High Speed Clock Output
The high speed clock output is provided for test and measurement purposes. A termination method for the
high speed clock output is shown in Figure 5. In addition to the AC coupling method shown, the device may
also be DC coupled with a 50Ω resistor connected to VCC. By using these termination methods, a nominal volt-
age swing of 200mV - 300mV, single-ended peak-to-peak, can be expected.
In order to reduce noise on the board, the clock output can be disabled by using the CKOE pin. CKOE is a
normal ECL input, which, when left floating, will default to a low level (output disabled). In order to set the
CKOE pin to a logic high, it can be tied directly to VCC without the need for a resistor.
