3.3 Device Additive Jitter
The ZL40204 clock fan out buffer is not intended to filter clock jitter. The jitter performance of this type of device is
characterized by its additive jitter. Additive jitter is the jitter the device would add to a hypothetical jitter-free clock as
it passes through the device. The additive jitter of the ZL40204 is random and as such it is not correlated to the jitter
of the input clock signal.
The square of the resultant random RMS jitter at the output
of the ZL40204 is equal to the sum of the squares of the
various random RMS jitter sources including: input clock jitter; additive jitter of the buffer; and additive jitter due to
power supply noise. There may be additional deterministic jitter sources that are not shown in Figure 19.

3.4 Power Supply
This device operates employing either a 2.5V supply or 3.3V supply.
3.4.1 Sensitivity to power supply noise
Power supply noise from sources such as switching power supplies and high-power digital components such as
FPGAs can induce additive jitter on clock buffer outputs. The ZL40204 is equipped with a low drop out (LDO) on-
chip linear power regulator and on-chip bulk capacitors to minimize additive jitter due to power supply noise. The
on-chip regulation, recommended power supply filtering, and good PCB layout all work together to minimize the
additive jitter from power supply noise.
3.4.2 Power supply filtering
Jitter levels may increase when noise is present on the power pins. For optimal jitter performance, the device
should be isolated from the power planes connected to its power supply pins as shown in Figure 20.

3.4.3 PCB layout considerations
The power nets in Figure 20 can be implemented either as a plane island or routed power topology without
changing the overall jitter p
erformance of the device.
