## Description | ||
The CLKGEN01B is a low jitter, single output, I2C programmable clock generator designed for high-end ADC in SDR applications. It is suitable for generating a stable, low-noise clock signal with a wide tunable frequency range. | ||
|
||
![CLKGEN01B](/doc/img/CLKGEN01B_top_big.jpg) | ||
## Technical Parameters | ||
- **Power Voltage:** Max 5V, 160mA | ||
- **Core Power Voltage:** +1.8V, 2.7V, 3.3V (depends on chip type) | ||
- **Frequency Range:** 10 - 1500 MHz (depends on chip type, usually 10 - 810MHz) | ||
- **Phase Jitter:** < 0.3ps for Si570 types | ||
|
||
## Construction | ||
### Circuit | ||
The circuit is optimized for direct connection to a microprocessor with similar or higher output logic levels over the Si5XX chip. A voltage level translator is integrated for applications requiring different voltage levels. The internal lower voltage can be stabilized by the integrated linear voltage stabilizer. The module output is differential, but a single-sided CMOS output chip can be populated. | ||
|
||
### EMI Suppression | ||
The CLKGEN01B module can be a significant source of noise due to its signal generator nature. Proper EMI isolation is necessary, which can be achieved using a high conductive base like ALBASE. | ||
|
||
### Mechanical Construction | ||
The module is mounted on a base using four screws. To ensure proper shielding, it is recommended to secure all screws with a conductive base. | ||
|
||
## Testing | ||
### Setting | ||
On startup, a preset frequency is sent at the output. There is an option to calibrate the clock source via the I2C bus. | ||
|
||
## Software Tools | ||
In combination with other modules, the generator can be tuned via a computer. One simple solution is using the PIC18F4550v01A module and firmware, allowing the use of any software compatible with the design, such as USBSynth or CFGSR. | ||
