ICS341MP

The ICS341MP from Renesas is a low-cost, single-output, field programmable clock synthesizer. It utilizes Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) techniques to generate output clock frequencies ranging from 250 kHz to 200 MHz. This device can also employ spread spectrum techniques to reduce system electromagnetic interference (EMI).

The synthesizer features a 3.3V operating voltage and is housed in an 8-pin SOIC package, suitable for surface mount applications. It supports input crystal frequencies from 5 to 27 MHz and input clock frequencies from 2 to 50 MHz. The device includes a power-down feature that tri-states the clock outputs when the PDTS pin is taken low.

With its field programmability via One-Time Programmable (OTP) ROM, the ICS341MP offers flexibility in configuration. It supports selectable modulation frequencies of 32 kHz or 120 kHz and can provide center or down spread up to 4% total. The PLL multiplier range is M = 1 to 2048 and N = 1 to 1024.

This clock synthesizer is designed for applications requiring accurate frequency generation and EMI reduction. Its compact 8-SOIC package and surface mount capability make it suitable for various electronic designs.
