The deterministic delay, expressed as t
equation, is a function of the frequency division factor (Q
the channel divider associated with the zero-delay channel.
In addition to deterministic delay, there is random delay (t
associated with the propagation of the reference signal through
the input reference receiver, as well as the propagation of the
clock signal through the clock distribution logic. The total delay is
The user can compensate for t
offset controls to move the edge timing of the distribution output
signal relative to the input reference edge. One method is to
use the open-loop phase offset registers (Address 0x030D and
Address 0x030E) for timing adjustment. However, be sure to
use sufficiently small phase increments to make the adjustment.
Too large a phase step can result in the clock distribution logic
missing a CLKINx edge, thus disrupting the edge alignment
process. The appropriate phase increment depends on the
transient response of any external circuitry connected between
the DACOUTx and CLKINx pins.
The other method is to use the closed-loop phase offset registers
(Address 0x030F to Address 0x0315) for timing adjustment.
However, be sure to use a sufficiently small phase vs. time profile.

Changing the phase too quickly can cause the DPLL to lose lock,
thus ruining the edge alignment process. Note that the AD9547
phase slew limit register (Address 0x0316 and 0x0317) can be
used to limit the rate of change of phase automatically, thereby
mitigating the potential loss-of-lock problem.
To guarantee synchronization of the output dividers, it is
important to make any edge timing adjustments after the
synchronization event. Furthermore, when making timing
adjustments, the distribution outputs can be disabled and then
renabled after the adjustment is complete. This prevents the
device from generating output clock signals during the timing
adjustment process.
Note that the form of zero-delay synchronization described here
does not track propagation time variations within the distribution
clock input path or the reference input path (on or off chip) over
temperature, supply, and so on. It is strictly a one-time synchro-
nization event.
Synchronization Mask
Each output channel has a dedicated synchronization mask bit
(Register 0x0402, Bits[1:0]). When the mask bit associated with
a particular channel is set, that channel does not respond to the
synchronization signal. This allows the device to operate with
the masked channels active and the unmasked channels stalled
while they wait for a synchronization pulse.
