The MAX3624 is a low-jitter precision clock generator
optimized for networking applications. The device integrates
a crystal oscillator and a phase-locked loop
(PLL) clock multiplier to generate high-frequency clock
outputs for Ethernet, Fibre Channel, SONET/SDH, and
other networking applications.
Maxim’s proprietary PLL design features ultra-low jitter
(0.36psRMS) and excellent power-supply noise rejection,
minimizing design risk for network equipment.
The MAX3624 has three LVPECL outputs and one
LVCMOS output. Selectable output dividers and a
selectable feedback divider allow a range of output
frequencies.
