Figure 37. Four Possible PLLLOCK Phases for N = 4 in External Clock Mode
To synchronize PLLLOCK input clocks across multiple DAC5686 chips, a synchronization signal on the PHSTR
pin is used. During configuration of the DAC5686 chips, address sync_phstr in config_msb is set high to
enable the PHSTR input pin as a synchronization input to the clock dividers generating the input clock. A
simultaneous low-to-high transition on the PHSTR pin for each DAC5686 then forces the input clock on
PLLLOCK to start in phase on each DAC. See Figure 38 .
