Figure 10-6. CLAD Block
The clock rate adapter can also be disabled and all three clocks supplied externally using the CLKA, CLKB and
CLKC pins as clock inputs. When the CLAD is disabled, the three reference clocks DS3, E3 and STS-1 will need to
be applied to the CLKA, CLKB and CLKC pins, respectively. If any of the three frequencies is not required, it does
not need to be applied to the CLAD CLK pins.
The CLAD MODE inputs to the clock rate adapter are composed of CLAD[3:0] control bits (located in the
Register) which determines which pins are input and output and which clock rate is on which pin. When
CLAD[3:0]=00XX, the PLL circuits are disabled and the signals on the input clock pins are used as the internal LIU
reference clocks. When CLAD[3:0]=(01XX or 10XX or 11XX), none, one or two PLL circuits are enabled to
generate the required clocks as determined by the CLAD[3:0] bits and the framing mode (FM[5:0]) and the line
mode (LM[2:0]) control bits. If a clock rate is not required on the CLAD output clock pins or for a reference clock for
any of the LIU, then the PLL used to generate that clock is disabled and powered down.
For example, in a design that only has the ports running at DS3 rates, then CLAD[3:0] can be set = 0100 and the
DS3 clock signal on the CLKA pin will be used as the DS3 LIU reference clock and no PLL circuit will be disabled.
