The MK2049-34 is a Phase-Locked Loop (PLL)
based clock synthesizer that accepts multiple input
frequencies. With an 8 kHz clock input as a
reference, the MK2049-34 generates T1, E1, T3,
E3, ISDN, xDSL, and other communications
frequencies. This allows for the generation of
clocks frequency-locked and phase-locked to an
8 kHz backplane clock, simplifying clock
synchronization in communications systems. The
MK2049-34 can also accept a T1 or E1 input clock
and provide the same output for loop timing. All
outputs are frequency locked together and to the
input.
This part also has a jitter-attenuated Buffer
capability. In this mode, the MK2049-34 is ideal
for filtering jitter from 27 MHz video clocks or
other clocks with high jitter.
ICS/MicroClock can customize these devices for
many other different frequencies. Contact your
ICS/MicroClock representative for more details.

OPERATING MODES
The MK2049-34 has three operating modes: External, Loop Timing, and Buffer. Although each mode
uses an input clock to generate various output clocks, there are important differences in their input and
crystal requirements.
External Mode
The MK2049-34 accepts an external 8 kHz clock and will produce a number of common communication
clock frequencies. The 8 kHz input clock does not need to have a 50% duty cycle; a "high" or "on" pulse
as narrow as 10 ns is acceptable. In the MK2049-34, the rising edges of CLK and CLK/2 are both aligned
with the rising edge of the 8 kHz ICLK; refer to Figure 1 for more details.
Loop Timing Mode
This mode can be used to remove the jitter from standard high-frequency communication clocks. For T1
and E1 inputs, the CLK/2 output will be the same as the input frequency, with CLK at twice the input
frequency.
Buffer Mode
Unlike the other two modes that accept only a single specified input frequency, Buffer Mode will accept a
wider range of input clocks. The input jitter is attenuated, and the outputs on CLK and CLK/2 also
provide the option of getting x1, x2, x4, or 1/2 of the input frequency. For example, this mode can be
used to remove the jitter from a 27 MHz clock, generating low-jitter 27 MHz and 13.5 MHz outputs.
INPUT AND OUTPUT SYNCHRONIZATION
As shown in the tables on page 4, the MK2049-34 offers a Zero Delay feature in all selections. There is an
internal feedback path between ICLK and the output clocks, providing a fixed phase relationship between
the input and output, a requirement in many communications systems.
The rising edge of ICLK will be aligned with the rising edges of CLK and CLK/2. (8 kHz is used in this
illustration, but the same is true for the selections in the Loop Timing and Buffer modes.)

Measuring Zero Delay on the MK2049
The MK2049-34 produces low-jitter output clocks. In addition, this part has a very low bandwidth--on the
order of a few Hertz. Since most 8 kHz input clocks will have high jitter, this can make measuring the
input-to-output skew (zero delay feature) very difficult. The MK2049 is designed to reject the input jitter;
when the input and output clocks are both displayed on an oscilloscope, they may appear not to be locked
because the scope trigger point is constantly changing with the input jitter. In fact, the input and output
clocks probably are locked, and the MK2049 will have zero delay to the average position of the 8 kHz input
clock. In order to see this clearly, a low jitter 8 kHz input clock is necessary. Most lab frequency sources
are NOT SUITABLE for this since they have high jitter at low frequencies.
Frequency Locking to the Input
In all modes, the output clocks are frequency-locked to the input. The output will remain at the specified
output frequency as long as the combined variation of the input frequency and the crystal does not exceed
100 ppm. For example, if the crystal can vary 40 ppm (initial accuracy + temperature + aging), then the
input frequency can vary by up to 60 ppm and still have the output clock remain frequency-locked.

