Primary Line Rate XCLK Reference Clock and Internal Reference Clock Synthesizer
In some applications, it is more desirable to provide a reference clock at the primary data rate. In such cases, the 
LIU can utilize an internal 16x clock synthesizer allowing the XCLK pin to accept a primary data rate clock. The 
specifications for XCLK using a primary rate reference clock are defined in Table 29.
Table 29. XCLK (1x, CLKS = 1) Timing Specifications
* When JABW0 = 1 and the jitter attenuator is used in the receive data path, the tolerance on XCLK should be tightened to ±20 ppm in order to 
meet the jitter accommodation requirements of TBR12/13 as given in G.823 for line data rates of ±50 ppm.
 If XCLK is used as the source for AIS (see Alarm Indication Signal Generator (XAIS) on page 30), it must meet the nominal transmission 
specifications of 1.544 MHz ± 32 ppm for DS1 (T1) or 2.048 MHz ± 50 ppm for CEPT (E1).
The data rate reference clock and the internal clock synthesizer are selected when CLKS = 1. In this mode, a valid 
and stable data rate reference clock must be applied to the XCLK pin before and during the time a hardware reset 
is activated (RESET = 0). The reset must be held active for a minimum of two data rate clock periods to ensure 
proper resetting of the clock synthesizer circuit. Upon the deactivation of the reset pin (RESET = 1), the LIU will 
extend the reset condition internally for approximately 1/2(2
12
 – 1) line clock periods, or 1.3 ms for DS1 and 
1 ms for CEPT after the hardware reset pin has become inactive, allowing the clock synthesizer additional time to 
settle. No activity such as microprocessor read/write should be performed during this period. The device will be 
operational 2.7 ms after the deactivation of the hardware reset pin. Issuing an LIU software restart (LIU_REG2 
bit 5 (RESTART) = 1) does not impact the clock synthesizer circuit.
Power Supply Bypassing
External bypassing is required for all channels. A 1.0 μF capacitor must be connected between V
DDX
 and GND
X
. In 
addition, a 0.1 μF capacitor must be connected between V
DDD
 and GND
D
, and a 0.1 μF capacitor must be con-
nected between V
DDA
 and GND
A
. Ground plane connections are required for GND
X
, GND
D
, and GND
A
. Power 
plane connections are also required for V
DDX
 and V
DDD
. The need to reduce high-frequency coupling into the ana-
log supply (V
DDA
) may require an inductive bead to be inserted between the power plane and the V
DDA
 pin of every 
channel. 
Capacitors used for power supply bypassing should be placed as close as possible to the device pins for maximum 
effectiveness.
