Technical Specifications
The 853S006AGILFT operates at frequencies up to several GHz, depending on the specific configuration. It exhibits low output skew, typically less than 50 ps, ensuring that clock signals arrive at different destinations with minimal timing differences. The additive jitter is also very low, usually below 100 fs RMS, preserving the integrity of the clock signal. The device provides multiple output clocks, often with fanout options such as 1:2, 1:4, or 1:8. It typically operates with a supply voltage of 2.5V or 3.3V. The package is usually a small form factor, such as QFN or TSSOP. The operating temperature range is generally industrial grade (-40°C to +85°C). The output enable control allows for selective enabling or disabling of the output clocks, facilitating power management and system testing.
This clock buffer is crucial in applications that demand precise timing and synchronized operation. Its low skew and jitter characteristics make it ideal for distributing clock signals in systems where timing errors can significantly impact performance and data integrity. The 853S006AGILFT is widely used in networking equipment, data centers, and high-performance computing systems to ensure reliable and efficient data transmission.
