The Silicon Creations fractional-N PLL is production-proven IP implemented in many different processes. The PLL has ultra-wide ranges of 1-megahertz (MHz) to 1.2-gigahertz (GHz) input and from 1.5MHz to 2.4GHz output as well as a 24-bit fractional modulator allowing output frequency steps below 0.01ppm. An integrated jitter compensation Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) means the output long-term jitter in fractional mode is better than most integer PLLs. It has the capability to generate digitally exact spread spectrum modulation to ensure the satisfying result in specific SoC clocking applications.
"In the consumer and multimedia market, Faraday has accumulated the solid domain know-how and service experience. Besides our self-developed IPs, Faraday further extend the partnership to some professional IP vendors for an even more comprehensive offering," says Jensen Yen, Associate Vice President of Marketing and Spokesperson at Faraday. "By leveraging Silicon Creations' expertise and its technical support, Faraday can assist customers to launch their solutions, with less design and integration effort, and in most aggressive schedule," he added.
"We are glad that Silicon Creations' PLL has been selected for Faraday's exacting requirements and commitment to providing the most sophisticated design service and technologies," says Andrew Cole, Vice President of Business Development at Silicon Creations. "We believe that our PLL will help Faraday to provide its high-performance SoCs within a short schedule."
