Pericom Launches Trio of PLL Based Clock Multipliers


San Jose, CA, 2005-06-30 - Pericom Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ: PSEM), a worldwide preferred supplier of high-speed integrated circuits and frequency control devices, has expanded its SiliconClock IC portfolio with three new PLL clock multipliers targeting consumer electronics such as Set-top Box/DVR/PVR and HDTV, as well as Telecommunication Line Cards including T1/E1/OCxx.

Pericom's PI6C4500, PI6C4511, and PI6C4512 are high performance frequency multipliers that integrate Analog Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) techniques. The devices use a standard fundamental mode, inexpensive crystal to produce output clocks from 160MHz up to 200MHz. The complex logic dividers generate four (4500) or nine (4511, 4512) different popular multiplication factors, allowing the devices to produce outputs of many common frequencies. Pericom's PI6C45xx are intended for applications that need clock generation and frequency translation with low output jitter (variation in the output period).

"Pericom PI6C45xx products are the most cost effective way to generate a high quality, high frequency clock output from a lower frequency crystal input or clock input," said Kay Annamalai, Senior Marketing Director. "The input source can be from a crystal or a TTL/LVTTL/LVCMOS level signal. Pericom is excited to be able to offer our customers an industry unique Total Timing Solution by leveraging our experience in silicon clock IC design engineering along with our wholly-owned SaRonix Frequency Control division."

Key Features:

  • Low Period Jitter: less than 80ps
  • Max Frequency: 200MHz (PI6C4511/12); 160MHz (PI6C4500)
  • 3.3V or 5V Power Supply
  • 45/55% Output Duty Cycle
  • Selectable Multipliers: Nine (PI6C4511/12); Four (PI6C4500)
  • Multi Sources Input: 5V: crystal, TTL; 3.3V: crystal, LVTTL, LVCMOS

Availability and Pricing:
PI6C45xx products are in production now with samples and datasheets available on the company website. The devices are housed in 8-pin, Pb-free and Green SOIC and TSSOP packaging. Pricing starts at $0.65 in 10,000 unit quantities.
