3 Hardware Components Master Clock System
52 System Reference, January 2001
All master clock sources are phase-locked on the distrib-
uted 10 MHz reference from one of the following:
• Digital clock domain’s AMC
• Analog clock domain’s AMC
(if no digital clock domain’s AMC is configured)
• Clock board in cardcage #1 on the 512-pin testhead or
#5 on the 1024-pin testhead (if no AMC is configured)
The following figures show the master clock distribution
on the 512-pin and 1024-pin testheads. The hardware
configuration and connections are shown in a simplified
for easy understanding.
The master clock generators on the clock boards in card-
cages #2 and #4 on the 512-pin testhead or cardcages #2,
#4, #6 and #8 on the 1024-pin testhead are used with the
same setting condition for analog modules, if the master
clock generated from the clock board is selected.
The master clock from the analog clock domain’s AMC is
split by the power splitter once, then the split clocks are
directly sent to the clock boards in the cardcages where
the analog modules are installed.
