General Description
The ICS9158 is a low cost frequency generator designed
specifically for desktop and notebook PC applications. Eight
high dr ive, skew-c ont rol led copies of th e CPU clo ck a re a vail-
able, eliminating the need for an external buffer .
Each high drive (50mA) output is capable of driving a 30pF
load and has a typical duty cycle of 50/50. The CPU clock
outputs are ske w-con troll ed to within ±250ps. The CPU clocks
provide all necessary frequencies for 286, 386, 486 and Pen-
tium systems, including support for the latest speeds of proc-
essors.
The CPU cloc k offers the uniqu e feature of smoot h, glitch-free
transitions from one frequency to the next, making this the
ideal device to use whenever slowing the CPU speeds. The
ICS9158 makes a gradual transition between frequencies so
that it meets the Intel cycle-to-cycle timing specification for
486 systems.
ICS has been shipping Motherboard Frequency Generators
since April 1990, and is the leader in the area of multiple output
clocks on a single chip. The ICS9158 is a third generation
device, and uses ICS’s patented analog CMOS Phase-Locked
Loop technology for lo w phase jitte r. I CS off ers a broad family
of frequency generators for motherboards, graphics and other
applications, including cost effective versions with only one or
two output clocks. Consu lt ICS for all of your clock gener ation
needs.

Frequency Transitions
A key feature of the ICS9158 is its ability to provide smooth,
glitch-free frequency transitions on the CPU and 2XCPU
clocks when the frequency sele ct pins are changed . The fre-
quency transi tion rate does not violate the Intel 486 or Pentium
specification of less than 0.1% frequency change per clock
period.
Using an Input Clock as a Reference
The ICS9158 is designed to accept a 14.318 MHz crystal as the
input r efer ence. Wit h some externa l changes, it is possible to
use a crystal oscillator or other clock sources. Please see
application note AAN04 for details on driving the ICS9158
with a cl ock.
Stop Clock Feature (Optional Mask Version)
The ICS9158 incorpo rates a uni que stop cloc k fe ature c ompat-
ible with stat ic logic processors. W hen the stop clock pin goes
low, the CPUCLK will go low after the next occurring f alling
edge. When ST OPCLK again goes high, CPUCLK resumes on
the next rising edge of the in terna l clock. This feature enables
fast, glitch-free starts and stops of the CPUCLK and is useful
in Energy Sta rt motherboard applications. Please contact ICS
marketing for more details.
