AD9517-1ABCPZ-RL7

Overview

The AD9517-1ABCPZ-RL7 is a 12-output clock generator featuring an integrated voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) with a tuning range of 2.30 GHz to 2.65 GHz. It supports up to 2.4 GHz external VCO/VCXO inputs and accepts LVPECL, LVDS, or CMOS reference signals up to 250 MHz. The device provides four LVPECL outputs operating to 1.6 GHz, two pairs of LVDS outputs to 800 MHz, and reconfigurable CMOS outputs to 250 MHz. It operates on a single 3.3 V supply within the -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range.

Feature Summary

• Integrated VCO tunes from 2.30 GHz to 2.65 GHz; optional external VCO/VCXO support up to 2.4 GHz
• Four LVPECL outputs (1.6 GHz max), two LVDS output pairs (800 MHz max), and eight CMOS outputs (250 MHz max)
• Additive jitter of 225 fs rms for LVPECL and 275 fs rms for LVDS outputs
• Programmable delays, automatic synchronization, and digital/analog lock detect capabilities

Applications

• Low jitter clock distribution systems
• 10/40/100 Gb/sec networking line cards including SONET and OTU2/3/4
• Clocking high-speed ADCs, DACs, DDSs, DDCs, DUCs, and MxFEs
• High-performance wireless transceivers and ATE instrumentation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current documentation to confirm package type and reel specifications. Confirm that the component meets RoHS compliance requirements for the intended deployment environment. Ensure the procurement channel sources genuine Analog Devices products to maintain signal integrity and reliability standards.

Selection Notes

Select this component when subpicosecond jitter performance and low phase noise are critical for data converter applications. Choose the internal VCO configuration for simplified designs or utilize the external VCO input if specific frequency stability is required. Ensure the system design accommodates the 48-lead LFCSP package dimensions and thermal dissipation requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AD9517 family of multi-output clock generators. It shares functional similarities with the AD9516 and AD9518 but offers a distinct combination of LVPECL and LVDS outputs. For applications requiring additional outputs, crystal references, or EEPROM configuration, the AD9520 and AD9522 are available alternatives within the same product family.
