Zarlink Semiconductor (Ottawa, Canada) has introduced ClockCenter, a platform for high-speed optical transport network (OTN) and communications equipment. ClockCenter synchronous products synchronize “any rate, any port, all the time,” meaning the single-chip solution accepts and generates any frequency (1 kHz to 720 MHz) required to support all communication services delivered over optical and Ethernet networks. The ClockCenter free run products are suitable for designing equipment for a range of applications that have traditionally relied on multiple oscillators, logic converters, and fan outs to time processors, memory chips, PHY chips, and more. The free run clock products allow equipment manufacturers to replace multiple external components with an integrated single-chip device.
