GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This user guide describes the hardware of the AD9550 eval-
uation board. The AD9550 evaluation board is a compact,
easy-to-use platform for evaluating all features of the AD9550
integer-N clock translator.
The AD9550 is a phase-locked loop (PLL) based clock trans-
lator designed to address the needs of wireline communication
and base station applications. The device employs an integer-N
PLL to accommodate the applicable frequency translation
requirements. It accepts a single-ended input reference signal
at the REF input.
The AD9550 is pin programmable, providing a matrix of
standard input/output frequency translations from a list of
15 possible input frequencies to a list of 52 possible output
frequency pairs (OUT1 and OUT2).
The AD9550 output is compatible with LVPECL, LVDS, or
single-ended CMOS logic levels, although the AD9550 is
implemented in a strictly CMOS process.
The AD9550 operates over the extended industrial temperature
range of −40°C to +85°C.
