Description

The ACS8509 is a highly integrated, single-chip solution for the Synchronous Equipment Timing Source (SETS) function in a SONET or SDH Network Element. The device generates SONET or SDH Equipment Clocks (SEC) and Frame Synchronization clocks. The ACS8509 is fully compliant with the required international specifications and standards.

The device supports Free-run, Locked and Holdover modes. It also supports all three types of reference clock source: recovered line clock, PDH network, and node synchronization. The ACS8509 generates independent SEC and BITS/SSU clocks, an 8 kHz Frame Synchronization clock and a 2 kHz Multi-Frame Synchronization clock.

Two ACS8509 devices can be used together in a Master/Slave configuration mode allowing system protection against a single ACS8509 failure.
