PCS3PS550A
General Purpose Peak EMI
Reduction IC
Product Description
The PCS3PS550A is a versatile 2.3 V to 3.6 V, TimingSafe,
spectrum frequency modulator designed specifically for a wide range
of clock frequencies. The PCS3PS550A reduces electromagnetic
interference (EMI) at the clock source, allowing system wide
reduction of EMI of all clock dependent signals. The PCS3PS550A
allows significant system cost savings by reducing the number of
circuit board layers ferrite beads, shielding that are traditionally
required to pass EMI regulations.

Figure 1. Block Diagram
PCS3PS550A 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’.
PCS3PS550A accepts an input from an external reference
clock and locks to a 1x modulated clock output. SR0, SR1
and SR2 pins enable selecting one of the eight different
frequency deviations (Refer Frequency Deviation Selection
table). PCS3PS550A also features power down option for
power save. PCS3PS550A operates over a supply voltage
range of 2.3 V to 3.6 V. PCS3PS550A is available in an 8 Pin
WDFN, (2 mm x 2 mm) Package.

PCB Layout Recommendation
For optimum device performance, following guidelines are recommended.
Dedicated VDD and GND planes.
The device must be isolated from system power supply noise. A 0.1mF and a 2.2 mF decoupling capacitor should be
mounted on the component side of the board as close to the VDD pin as possible. No vias should be used between the
decoupling capacitor and VDD pin. The PCB trace to VDD pin and the ground via should be kept as short as possible.
All the VDD pins should have decoupling capacitors.
In an optimum layout all components are on the same side of the board, minimizing vias through other signal layers.
A typical layout is shown in the figure
