The device has a low cost, on-chip VCO that locks to either 8´ or 16´ the frequency at the 19.44 MHz or 9.72 MHz input. No external components are needed for frequency synthesis; however, the user can adjust loop dynamics through selection of a damping factor capacitor whose value determines loop damping. The AD809 design guarantees that the clock output frequency will drift low (by roughly 20%) in the absence of a signal at the input.
