PWRDWN# Clarification
[1]
The PWRDWN# pin is used to shut off all clocks cleanly and
instruct the device to evoke power savings mode. Additionally,
PWRDWN# should be asserted prior to shutting off the input
clock or power to ensure all clocks shut down in a glitch-free
manner. PWRDWN# is an asynchronous active low input. This
signal is synchronized internal to the device prior to powering
down the clock buffer. PWRDWN# is an asynchronous input
for powering up the system. When PWRDWN# is asserted
low, all clocks will be held high or three-stated (depending on
the state of the control register drive mode and OE bits) prior
to turning off the VCO. All clocks will start and stop without any
abnormal behavior and must meet all AC and DC parameters.
This means no glitches, frequency shifting or amplitude abnor-
malities among others.
PWRDWN#—Assertion
When PWRDWN# is sampled low by two consecutive rising
edges of DIFC, all DIFT outputs will be held high or
three-stated (depending on the state of the control register
drive mode and OE bits) on the next DIFC high to low
transition. When the SMBus power-down drive mode bit is
programmed to ‘0’, all clock outputs will be held with the DIFT
pin driven high at 2 x Iref and DIFC three-state. However, if the
control register PWRDWN# drive mode bit is programmed to
‘1’, then both DIFT and the DIFC are three-stated.
PWRDWN#—Deassertion
The power-up latency is less than 1 ms. This is the time from
the deassertion of the PWRDWN# pin or the ramping of the
power supply or the time from valid SRC_IN input clocks until
the time that stable clocks are output from the buffer chip (PLL
locked). IF the control register PWRDWN# three-state bit is
programmed to ‘1’, all differential outputs must be driven high
in less than 300
μ
S of PWRDWN# deassertion to a voltage
greater than 200 mV.
Notes:
1. Disabling of the SRCT_IN input clock prior to assertion of PWRDWN# is an undefined mode and not recommended. Operation in this mode may result in glitches
excessive frequency shifting.
2. The total power up latency from power on to all outputs active is less than 1ms (assuming a valid clock is present on SRC_IN input)
3. LOCk output is a latched signal that is reset with the assertion of PWRDWN# or when VDD<1.8V,
4. Special care must be taken to ensure that no abnormal clock behavior occurs after the assertion PLL LOCK (i.e overshoot undershoot is allowed).
5. If power is valid and PWRDWN# is deasserted but no input clocks are present on the SRC_IN input, DIF clocks will remain disabled. Only after valid input clocks
are detected, valid power, PWRDWN# deasserted with the PLL locked and stable are the DIF outputs enabled.
6. In the case where OE is asserted low, the output will always be three-stated regardless of SRC_STOP# drive mode register bit state.

Description
3.3V Buffer power off
After 3.3V supply is detected to rise above 1.8V - 2.0V, the buffer enters state 1 and initiates a 0.2-ms–0.3-ms delay
Buffer
waits for a valid clock on the SRC_IN input
and PWRDWN# deassertion
Once the PLL is locked to the SRC_IN input clock, the buffer enters state 3 and enables outputs for normal operation
