Device Operation
The ICS580-01 consists of a glitch free mux between INA and INB controlled by SELB. The device is designed to
switch between two clocks, whether running or not. In the first example, clocks are running on both INA and INB.
When SELB changes, the output clock goes low after three cycles of the output clock (nominally). The output then
stays low for three cycles of the new input clock (nominally) and then starts with the new input clock. This is shown
in Figure 1.
In the second example, one of the inputs was selected and running but has since stopped (either high or low). This
is indicated by either NO_INA or NO_INB going high depending on whether INA or INB has stopped. These signals
go high following a selectable time-out period after the clock has stopped. The timeout period is determined by the
DIV input in. The SELB pin is now changed to select the new input clock which is running. The output clock
immediately goes low and stays low for three cycles of the new input clock and then starts with the new input clock.

Application Example
In the third example, the ICS580-01 is configured to automatically switch clocks when an input stops. The clock that
could stop is connected to INA while the backup clock (always running) is connected to INB. The output NO_INA is
connected to SELB. This means that when the clock on INA stops, NO_INA goes high selecting the clock on INB
which is muxed to the output after three cycles. When the clock on INA restarts, NO_INA immediately goes low,
selecting the clock on INA. The output then switches in the manner described in the first example.
The circuit diagram in Figure 3 shows a typical connection for this example. Note that CLK2 and NO_INB are
unused and are disabled by grounding OE2 and OE4. A 33 series termination resistor is used on the clock output
and two decoupling capacitors of 0.01µF are used. All other inputs are left floating and are therefore pulled high by
the on-chip pull-ups.
Output Enable
Each output has a dedicated output enable pin. If an output is unused, it should be tri-stated by tying the
appropriate output enable pin to ground.
External Components
The ICS580-01 requires two 0.01µF decoupling capacitors, one between VDDI and GND and one between VDDC
and GND. Series termination resistors of 33 can be used on CLK1 and CLK2.

Split Power Supplies
The VDDI pin provides the power for the INA and INB input buffers only. All the other inputs and the rest of the chip
are connected to VDDC. This allows for supply voltage translation. For example, INA and INB could be 5V clocks
(VDDI = 5V) and the rest of the chip could use a 3.3V supply on VDDC giving 3.3V output clocks. For correct
operation VDDI must always be greater than or equal to VDDC.
Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses above the ratings listed below can cause permanent damage to the ICS580-01. These ratings, which are
standard values for IDT commercially rated parts, are stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device at these
or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied.
Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods can affect product reliability. Electrical
parameters are guaranteed only over the recommended operating temperature range.
