Overview
Description
This RC38312A evaluation kit is used to evaluate the RC38312 FemtoClock™ 3 ultra-low phase noise radio synchronizer, multi-frequency clock synthesizer. The RC38312/RC38112 is an ultra-low phase noise radio synchronizer, multi-frequency clock synthesizer, and digitally controlled oscillator (DCO). This flexible, low-power device outputs clocks with ultra-low in-band phase noise and spurious signals for 4G and 5G RF transceivers and with jitter below 18fs RMS for 112Gbps and 224Gbps SerDes.
Features
- Four differential clock inputs
- Twelve differential clock outputs
- Onboard EEPROM stores startup configuration data
- XIN terminal can use a laboratory signal generator or OCXO/TCXO/XO components and board
- Laboratory power supply connectors
- Serial port for configuration and register readout
Applications
- 5G radio units (RU)
- 5G distribution units (DU), switches, and routers
- Reference clock for 112Gbps and 224Gbps SerDes
- High-performance DCO for precision time protocol (PTP) based clocks
- Datacenter switch, accelerator card, AI interconnect
