Jitter-Attenuated Clock
[Figure
The VC709 board includes a Silicon Labs Si5324 jitter attenuator U24 on the back side of the
board. FPGA user logic can implement a clock recovery circuit and then output this clock
to a differential I/O pair on I/O bank 13 (REC_CLOCK_C_P, FPGA U1 pin AW32 and
REC_CLOCK_C_N, FPGA U1 pin AW33) for jitter attenuation. The jitter-attenuated clock
(Si5324_OUT_C_P, Si5324_OUT_C_N) is then routed as a reference clock to GTH Quad 113
inputs MGTREFCLK0P (FPGA U1 pin AH8) and MGTREFCLK0N (FPGA U1 pin AH7).
The primary purpose of this clock is to support CPRI/OBSAI applications that perform
clock recovery from a user-supplied SFP/SFP+ module and use the jitter-attenuated
recovered clock to drive the reference clock inputs of a GTH transceiver. The
jitter-attenuated clock circuit is shown in
