System Clock
[Figure 2-1, callout 11]
The system clock source is a Silicon Labs SI5335A quad clock generator U122. The system
clock (SYSCLK) is a LVDS 300 MHz clock sourced from the CLK0A output pair of U122.
SYSCLK is wired to SI53340 U157 clock MUX/quad-buffer input CLK0 P/N inputs (pins 6 (P)
and 7 (N)).
The 3.3V SI53340 U157 has four LVDS output clock pairs:
• U157 output Q0 drives clock pair SYSCLK1_300_P/N, connected to XCVU9P FPGA U1
bank 47 global clock (GC) pins G31 and F31 (series capacitor coupled), respectively.
• U157 output Q1 drives clock pair SYSCLK2_300_P/N which is not connected to XCVU9P
FPGA U1, it is wired to the SI53340 U104 CLK1 input.
• U157 output Q2 drives clock pair USER_SI570_CLOCK1_P/N, connected to XCVU9P
FPGA U1 bank 64 global clock (GC) pins AW23 and AW22, respectively.
• U157 output Q3 is not connected.
