82575 Ethernet Controller Design Guide

6.0Oscillator Support

The 82575 clock input circuit is optimized for use with an external crystal. However, an oscillator can also be used in place of the crystal with the proper design considerations:

The clock oscillator has an internal voltage regulator of 1.2 V to isolate it from the external noise of other circuits to minimize jitter. If an external clock is used, this imposes a maximum input clock amplitude of 1.2 V.

The input capacitance introduced by the 82575 (approximately 20 pF) is greater than the capacitance specified by a typical oscillator (approximately 15 pF).

The input clock jitter from the oscillator can impact the 82575 clock and its performance.

6.1Oscillator Solution

This solution involves capacitor C1, which forms a capacitor divider with Cstray of about 20 pF. This attenuates the input clock amplitude and adjusts the clock oscillator load capacitance.

Vin = VDD * (C1/(C1 + Cstray))

Vin = 3.3 * (C1/(C1 + Cstray))

This enables load clock oscillators of 15 pF to be used. If the value of Cstray is unknown, C1 should be adjusted by tuning the input clock amplitude to approximately 1 Vptp. If Cstray equals 20 pF, then C1 is 10 pF ±10%.
