHz to 650MHz. A 17-bit second-stage integer divider with minimum divide ratio of 4 and a maximum ratio of 2*(217-1) allows output frequencies lower than 30MHz. For output frequencies above 30MHz, this second-stage divider may be bypassed.

3.9.2.1 Spread-Spectrum Clocking

FOD0 and FOD1 support Spread-Spectrum Clocking (SSC). When SSC is enabled, the spread spectrum engine modulates the FOD divider ratio with a triangular modulation pattern. The modulation can be programmed for either down-spread or center-spread. The SSC modulation frequency can be programmed to a value between 30kHz to 63kHz. The SSC amplitude can be programmed in 0.05% steps to -1.5% for down spread, or ±1.5% for center spread. When turning off SSC, the current modulation cycle completes, returning the output to the non-spreading frequency before the SSC stops.

3.9.2.2 Sync and Phase Adjustment

Each FOD can adjust its output clock phase with a step size of 1/4 VCO period up to about ±20ns. The adjustment can be of either positive or negative directions. IOD phase adjustment is same as FOD phase adjustment but with a step size of one VCO period.

3.9.2.3 Digital Controlled Oscillator (DCO) Mode

In DCO mode, a frequency control word is passed directly from an external processor or FPGA to the DPLL with a step size of 1/240 or 0.91 parts per trillion (ppt) and a full-range of ±244 parts per million (ppm) from the nominal DPLL output frequency. The frequency control word (FCW) is written to a 29-b wide register in two’s-complement and then applied to the DPLL feedback divider. The reference clock inputs are unused in this mode.
