Pin Description
PIN No.
Pin Name
I/O
Description
45
3Vmref
O
3V reference to memory clock driver. It is synchronous to the CPU clock.
44
3Vmref_b
O
3V reference to memory clock driver (180
° out of phase with 3Vmref).
42*
Spread#
I
Invokes Spread Spectrum functionality on the Differential CPU clocks, 66 MHz
clocks, 33 MHz PCI clocks, and the Mref/Mref_b clocks. Active Low.
41
CPU1
40
CPU1#
O
CPU clock pair. These two differential clocks are 180
o out of phase with each
other. See the table on page 1 of this data sheet for the frequency selections.
38
CPU2
37
CPU2#
O
CPU clock pair. These two differential clocks are 180
o out of phase with each
other. See the table on page 1 of this data sheet for the frequency selections.
35
I_Ref
This pin is the reference current input for the CPU pairs. This pin takes a fixed
precision resistor (Rr) tied to ground (see pg. 12) in order to establish the
appropriate current.
30, 29,
27
3V66 (0;2)
O
66.67 MHz 3.3 Volt outputs.
32*
PwrDwn#
I
When asserted low, this pin invokes power-down mode by shutting off all the
clocks, disabling all internal circuitry, and shutting down the crystal oscillator.
The 3Vmref, 3Vmref_B, 3V66, REF and CPU clocks are driven low during this
condition. It has a 250 K
internal pull-up.
23*
48 M0/SelA
24*
48 M1/SelB
SelA and SelB inputs are sensed on power-up and then internally latched prior to
the pin being used for output of 3V 48 MHz clocks.
21*
SEL100/133
I
CPU frequency select pin. Low = 100 MHz, High = 133 MHz.
4
XOUT
O
14.318 MHz crystal output.
3
XIN
I
14.318 MHz crystal input.
2
Ref_Out
O
14.318 MHz reference outputs.
48
Ref1/MultSel (0)
I
1
Ref2/MultSel (1)
MultSel0 and MultSel1 inputs are sensed on power-up and then internally
latched prior to the pin being used for output of 3V 14.318 MHz clocks. They sel
Iref values, see pg. 11.

PCI (1:10)
O
3.3V 33 MHz outputs. These clocks are used for onboard and plugin slot PCI
devices.
