OPERATION

is not stable, it will increase the start-up time as the con-

verter waits for a stable result. Therefore, capacitance on

the DIV pin should be minimized so it will settle quickly.

Less than 100pF will not affect performance.

Output Enable

The OE pin controls the state of the LTC6990’s output as

seen on the OUT pin. Pulling the OE pin high enables the

oscillator output. Pulling it low disables the output. When

the output is disabled, it is either held low or placed in

a high impedance state as dictated by the Hi-Z bit value

(determined by the DIVCODE as described earlier). Table 2

summarizes the output control states.

Figure 3 illustrates the timing for the OE function when

Hi-Z = 0. When OE is low, the output is disabled and OUT

is held low. Bringing OE high enables the output after a

delay, tENABLE, which synchronizes the enable to eliminate

sliver pulses and guarantee the correct width for the first

pulse. If NDIV = 1 or 2 this delay will be no longer than the

output period, tOUT. If NDIV > 2 the delay is limited to twice

the internal master oscillator period (or 2 • tMASTER).

Forcing OE low will bring OUT low after a propagation

delay, tPD. If the output is high when OE falls, the output

pulse will be truncated.

As shown in Figure 4, setting Hi-Z = 1 places the output in

a high-impedance state when OE = 0. This feature allows

for “wired-OR” connections of multiple devices. Driving

OE high enables the output. The output will usually be

forced low during this time, although it is possible for

OUT to transition directly from high-impedance to a high

output, depending on the timing of the OE transition rela-

tive to the internal oscillator. Once high, the first output

pulse will have the correct width (unless truncated by

bringing OE low again).
