Lattice, Epson Toyocom offer differential reference clock solution

By utilizing Lattice's ispClock5400D device and the appropriate SG-710ECK CMOS oscillator from Epson Toyocom, a designer now has a low cost reference clock for Serdes applications such as Xaui or SDI video, according to the companies. The solution is a compelling alternative to traditional, more expensive high-frequency differential clock sources, the companies said.

An application note with more detailed information is available from Lattice's web site.

The 6-output ispClock5406D device is available now at $2.95 each in 10,000-piece volumes, Lattice said. The Epson Toyocom SG-710 is available now at $0.95 in 10,000-piece volumes, according to Lattice.
