Product details
Overview
CY28RS400ZXC from Cypress Semiconductor is a programmable clock generator designed specifically for the ATI RS400 chipset platform, delivering synchronized differential CPU (up to 266 MHz), 100-MHz SRC, 48-MHz USB, and 33-MHz PCI clocks with I²C-configurable output enables, spread-spectrum control, and Intel Type-X/Type-5/Type-3A buffer compliance.
For engineers reviewing the CY28RS400ZXC datasheet, CY28RS400ZXC pinout, CY28RS400ZXC application, or CY28RS400ZXC equivalent, this device supports precise frequency selection via FS_A/B/C and 409_410 latched inputs, real-time I²C register readback, Lexmark-compliant EMI reduction, and multi-rail 3.3V power domain isolation for CPU/SRC/PCI/USB/REF outputs.
Technical Context
The CY28RS400ZXC integrates two PLLs: one for CPU/SRC/PCI/USB generation from a 14.318-MHz crystal input (XIN/XOUT), and another dedicated to REF clock synthesis. It implements Intel's CK409/CK410 frequency tables with VTT_PWRGD#-latched FS_A/B/C/409_410 sampling, enabling deterministic boot-time clock configuration.
Its serial interface uses SMBus-compatible SCLK/SDATA with slave address 0xD2, supporting byte/block reads/writes to eight control registers that manage per-output enable/disable, spread-spectrum depth (–0.35% or –0.50%), drive strength (1x/2x), and CLKREQ#0/1-controlled stop modes for SRC outputs - all without requiring runtime reconfiguration.

| SCLK / SDATA | I²C interface | SMBus-compatible bus with internal pull-ups; tri-stated in power-down mode |
| VTT_PWRGD#/PD | Power-good strobe | Level-sensitive active-low input that latches FS_A/B/C/409_410 values; enables one-shot configuration |
| CLKREQ#[0:1] | SRC output enable control | Minicard-compliant active-low signals; gate SRCT/C outputs per Control Registers 4–5 |
| CPU_STP# | CPU clock gate | Active-low input disabling CPUT/C outputs after two clock cycles; configurable per CPU output via Control Register 3 |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar clock generator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ICS952006AGT | Single 14.318-MHz crystal input; supports only CK410 table; no I²C readback; fixed –0.5% spread spectrum | Lacks per-output enable control and REF clock flexibility; limited to single-frequency-table platforms | Select when I²C configurability and multi-table support are unnecessary and cost is primary constraint |
| ICS952012AGT | Includes integrated 14.318-MHz crystal oscillator; adds PCIe 1.0 reference clock (100 MHz); no CLKREQ# support | Targets PCIe-native designs; lacks Minicard-compliant CLKREQ#0/1 gating for SRC outputs | Select for PCIe-focused systems needing embedded oscillator and simplified layout, not RS400-specific timing |
Compared with ICS952006AGT and ICS952012AGT, the CY28RS400ZXC uniquely combines CK409/CK410 dual-table support, full I²C register readback, CLKREQ#0/1-gated SRC outputs, and Lexmark-specified spread-spectrum modulation - making it irreplaceable for RS400 chipset compliance and field-serviceable clock tuning.

FAQ
What crystal type and loading is required for CY28RS400ZXC?
The CY28RS400ZXC requires a parallel-resonant 14.318-MHz crystal. Using a series-resonant crystal causes >300-ppm frequency error. Total load capacitance must be twice the crystal's specified CL due to series-connected trim capacitors; trace and pin capacitance must be included in calculation.
How does VTT_PWRGD# affect frequency selection?
VTT_PWRGD# is a level-sensitive strobe that latches FS_A, FS_B, FS_C, and 409_410 logic states on its falling edge. Once sampled low, further transitions on these pins are ignored - ensuring deterministic boot-time configuration without race conditions or firmware dependency.
Can CY28RS400ZXC support both CK409 and CK410 CPU frequency tables?
Yes. The PCI0/409_410 pin determines table selection: logic 0 selects the CK410 table (using FS_A/FS_B/FS_C), and logic 1 selects the CK409 table (using only FS_A/FS_B). This dual-table capability enables compatibility across multiple Intel CPU generations on the same board design.
Is I²C communication possible during system operation?
No. The I²C interface is intended for system initialization only. Register changes cannot be made during runtime power management; all configurations must be completed before normal operation begins. The interface is tri-stated in power-down mode.
