Description
2OUT1N
O
CML or
LVPECL
One of four CML or LVPECL differential outputs, partnered with pin 3; programmable at
spot frequencies from 19.44 MHz up to 625.00 MHz. For outputs OUT1 and OUT2 only,
output frequency can be instantly configured using Rate Selection pins (pins 47 and 48
page 13. Output is on when VDD01 is supplied with 3.3 V, or off when VDD01 is tied to
zero volts. If VDD01 is connected to 0 V remove external biasing resistors.
3OUT1P
O
CML or
LVPECL
CML or LVPECL differential output partnered with pin 2. See pin 2 description for more
detail.
5OUT2N
O
CML or
LVPECL
One of four CML or LVPECL differential outputs, partnered with pin 6; programmable at
spot frequencies from 19.44 MHz up to 625.00 MHz. For outputs OUT1 and OUT2 only,
output frequency can be instantly configured using Rate Selection pins (pins 45 and 46
page 13. Output is on when VDD02 is supplied with 3.3 V, or off when VDD02 is tied to
zero volts. If VDD02 is connected to 0 V remove external biasing resistors.

O
CML or
LVPECL
CML or LVPECL differential output partnered with pin 5. See pin 5 description for more
detail.
8OUT3N
O
CML or
