User Programmable Laser Engine Pixel Clock Generator
Description
Features
The ICS1574B is a very high performance monolithic phaselocked loop (PLL) frequency synthesizer designed for laser
engine applications. Utilizing ICS’s advanced CMOS mixedmode technology, the ICS1574B provides a low cost solution
for high-end pixel clock generation for a variety of laser engine product applications.
•
Supports high resolution laser graphics. PLL/VCO
frequency re-programmable through serial interface
port to 400 MHz; allows less than ±1.5ns pixel clock
resolution.
•
Laser pixel clock output is synchronized with
conditioned beam detect input
The pixel clock output (PCLK) frequency is derived from the
main clock by a programmable resettable divider.
•
Ideal for laser printer, copier and FAX pixel clock
applications
Operating frequencies are fully programmable with direct
control provided for reference divider, feedback divider and
post-scaler.
