The clock layout topology shown below is a typical termi-

nation for LVPECL outputs. The two different layouts men-

tioned are recommended only as guidelines.

FOUT and nFOUT are low impedance follower outputs that

generate ECL/LVPECL compatible outputs. Therefore, ter-

minating resistors (DC current path to ground) or current

sources must be used for functionality. These outputs are

designed to drive 50

Ω transmission lines. Matched imped-

ance techniques should be used to maximize operating

frequency and minimize signal distortion. Figures 4A and

4B show two different layouts which are recommended

only as guidelines. Other suitable clock layouts may exist

and it would be recommended that the board designers

simulate to guarantee compatibility across all printed cir-

cuit and clock component process variations.
