Power and Ground Signal Inputs
Description
Internal Logic Power
V
DD
dedicated for use with the device core. The voltage should be well-regulated and the input should be provided with
an extremely low impedance path to the V
DD
power rail.
Input/Output Power
This source supplies power for the I/O buffers. The user must provide adequate external decoupling capacitors.
System PLL Power
V
CC
dedicated for use with the system Phase Lock Loop (PLL). The voltage should be well-regulated and the input
should be provided with an extremely low impedance path to the V
CC
power rail.
SC140 PLL Power
V
CC
dedicated for use with the SC140 core PLL. The voltage should be well-regulated and the input should be provided
with an extremely low impedance path to the V
CC
power rail.
System Ground
An isolated ground for the internal processing logic. This connection must be tied externally to all chip ground
connections, except GND
SYN
and GND
SYN1
. The user must provide adequate external decoupling capacitors.
System PLL Ground
Ground dedicated for system PLL use. The connection should be provided with an extremely low-impedance path to
ground.
SC140 PLL Ground 1
Ground dedicated for SC140 core PLL use. The connection should be provided with an extremely low-impedance path
to ground.
