the FB and REF inputs and aligns their rising edges to ensure
that all outputs have precise phase alignment.
Clock skews are advanced by ±6 time units (tU) when using an
output selected for zero skew as the feedback. A wider range of
delays is possible if the output connected to FB is also skewed.
Since “Zero Skew”, +tU, and –tU are defined relative to output
groups, and since the PLL aligns the rising edges of REF and
FB, you can create wider output skews by proper selection of the
xFn inputs. For example, a +10 tU between REF and 3Qx is
achieved by connecting 1Q0 to FB and setting 1F0 = 1F1 = GND,
3F0 = MID, and 3F1 = High. (Since FB aligns at –4 tU and 3Qx
skews to +6 tU, a total of +10 tU skew is realized.) Many other
configurations are realized by skewing both the outputs used as
the FB input and skewing the other outputs.
Figure 4 shows an example of the invert function of the PSCB.
In this example the 4Q0 output used as the FB input is
programmed for invert (4F0 = 4F1 = HIGH) while the other three
pairs of outputs are programmed for zero skew. When 4F0 and
4F1 are tied high, 4Q0 and 4Q1 become inverted zero phase
outputs. The PLL aligns the rising edge of the FB input with the
rising edge of the REF. This causes the 1Q, 2Q, and 3Q outputs
to become the “inverted” outputs with respect to the REF input.
It is possible to have 2 inverted and 6 non-inverted outputs or 6
inverted and 2 non-inverted outputs by selecting the output
connected to FB. The correct configuration is determined by the
need for more (or fewer) inverted outputs. 1Q, 2Q, and 3Q
outputs can also be skewed to compensate for varying trace
delays independent of inversion on 4Q.

Figure 5 shows the PSCB configured as a clock multiplier. The
3Q0 output is programmed to divide by four and is sent to FB.
This causes the PLL to increase its frequency until the 3Q0 and
3Q1 outputs are locked at 20 MHz while the 1Qx and 2Qx
outputs run at 80 MHz. The 4Q0 and 4Q1 outputs are
programmed to divide by two, that results in a 40 MHz waveform
at these outputs. Note that the 20 and 40 MHz clocks fall simul-
taneously and are out of phase on their rising edge. This enables
the designer to use the rising edges of the 1
⁄
2 frequency and
1
⁄
4
frequency outputs without concern for rising edge skew. The
2Q0, 2Q1, 1Q0, and 1Q1 outputs run at 80 MHz and are skewed
by programming their select inputs accordingly. Note that the FS
pin is wired for 80 MHz operation because that is the frequency
of the fastest output.
Figure 6 demonstrates the PSCB in a clock divider application.
2Q0 is fed back to the FB input and programmed for zero skew.
3Qx is programmed to divide by four. 4Qx is programmed to
divide by two. Note that the falling edges of the 4Qx and 3Qx
outputs are aligned. This enables the use of rising edges of the
1
⁄
2 frequency and
1
⁄
4 frequency without concern for skew
mismatch. The 1Qx outputs are programmed to zero skew and
are aligned with the 2Qx outputs. In this example, the FS input
is grounded to configure the device in the 15 MHz to 30 MHz
