Product details
Overview
DS1077LU-66+ from Maxim Integrated is a dual-output, nonvolatile, programmable fixed-frequency oscillator with 66.666MHz master clock capability, ±0.5% initial frequency tolerance, and ±1.25% variation over temperature and supply voltage. It delivers synchronous low-jitter outputs (OUT0 and OUT1), supports on-the-fly reprogramming via 2-wire interface, and operates from a single 2.7V–3.6V supply in an 8-pin µSOP package for space-constrained timing applications.
For engineers reviewing the DS1077LU-66+ datasheet, DS1077LU-66+ pinout, DS1077LU-66+ application, or DS1077LU-66+ equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-synchronous output architecture, EEPROM-stored prescaler/divider settings (P0/P1/N), power-down mode with CTRL0/CTRL1 control, and compatibility with both standard (100kHz) and fast-mode (400kHz) I²C buses.
Technical Context
The DS1077LU-66+ integrates a factory-trimmed internal master oscillator (66.666MHz nominal), two independent programmable prescalers (P0 and P1, each selectable for ÷1/÷2/÷4/÷8), and a 10-bit programmable divider (N = 2–1025) on OUT1. Its control logic enables synchronous output gating, output enable, and power-down functions via configurable CTRL0 and CTRL1 pins.
Frequency configuration is stored in nonvolatile EEPROM and persists across power cycles. The 2-wire serial interface supports read/write access to DIV, MUX, and BUS registers, with automatic EEPROM write enabled by default (WC=0), ensuring robust in-system reconfiguration without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Master Frequency | 66.666MHz - sets upper bound for programmable output frequencies; determines resolution and jitter floor. |
| Output Frequency Range | 4.87kHz to 66.666MHz - achieved via prescaler and divider combinations; no external components required. |
| Initial Tolerance | ±0.5% - ensures accurate clock generation at power-up without calibration. |
| Temp/Voltage Variation | ±1.25% - guarantees stable timing across industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) and supply (2.7V–3.6V). |
| Output Jitter | 50ps pk-pk (3σ) at 66MHz - enables reliable high-speed digital interfacing and low-bit-error-rate communication. |
| Supply Current (Active) | 30mA max (both outputs loaded) - optimized for low-power embedded systems with dynamic output enable control. |
| Power-Down Current | 10µA - reduces system standby power significantly when outputs are disabled via CTRL0 or CTRL1. |
Pinout & Package
DS1077LU-66+ uses an 8-pin 118mil µSOP package (JEDEC MO-187AA), optimized for minimal PCB footprint and high-density timing solutions.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OUT1 | Main oscillator output | Delivers primary clock signal; frequency determined by P1 prescaler and N divider (or bypassed via DIV1=1). |
| OUT0 | Reference output | Provides secondary synchronized clock; frequency set by P0 prescaler and MUX selection. |
| VCC | Power supply | Single 2.7V–3.6V supply input; requires local 0.01µF + 0.1µF ceramic decoupling. |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all analog/digital circuitry; must be low-impedance for jitter control. |
| CTRL0 | Multi-function control pin | Configurable as MUX select, OUT0 enable, or power-down (via EN0/SEL0/PDN0 register bits). |
| CTRL1 | Multi-function control pin | Configurable as OUT1 enable or device power-down (via PDN1 register bit); OR-connected with CTRL0 for shutdown. |
| SDA | 2-wire serial data I/O | Open-drain bidirectional line; requires external 5kΩ pull-up; supports 100kHz/400kHz I²C protocols. |
| SCL | 2-wire serial clock input | Master-generated clock synchronizing all register reads/writes; tolerant of standard/fast-mode timing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual synchronous outputs | OUT0 and OUT1 share phase-aligned timing derived from same master oscillator, eliminating inter-channel skew in multi-clock domains. |
| Nonvolatile frequency storage | All prescaler/divider and control register values retained in EEPROM, enabling "set-and-forget" deployment without boot-time programming. |
| On-the-fly reprogramming | Frequencies and modes updated in-circuit via I²C without reset or power cycle-critical for adaptive clocking in field-upgradable systems. |
| Programmable power-down | Either CTRL0 or CTRL1 can independently trigger full device shutdown (10µA), supporting dynamic power management in battery-sensitive designs. |
| No external components | Self-contained oscillator core eliminates crystals, load capacitors, and feedback resistors-reducing BOM count and layout complexity. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output frequency of the DS1077LU-66+?
The DS1077LU-66+ has a nominal master oscillator frequency of 66.666MHz, which is also its maximum output frequency. This value is factory-trimmed and fixed for the -66 variant; OUT1 can deliver this full frequency when the N divider is bypassed (DIV1 = 1) and P1 = ÷1. No external components are needed to achieve this output.
Does the DS1077LU-66+ require an external crystal or resonator?
No, the DS1077LU-66+ does not require any external crystal, resonator, or load capacitors. It contains a fully integrated, factory-calibrated silicon oscillator core. All timing functionality-including dual outputs, prescaling, and division-is implemented internally, making DS1077LU-66+ a true "no-component" clock solution.
How is frequency programmed on the DS1077LU-66+?
Frequency is programmed via the 2-wire (I²C-compatible) serial interface using three register groups: DIV (10-bit N divider), MUX (prescaler control bits 0M1/0M0/1M1/1M0), and BUS (device address). Values are written to volatile registers first, then stored permanently in EEPROM either automatically (default WC=0) or explicitly via WRITE E2 command.
Can both outputs of the DS1077LU-66+ be disabled independently?
Yes-OUT0 can be disabled via CTRL0 (configured as output enable with EN0=1, PDN0=0), and OUT1 can be disabled via CTRL1 (configured as output enable with PDN1=0). Both outputs enter high-impedance state within 1ms, and the device remains responsive to I²C commands while outputs are gated.
What is the power-down current specification for the DS1077LU-66+?
The DS1077LU-66+ draws a maximum of 10µA in power-down mode across the full operating temperature range (−40°C to +85°C). This occurs when either CTRL0 or CTRL1 is asserted as a power-down signal (PDN0=1 or PDN1=1), disabling both outputs and shutting down the internal oscillator and logic.
