FIN12AC

The FIN12AC is a 12-bit serializer capable of running a parallel frequency range between 5MHz and 56MHz. The frequency range is selected by the S1 and S2 control signals.The bi-directional data flow is controlled through use of a direction (DIRI) control pin. The FIN12AC can be configured to operate in a unidirectional mode only by hardwiring the DIRI pin. An internal PLL generates the required bit clock frequency for transfer across the serial link. Options exist for dual or single PLL operation dependent upon system operational parameters. The FIN12AC has been designed for low power operation and utilizes Fairchild Proprietary Low Power CTL interface. The device also supports an ultra low power Power-Down mode for conserving power in battery operated applications.
