The P2681A reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) at the clock source, which provides system wide reduction of EMI of all clock dependent signals. The P2681A allows significant system cost savings by reducing the number of circuit board layers and shielding that are traditionally required to pass EMI regulations. The P2681A uses the most efficient and optimized modulation profile approved by the FCC. The P2681A 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". Applications The P2681A is targeted towards MFP, xDSL, fax modem, set-top box, USB controller, DSC, and embedded systems.

This allows no occurrence of system timing error. The optimal setting should minimize system EMI to the fullest without affecting system performance. The spreading is described as a percentage deviation of the center frequency (Note: the center frequency is the frequency of the external reference input on CLKIN, Pin 1). Example: The P2681A is designed for PC peripheral applications. It is not only optimized for operation between 6MHz - 16MHz range, but its output frequency can be extended down to one half of the input clock frequency using the Divide-by-Two feature. This feature extends low frequency operation to as low as 3MHz. Setting Pin 3 high (DIV2=1; Divide-by-Two mode) sets the output frequency (ModOUT) to half the frequency of the input clock (CLKIN). This is a simple way to generate a spread spectrum modulated low frequency clock when only a higher frequency signal is available. If you want the output frequency to be the same as the input, you need to set DIV2=0. The P2681A's spread % selection is determined by the external LF value specified in Table 2. Table 1 provides a particular LF value which allows the % spreading to be selected between +/-0.75% or +/-1.30% by setting SR0 to either 0 and 1. At a specified LF value (See Table 2), SR0 pin allows the user to have the flexibility to digitally select between large or small % spreading by setting SR0=1 or SR0=0 respectively.
