Functional Description
CY26049 is a FailSafe frequency synthesizer with a reference
clock input and three clock outputs. The device provides an
optimum solution for applications where continuous operation
is required in the event of a primary clock failure. The
continuous, glitch-free operation is achieved by using a DCXO
which serves as a primary clock source. The FailSafe control
circuit synchronizes the DCXO with the reference as long as
the reference is within the pull range of the crystal.
In the event of a reference clock failure the DCXO maintains
the last frequency and phase information of the reference
clock. The unique feature of the CY26049-36 is that the DCXO
is in fact the primary clocking source. When the reference
clock is restored, the DCXO automatically re-synchronizes to
the reference. The status of the reference clock input, as
detected by the CY26049-36, is reported by the SAFE pin.
In the buffer mode (FS3:FS0 = 1110 or 1111), the CY26049-36
can be used as a jitter attenuator. In this mode, extensive jitter
on the input clock will be “filtered”, resulting in a low-jitter
output clock.
