XCLK1 Ultra Low Jitter Multi-Channel Clock Generator


  • Up to five phase matched RF outputs (three differential)
  • Selectable internal or external 10 MHz reference (with frequency multipliers for RF output)
  • External RF clock source
  • XMC/PMC format (power only)
  • Air-cooled and rugged build options

The XCLK1 is a high frequency clock generator PMC/XMC module that is able to provide up to five synchronized sample clocks for high speed I/O products such as analog to digital converters.

The clock sources can be up to 2 GHz. The XCLK1 offers a number of clock source options including an internal temperature compensated crystal oscillator or offboard source. The latter can be a direct RF or 10 MHz reference with onboard frequency multiplication. Frequency multiplication is achieved through low phase noise VCO/PLL circuitry (each frequency output is a build variant). Single-ended and differential clock outputs are supported.

The XCLK1 is an ideal clock source for multiple VMETRO AD1500 or AD3000 analog input PMC/XMC modules and allows multiple ADC modules to be synchronized.Typical applications for the XCLK1 include SigInt, Spectral Analysis and Radar.
