Tool enables prediction of phase-noise performance

Cypress Semiconductor Corp. rolls out the CyClockWizard 1.0 free software tool that includes a parametric search engine that allows customers to quickly identify the right product for their system needs.

The free tool also integrates custom configuration and field programming of supported Cypress timing solutions. The CyClockWizard 1.0 tool features an intuitive user interface for custom configuration of timing devices. Customers can directly program devices instantaneously using the CYCLKMAKER1 Hardware Programmer.

For Cypress's FleXO family of programmable high-performance clock generators, the tool incorporates a calculation engine that enables customers to predict and optimise phase-noise performance.
