termination network should match the PCB trace impedance
and provide the desired switching point. The reduced signal
swing may still meet receiver input requirements in some
applications. This can be useful when driving long trace lengths
on less critical nets.

LVPECL CLOCK DISTRIBUTION
The LVPECL outputs, which are open emitter, require a dc
termination to bias the output transistors. The simplified
equivalent circuit in
Figure 19 shows the LVPECL output stage.
In most applications, a standard LVPECL far-end termination is
recommended, as shown in
Figure 22. The resistor network is
designed to match the transmission line impedance (50 Ω) and
establish a dc bias of (VCC – 2 V). An alternative dc-coupled
LVPECL termination network with a reduced number of
components is also possible as shown in

LVDS CLOCK DISTRIBUTION
The AD9572 is also available with low voltage differential
signaling (LVDS) outputs. LVDS uses a current mode output
stage with a factory programmed current level. The normal
value (default) for this current is 3.5 mA, which yields a 350 mV
output swing across a 100 Ω resistor. The LVDS outputs meet or
exceed all ANSI/TIA/EIA-644 specifications.

REFERENCE INPUT
By default, the crystal oscillator is enabled and used as the
reference source, which requires the connection of an external
25 MHz crystal cut to resonate in fundamental mode. The total
load capacitance presented to the oscillator should sum to 14 pF.
In the example shown in
Figure 26, parasitic trace capacitance
of 1.5 pF, and an AD9572 input pin capacitance of 1.5 pF are
assumed, with the series combination of the two 22 pF
capacitances providing a further 11 pF. The REFSEL pin is
pulled high internally by about 30 kΩ to support default
operation.

When REFSEL is tied low, the crystal oscillator is powered down,
and the REFCLK pin must provide a good quality 25 MHz
reference clock instead. This single-ended input can be driven
by either a dc-coupled LVCMOS level signal or an ac-coupled
