Using the On–Board Crystal Oscillator
allow for seed clock generaytion as well as final distribution.
The on–board oscillator is completely self contained so that
the only external component required is the crystal. As the
oscillator is somewhat sensitive to loading on its inputs the
user is advised to mount the crystal as close to the MPC970
as possible to avoid any board level parasitics. To facilitate
co–location surface mount crystals are recommended, but
not required. In addition, with crystals with a higher shunt
capacitance, it may be necessary to place a 1k resistor
across the two crystal leads.
opposed to the more common parallel resonant circuit, this
eliminates the need for large on–board capacitors. Because
the design is a series resonant design for the optimum
frequency accuracy a series resonant crystal should be used
(see specification table below). Unfortunately most off the
shelf crystals are characterized in a parallel resonant mode.
However a parallel resonant crystal is physically no different
than a series resonant crystal, a parallel resonant crystal is
simply a crystal which has been characterized in its parallel
resonant mode. Therefore in the majority of cases a parallel
specified crystal can be used with the MPC970 with just a
minor frequency error due to the actual series resonant
frequency of the parallel resonant specified crystal. Typically
a parallel specified crystal used in a series resonant mode
will exhibit an oscillatory frequency a few hundred ppm lower

inaccuracies, a level which does not represent a major issue.

and not a synthesizer with a fixed input frequency. As a result
the crystal input frequency is a function of the desired output
frequency. For a design which utilizes the external feedback
to the PLL the selection of the crystal frequency is straight
forward; simply chose a crystal which is equal in frequency to
the fed back signal. To determine the crystal required to

To provide the optimum flexibility to the user the output
drivers were designed to exhibit the lowest impedance
possible. With an output impedance of less than 10Ω the
drivers can drive either parallel or series terminated
transmission lines. For more information on transmission
lines the reader is referred to application note AN1091 in the
