Clock Pins (XIN and XOUT)

Both the Router 5000 chip and FT Router 5000 chip require a 10 MHz external

crystal or oscillator to provide its input clock signal. The chip then multiplies the

input frequency by an amount specified in the device’s hardware template

(specified during device development using the NodeBuilder FX Development

Tool; see NodeBuilder Hardware Template) to derive its internal system clock

frequency. For multipliers greater than one, the chip uses a phase-locked loop

(PLL) to drive and manage the internal on-chip system clock frequency.
A Series 5000 router chip requires a 10.0 MHz external clock signal for operation.

An example part that meets the requirements for a Series 5000 router chip is the

Abracon Corporation ABMM2-100000MHz-D1 Ceramic Surface Mount Low

Profile Quartz Crystal.
The crystal must have a load capacitance rating of 18 pF. The internal

capacitance for the XIN and XOUT pins is approximately 4.5 pF. To maintain

the crystal’s load capacitance, add a pair of 33 pF external capacitors, as shown

in Figure 13. Note that Figure 13 applies to a single Series 5000 half-router.

Also, you must consider trace capacitance when calculating the values of the

external capacitors. In the figure, the values for R1 (feedback resistor) and R2

(damping resistor) apply to any crystal used.
