Product details
Overview
CY22801KFXIT from Cypress Semiconductor is a flash-programmable universal clock generator with integrated PLL, supporting up to three LVCMOS clock outputs (CLKA, CLKB, CLKC) derived from crystal (8–30 MHz) or external clock (1–133 MHz) input. It delivers up to 200 MHz output (commercial grade), features spread spectrum (±0.25% to ±2.5%), VCXO tuning, and I²C-based field programming via CyClocksRT™ software for rapid prototyping in consumer and communications systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY22801KFXIT datasheet, CY22801KFXIT pinout, CY22801KFXIT application, or CY22801KFXIT equivalent, key selection criteria include its 8-pin SOIC package, multifunction pins (FS0/SDAT/VCXO/OE/PD#), compatibility with JEDEC programming, I²C address 0x69, and trade-offs between VCXO and spread spectrum modes - both mutually exclusive.
Technical Context
The CY22801KFXIT implements a proprietary PLL architecture with programmable P/Q dividers and two post-dividers (DIV1N/DIV2N), enabling precise frequency synthesis from a single reference. Its output routing uses a crosspoint switch matrix that allows each of three outputs to select either the PLL-derived clock, direct reference bypass, or divided reference - all configurable per-output.
It supports dual configuration methods: nonvolatile flash programming (via CY36800 dongle + CyClocksRT™) for production units, and volatile I²C programming (address 0x69) for in-system tuning. VCXO analog control (pin 3) and spread spectrum modulation (31.5 kHz default, ±0.25–2.5%) are hardware-enforced exclusive features, requiring explicit register-level disable before enabling the other.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Frequency Range | Crystal: 8–30 MHz; CLKIN: 1–133 MHz - enables flexible reference sourcing across legacy and high-speed designs. |
| Max Output Frequency | 200 MHz (commercial), 166.6 MHz (industrial) - sets upper limit for synchronous logic timing in FPGA/ASIC interfaces. |
| Output Count & Type | 3 LVCMOS outputs (CLKA, CLKB, CLKC) - supports multi-domain clocking without external fanout buffers. |
| Spread Spectrum | ±0.25% to ±2.5% center-spread, 30.1/31.5/32.9 kHz modulation - reduces EMI peak amplitude at fundamental/harmonic frequencies. |
| VCXO Tuning Range | Analog voltage-controlled pull on crystal reference - enables frequency tracking to external master clocks (e.g., telecom sync). |
| Interface Protocol | I²C-compatible serial interface (default address 0x69) - allows in-system reconfiguration without reflashing. |
| Supply Voltage | 3.3 V ±5% - matches standard logic rail, eliminates need for level-shifting in 3.3 V systems. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit), JEDEC MS-012AC, body size 3.9 mm × 4.9 mm, 1.27 mm pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (XIN/CLKIN) | Reference input | Accepts either crystal (8–30 MHz) or external clock (1–133 MHz); determines base PLL reference frequency. |
| 2 (VDD) | Power supply | 3.3 V supply pin; requires local 0.1 µF decoupling to minimize PLL jitter. |
| 3 (SDAT/FS0/VCXO/OE/PD#) | Multifunction terminal | Configurable as I²C data line, frequency select 0, VCXO analog control, output enable, or power-down - selected via internal register. |
| 4 (VSS) | Ground | Digital ground reference; must be low-impedance connection to reduce switching noise coupling into PLL. |
| 5 (CLKB/FS1/SCLK) | Output / control / interface | Primary clock output B; also serves as I²C clock (SCLK) or frequency select 1 - not simultaneously active in all modes. |
| 6 (CLKA) | Dedicated output | Independent LVCMOS clock output A; no alternate functions - simplifies routing for critical timing paths. |
| 7 (CLKC/FS2) | Output / control | Third clock output C; doubles as frequency select 2 - enables dynamic clock selection without external logic. |
| 8 (XOUT) | Crystal output | Drives external crystal; left floating when using external CLKIN - prevents signal contention. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Field-programmable flash memory | Enables one-time nonvolatile configuration (JEDEC file) for production units - eliminates dependency on host processor at boot. |
| Programmable crystal oscillator gain | 8-bit register-controlled gain adjustment - ensures reliable start-up and stable oscillation across crystal vendors and tolerances. |
| Integrated load capacitors | On-die parallel-plate capacitors replace external CL components - reduces BOM count and mitigates temperature-induced frequency drift. |
| Crosspoint switch matrix | Routes REF, PLL output, or divided clocks independently to each of three outputs - enables mixed-frequency domains from single device. |
| Weak internal pull-ups | ~100 kΩ on all multifunction pins - ensures defined logic state during power-up or I²C idle, preventing floating inputs. |
Applications
| Consumer Audio Systems | Networking Switch ASICs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
Cypress CY22801KFXIT has two verified drop-in alternatives with documented functional overlap and known trade-offs in configuration flexibility and feature support.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IDT 5V41066APFG | Fixed-function 3-output clock generator; no field-programmable flash or I²C interface - configured at factory only. | Lacks VCXO and spread spectrum; limited to pre-defined frequency combinations - unsuitable for prototyping or multi-standard devices. | Select when volume production requires zero configuration overhead and frequency set is static across entire product lifecycle. |
| ON Semi NB3N3020BDR2G | LVCMOS 3-output generator with I²C interface but no flash memory - volatile configuration only; no VCXO support. | Supports spread spectrum but lacks analog VCXO tuning; lower max output (166 MHz) and narrower input range (1–100 MHz). | Select when in-system reprogramming is mandatory but VCXO tracking is unnecessary, and cost sensitivity outweighs nonvolatile storage benefit. |
Compared with IDT 5V41066APFG and ON Semi NB3N3020BDR2G, CY22801KFXIT uniquely combines nonvolatile flash programming, analog VCXO control, and spread spectrum - making it optimal for applications requiring field-upgradable timing, frequency tracking, and EMI reduction in a single 8-pin SOIC package.

FAQ
What is the default state of CY22801KFXIT after power-up?
At power-on, unprogrammed CY22801KFXIT defaults to all outputs tri-stated, crystal oscillator active, and all registers set to zero. No clocks are generated until programmed via I²C or flash. Factory-shipped units are blank; distributors typically pre-program with customer-specific JEDEC files using CyClocksRT™ and CY36800 dongle.
Can VCXO and spread spectrum be used simultaneously on CY22801KFXIT?
No. VCXO and spread spectrum are mutually exclusive features in CY22801KFXIT. Enabling one automatically disables the other at the hardware level. This is enforced by internal logic - attempting to configure both results in undefined behavior or failure to lock. Designers must choose based on application priority: frequency tracking (VCXO) or EMI reduction (SSCG).
How does the multifunction pin assignment work on pin 3 (SDAT/FS0/VCXO/OE/PD#)?
Pin 3 supports five distinct functions, but only one is active per configuration - selected by writing to specific bits in the device's function control register (0x01). For example, bit[7:6] selects OE/PD#, bit[5:4] selects FS0, bit[3:2] selects VCXO, and bit[1:0] selects SDAT. The CyClocksRT™ software auto-generates correct register values based on user-selected pin mapping in the GUI.
What is the role of the internal load capacitors in CY22801KFXIT's crystal oscillator circuit?
The CY22801KFXIT integrates on-die parallel-plate load capacitors (programmable via 8-bit register) to replace external CL components. This eliminates PCB layout sensitivity to stray capacitance, reduces BOM cost, and improves frequency stability over temperature and voltage - especially critical for high-precision consumer timing applications where crystal tolerance is tight.
