Functions Overview The SG-8506CA has a XO, PLL and output buffer unit. The XO unit is composed of a fundamental mode crystal that generates stable reference clock for PLL. The output frequency is determined by the feedback divider and the output divider. The feedback divider can offer not only integer setting that achieves lower jitter, but also fractional setting that provides frequency in ppb resolution.
SG-8506CA Reconfiguring Frequency Setting The SG-8506CA has a “user register” and a “PLL register”. The user register stores ODIV, NINT and NFRAC. It can be reprogrammed at any time when I C bus is available. The PLL register is connected directly to the PLL.
C interface Connection of I C Bus The SG-8506CA can be used as a slave device of I C bus. The I C bus is composed of serial data line (SDA) and serial clock (SCL). The lines need to be both pulled up by external resistors. Electric level of the pull up resistor need to be above the Vcc so these are recommended to be pulled up to the Vcc.
SG-8506CA C Bus Protocols Supported by the SG-8506CA I2C bus protocols that can be supported by the SG-8506CA are shown in the below Table 6.3. Table 6.3. I C bus protocols supported by the SG-8506CA Feature SG-8506CA ✓ START condition ✓...
Procedure of Read/Write to register is shown in the below Figure 6.5. The SG-8506CA can Read/Write single or multi byte data. The SG-8506CA slave address is able to be specified by the customer. It will be programmed to non-volatile memory at our factory.
