Bulk acoustic wave (BAW)-based PCIe Gen 1 to Gen 7-compliant referenceless clock generator

The LMK3H0102 is a 2-output PCIe Gen 1 to Gen 7 compliant reference-less clock generator with Spread Spectrum Clocking (SSC) support. The part is based on TI proprietary Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) technology and provides ±25ppm clock outputs without any crystal or external clock reference. The device can provide two SSC clocks, two non-SSC clocks, or one SSC clock and one non-SSC clock at the same time. The device meets the full PCIe compliance from Gen 1 to Gen 7, including Common Clock with or without SSC, Separate Reference No Spread (SRNS), and Separate Reference Independent Spread (SRIS).

The device can be easily configured through either pins or I2C interface. An external DC/DC can be used to power the device. Refer to Power Supply Recommendations for detailed guidelines on power supply filtering and sourcing from DC/DC.

For OTP default settings for each LMK3H0102Axxx configuration, refer to the LMK3H0102 Configuration Guide.
