General Description

The ICS8430S803I is a PLL-based clock generator specifically

designed for Cavium Networks SoC processors. This high

performance device is optimized to generate the processor core

reference clock, the DDR reference clocks, the PCI/PCI-X bus

clocks, and the clocks for both the Gigabit Ethernet MAC and PHY.

The clock generator offers low-jitter, low-skew clock outputs, and

edge rates that easily meet the input requirements for the

CN30XX/CN31XX/CN38XX/CN58XX processors. The output

frequencies are generated from a 25MHz external input source or an

external 25MHz parallel resonant crystal. The extended temperature

range of the ICS8430S803I supports telecommunication,

networking, and storage requirements.
