Product Description

The P2005A/S is a versatile spread spectrum frequency

modulator

designed

specifically

for

input

clock

frequencies from 8MHz to 32MHz. Refer Output

Frequency Selection Table. The P2005A/S can generate

an EMI reduced clock from crystal, ceramic resonator, or

system clock. The P2005A/S offers various percentage

BlockDiagram

deviations ranging form ±0.6% to ±3.0%. Refer

Frequency Deviation Selections Table. The P2005A/S

reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) at the clock

source, allowing system wide reduction of EMI of down

stream clock and data dependent signals. The P2005A/S

allows significant system cost savings by reducing the

number of circuit board layers ferrite beads, shielding

and other passive components that are traditionally

required to pass EMI regulations.

The P2005A/S uses the most efficient and optimized

modulation profile approved by the FCC and is

implemented in a proprietary all digital method.

The P2005A/S modulates the output of a single PLL in

order to “spread” the bandwidth of a synthesized clock,

and more importantly, decreases the peak amplitudes of

its harmonics. This results in significantly lower system

EMI compared to the typical narrow band signal produced

by oscillators and most frequency generators. Lowering

EMI by increasing a signal’s bandwidth is called ‘spread

spectrum clock generation’.

Applications

The P2005A/S is targeted towards EMI management for

high-speed digital applications such as PC peripheral

devices, consumer electronics and embedded controller

systems.
