Pin 3 Configuration Options (OE, ST, or NC)

Pin 3 of the SiT2018 can be factory-programmed to support

three modes: Output Enable (OE), standby (ST) or No

Connect (NC).

Output Enable (OE) Mode

In the OE mode, applying logic Low to the OE pin only disables

the output driver and puts it in Hi-Z mode. The core of the

device continues to operate normally. Power consumption is

reduced due to the inactivity of the output. When the OE pin is

pulled High, the output is typically enabled in <1µs.

Standby (ST) Mode

In the ST mode, a device enters into the standby mode when

Pin 3 pulled Low. All internal circuits of the device are turned

off. The current is reduced to a standby current, typically in the

range of a few µA. When ST is pulled High, the device goes

through the “resume” process, which can take up to 5 ms.

No Connect (NC) Mode

In the NC mode, the device always operates in its normal

mode and outputs the specified frequency regardless of the

logic level on pin 3.

Table 12 below summarizes the key relevant parameters in the

operation of the device in OE, ST, or NC mode.

Output on Startup and Resume

The SiT2018 comes with gated output. Its clock output is

accurate to the rated frequency stability within the first pulse

from initial device startup or resume from the standby mode.

In addition, the SiT2018 supports “no runt” pulses, and “no

glitch” output during startup or resume as shown in the

waveform captures in Figure 17 and Figure 18.