PC BOARD LAYOUT
A proper board layout is critical to the successful use of the MK2049. In particular, the CAP1 and CAP2 pins
are very sensitive to noise and leakage (CAP2 at pin 18 is the most sensitive). Traces must be as short as
possible and the two capacitors and resistor must be mounted next to the device as shown below. The
capacitor shown between pins 15 and 17, and the one between pins 4 and 7 are the power supply decoupling
capacitors. The high frequency output clocks on pins 8 and 9 should have a series termination of 33
connected close to the pin. Additional improvements will come from keeping all components on the same
side of the board, minimizing vias through other signal layers, and routing other signals away from the
MK2049. You may also refer to MAN05 for additional suggestions on layout of the crystal section.
The crystal traces should include pads for small capacitors from X1 and X2 to ground; these are used to
adjust the stray capacitance of the board to match the crystal load capacitance. The typical telecom reference
frequency is accurate to much less than 1 ppm, so the MK2049 may lock and run properly even if the board
capacitance is not adjusted with these fixed capacitors. However, ICS MicroClock recommends that the
adjustment capacitors be included to minimize the effects of variation in individual crystals, temperature,
and aging. The value of these capacitors (typically 0-4 pF) is determined once for a given board layout,
using the procedure described in the section titled "Determining the Crystal Frequency Adjustment
Capacitors".

Crystal Operation
The MK2049 operates by phase locking the input signal to a VCXO which consists of the special
recommended crystal and the integrated VCXO oscillator circuit on the MK2049. To achieve the best
performance and reliability, the layout guidelines shown on the previous page must be closely followed.
The frequency of oscillation of a quartz crystal is determined by its cut and by the load capacitors connected
to it. The MK2049 has variable load capacitors on-chip which "pull", or change the frequency of the crystal.
External stray capacitance must be kept to a minimum to ensure maximum pullability of the crystal. To
achieve this, the layout should use short traces between the MK2049 and the crystal.
The external loop filter should be connected between CAP1 and CAP2 as shown in Figure 3 below, and as
close to the chip as possible. High quality ceramic capacitors are recommended. DO NOT use any type of
polarized or electrolytic capacitor. Ceramic capacitors should have C0G or NP0 dielectric. Another
alternative is the Panasonic PPS polymer dielectric series; their part number for the 0.1 F cap is
ECHU1C104JB5. Avoid high-K dielectrics like Z5U and X7R; these and other ceramics which have
piezolectric properties allow mechanical vibration in the system to increase the output jitter because the
mechanical energy is converted directly to voltage noise on the VCO input.
The MK2049-34 requires a minimum number of external components for proper operation. Decoupling
capacitors of 0.01F must be connected between VDD and GND pins close to the chip (especially pins 4
and 7, 15 and 17), and 33
series terminating resistors should be used on clock outputs with traces longer
than 1 inch (assuming 50
traces). The selection of additional external components is described in the
following sections.

Determining the Crystal Frequency Adjustment Capacitors
To determine the crystal adjustment capacitor values, you will need a PC board of your final layout, a
frequency counter capable of less than 1 ppm resolution and accuracy, two power supplies, and some samples
of the crystals which you plan to use in production, along with measured initial accuracy for each crystal at
the specified load capacitance, CL .
To determine the value of the crystal capacitors:
1. Connect VDD of the MK2049 to 3.3 V. Connect pin 18 of the MK2049 to the second power supply.
Adjust the voltage on pin 18 to 0.0 V. Measure and record the frequency of the CLK or CLK/2 output .
2. Adjust the voltage on pin 18 to 3.3 V. Measure and record the frequency of the same output.
To calculate the centering error:
Centering error = 106
(f
3.3V
-
f
target
) + (f
0.0V
- f
target
)
f
target
- errorxtal
Where ftarget = 44.736000 MHz, for example, and errorxtal = actual initial accuracy (in ppm) of the
crystal being measured.
If the centering error is less than 15 ppm, no adjustment is needed. If the centering error is more than
15 ppm negative, the PC board has too much stray capacitance and will need to be redone with a new layout
to reduce stray capacitance. (The crystal may be re-specified to a lower load capacitance instead. Contact ICS
MicroClock for details.) If the centering error is more than 15 ppm positive, add identical fixed centering
capacitors from each crystal pin to ground. The value for each of these caps (in pF) is given by:
External Capacitor = 2*(centering error)/(trim sensitivity)
Trim sensitivity is a parameter which can be supplied by your crystal vendor. If you do not know the value,
assume it is 30 ppm/pF. After any changes, repeat the measurement to verify that the remaining error is
acceptably low (less than 15 ppm).
The MicroClock Applications department can perform this procedure on your board. Call us at
4082959800, and we will arrange for you to send us a PC board (stuffed or unstuffed) and one of your
crystals. We will calculate the value of capacitors needed.
