General Description
The DS1099 is a low-cost, low-power, low-frequency
silicon oscillator that generates two square-wave out-
puts with frequencies between 0.25Hz and 1.048MHz.
Individual output enables allow both outputs to be
enabled/disabled independently. Both outputs are
capable of sinking 16mA, allowing them to directly
interface to light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as well as other
external circuitry. The DS1099 operates over a wide
supply voltage, making it suitable for both 3V and 5V
systems. The device is shipped from the factory custom
programmed and calibrated, ready to be inserted into
the end application.
Contact the factory for custom frequencies or require-
ments.

Detailed Description
The DS1099 consists of a fixed-frequency 1.048MHz
master oscillator followed by two independent factory-
programmable dividers. The two divider outputs are
connected to pins OUT0 and OUT1, which are inde-
pendently enabled/disabled using the output-enable
pins, OE0 and OE1, respectively. When the output-
enable pins are active (low), the corresponding outputs
are enabled. If either output-enable pin is tied to its
inactive state (high), then the corresponding output is
disabled and forced high immediately. The output-
enable pins only disable the corresponding output
driver(s) and do not shut down the master oscillator or
the dividers.
Since the master oscillator frequency, f
MOSC
, is fixed,
the frequency of OUT0 and OUT1 is determined by
DIVIDER 0 and DIVIDER 1, respectively. And since
each output has its own divider, f
OUT0
and f
OUT1
can
be programmed independent of each other.
The frequency of the outputs are calculated as follows:
f
OUT0
= f
MOSC
/ 2
X0
= 1.048MHz / 2
X0
f
OUT1
= f
MOSC
/ 2
X1
= 1.048MHz / 2
X1
where X
0
is the DIVIDER 0 setting and X
1
is the
DIVIDER 1 setting. Valid values for X
0
and X
1
are inte-
gers 0 to 22 (dec).
Table 1 shows output frequencies and divider values
for the range of divider settings.

The divider settings, X
0
and X
1
, are factory pro-
grammed. When placing an order for the DS1099, it is
required to specify X
0
and X
1
. If only one output is used,
it is recommended that the unused output be disabled.
The oscillator outputs are asynchronous. Since the
master oscillator and dividers are free running, even
when both outputs are disabled, the state of the output
when OE becomes active is unknown for up to half an
f
OUT
period. When OE is brought low, the output is
enabled instantaneously. Likewise, if the output is dis-
abled while outputting the low half of a cycle, the out-
put instantaneously is forced high before the current
cycle is completed.
Application Information
Power-Supply Decoupling
To achieve best results, it is highly recommended that
a decoupling capacitor is used on the IC power-supply
pins. Typical values of decoupling capacitors are
0.01F and 0.1F. Use a high-quality, ceramic, sur-
face-mount capacitor, and mount it as close as possi-
ble to the V
CC
and GND pins of the IC to minimize lead
inductance.
