Texas Instruments' CDCM6208V2G is a highly versatile, low-jitter, low-power-frequency synthesizer that can generate eight low-jitter clock outputs, are selectable between LVPECL-like high-swing CML, normal-swing CML, LVDS-like low-power CML, HCSL, or LVCMOS, from one of two inputs. These inputs can feature a low-frequency crystal, or CML, LVPECL, LVDS, or LVCMOS signals, for a variety of wireless infrastructure baseband, wireline data communication, computing, low-power medical imaging, and portable test and measurement applications. The CDCM6208V2G also features an innovative fractional divider architecture for four of its outputs that can generate any frequency with better than 1 ppm frequency accuracy. The CDCM6208V2G can be easily configured through I²C or SPI programming interface and in the absence of serial interface. Pin mode is also available, and can set the device in one of thirty-two distinct, pre-programmed configurations using control pins.

In synthesizer mode, the overall output jitter performance is less than 0.5 ps RMS (10 k to 20 MHz), or 20 ps p-p (unbound) on output using integer dividers and is between 50 to 220 ps p-p (10 k to 40 MHz) on outputs using fractional dividers depending on the prescaler output frequency.

In jitter cleaner mode, the overall output jitter is less than 2.1 ps RMS (10 k to 20 MHz), or 40 ps p-p on output using integer dividers, and is less than 70 ps to 240 ps p-p on outputs using fractional dividers. The CDCM6208V2G is packaged in a small, 48-pin, 7 mm x 7 mm QFN package.
