**SL9090/A Universal PC/AT Clock Chip                           <oct88
***Info:
The  SL9090  is a  Universal  Clock  Chip  capable of  generating  all
essential clock signals  that are used in a  typical P.C. design. This
device  can support  8086,  8088, 80286,  803865X,  80386DX and  80486
microprocessor  based designs.  The  outputs of  this  clock chip  are
programmable through  the keyboard and also by  jumper settings. Clock
options of 60 MHz, 50 MHz, 48  MHz, 40 MHz, 32 MHz and their multiples
are available, in order to give flexibility to the user.

Frequency  selection is  done by  the three  decode inputs  FS0-FS2 as
shown in Table  1. [see datasheet] FSEL is used  to control the system
I/O  bus clock.  During a  CPU cycle  the FSEL  remains high,  and the
frequency  selection  on the  outputs  is  determined  by the  FS0-FS2
pins. When  an I / O  cycle is detected,  the FSEL goes low  and fixed
frequencies of  16 MHz, 8 MHz and  4 MHz are available  on output pins
F12 (pin 8), F122 (pin 5) and F124 (pin 3). Designer have an option to
run  the system I/O  clock at  half the  CPU clock  as well.   This is
achieved  by connecting  the FSEL  pin to  the keyboard  controller in
order to hold this pin high  during an I/O cycle. This allows the FSEL
signal to be controlled through the keyboard by pressing CTL ALT +" or
"CTL ALT-".

The reference frequency  of 14.318 MHz is also  supplied to the output
through the FREF pin for the I/O slots. This frequency is divided by 2
internally and 7.159  MHz is supplied to the  output through the FREF2
pin for the keyboard controller. The  FREF12 pin has an output of 1.19
MHz and is used by the  timerl (8254) in the peripheral controller for
refresh. All outputs are capable of 8mA drive.

The SL9090 consists of  two independent Voltage controlled Oscillators
(VCOs)  integrated with  dividers, phase  sensitive  detectors, charge
pumps  and  buffer  amplifiers  to  provide the  desired  glitch  free
frequencies. An externally  generated signal of 14.318 MHz  is used as
the reference  frequency for the  SL9090. This reference  frequency is
fed into the phase sensitive detectors to differentiate the difference
in  phase  between the  reference  frequency  being  generated by  the
VCOs.  This  becomes  an input  to  the  charge  pumps which  in  turn
generates  a signal  to  sink or  source  the charge.  This signal  is
buffered by  the buffer  amplifiers between the  charge pumps  and the
VCOs. The output from the VCOs are divided to generate the appropriate
outputs.

The  SL9090 is  designed,  using advanced  Bipolar  technology and  is
available in  a 44 pin PLCC.  It requires only one  crystal (14.3 MHz)
and a few RC components to  generate all the essential clocks that are
required for a PC. design. As  there is only one crystal on the system
board,  the  Electro   Magnetic  Radiation  is  reduced  significantly
facilitating FCC  approval. This  makes the SL9090  an ideal  low cost
solution with capabilities for universal applications.
