Functional Description
The CY23FS08 is a FailSafe™ Zero Delay Buffer with two
reference clock inputs and eight phase-aligned outputs. The
device provides an optimum solution for applications where
continuous operation is required in the event of a primary clock
failure.
Continuous, glitch-free operation is achieved by using a
DCXO, which serves as a redundant clock source in the event
of a reference clock failure by maintaining the last frequency
and phase information of the reference clock.
The unique feature of the CY23FS08 is that the DCXO is in
fact the primary clocking source, which is synchronized
(phase-aligned) to the external reference clock. When this
external clock is restored, the DCXO automatically resynchro-
nizes to the external clock.
The frequency of the crystal, which will be connected to the
DCXO must be chosen to be an integer factor of the frequency
of the reference clock. This factor is set by four select lines:
S[4:1]. please see Table 1. The CY23FS08 has three split
power supplies; one for core, another for Bank A outputs and
the third for Bank B outputs. Each output power supply, except
VDDC can be connected to either 2.5V or 3.3V. VDDC is the
power supply pin for internal circuits and must be connected
to 3.3V.
