An analog / digital mixed mode frequency multiplication and distribution ASIC for switch link or network synchronization of ATM switching system for B-ISDN has designed. This ASIC generates 234-7 MHz system clock and 77.76 MHz, 19.44 MHz user clocks using 46.94 MHz external clock. It also includes digital circuits for checking and selecting between the two external clocks. For effective ASIC design, full custom technique is used in analog PLL circuit and standard cell based technique is used in digital circuit. Resistors and capacitors are specially designed so the chip can be implemented in 0.8$\mu\textrm{m}$ digital CMOS technology.

An analog/digital mixed mode ASIC for network synchronization of ATM switching system has been designed and fabricated. This ASIC generates a 234.7/46.94 ㎒ system clock and 77.76/19.44 ㎒ user clock using 46.94 ㎒ transmitted clocks from other systems. It also includes digital circuits for checking and selecting of the transmitted clocks. For effective ASIC design, full custom technique is used in 2 analog PLL circuits design, and standard cell based technique is used in digital circuit design. Resistors and capacitors for analog circuits are specially designed which can be fabricated in general CMOS technology, so the chip can be implemented in 0.8$\mu\textrm{m}$ digital CMOS technology with no expensive. Testing results show stable 234.7 ㎒ and 19.44 ㎒ clocks generation with each 4㎰ and 17㎰ of low ms jitter.
