Low-Jitter, Spread-Spectrum Clock Modulators Reduce EMI in Large-Format LCD Panels
The DS1181L is a spread-spectrum clock modulator IC that reduces EMI in high clock-frequency-based, digital electronic equipment. Using an integrated phase-locked loop (PLL), the DS1181L accepts an input clock signal in the range of 20MHz to 134MHz and delivers a spread-spectrum modulated output clock signal. The PLL modulates, or dithers, the output clock about the center input frequency at a pin-selectable magnitude, allowing direct EMI control and optimization. In addition, through an enable pin the dithering can be enabled or disabled for easy comparison of system performance during EMI testing. This same input pin also allows the DS1181L output to be three-stated. By dithering the system clock, all the address, data, and timing signals generated from this signal are also dithered so that the measured EMI at the fundamental and harmonic frequencies is greatly reduced. This is accomplished without changing clock rise/fall times or adding the space, weight, design time, and cost associated with mechanical shielding. The DS1181L is provided in an 8-pin TSSOP package and operates over a full automotive temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.
