Semtech Corporation ACS8525A

The ACS8525A is a highly integrated, single-chip solution for “Hit-less” protection switching of SEC (SDH/SONET Equipment Clock) + Sync clock “Groups”, from Master and Slave SETS clock cards and a third (Stand-by) source, for Line Cards in a SONET or SDH Network Element. The ACS8525A has fast activity monitors on the SEC clock inputs and will implement automatic system protection switching against the Master clock failure. The selection of the Master/Slave input can be forced by a Force Fast Switch pin.

FEATURES

DATASHEET If both the Master and Slave input clocks fail, the Stand-by “Group” is selected or, if no Stand-by is available, the device enters Digital Holdover mode. The ACS8525A can perform frequency translation, converting, for example, an 8 kHz SEC input clock from a backplane into a 155.52 MHz clock for local line cards. Master and Slave SEC inputs to the device support TTL/CMOS and PECL/LVDS. The Stand-by SEC and three Sync inputs are TTL/CMOS only. The ACS8525A generates two SEC clock outputs, via one PECL/LVDS and one TTL/CMOS port, with spot frequencies from 2 kHz up to 311.04 MHz (up to 155.52 MHz on the TTL/CMOS port). It also provides an 8 kHz Frame Sync and a 2 kHz Multi-Frame Sync signal output with programmable pulse width and polarity. The ACS8525 includes a Serial Port, which can be SPI compatible, providing access to the configuration and status registers for device setup. IEEE 1149.1 JTAG Boundary Scan is supported.
