FemtoClock® Zero Delay Buffer/ Clock Generator for PCI Express™ and Ethernet
ICS8714008I
DATASHEET
General Description
The ICS8714008I is Zero-Delay Buffer/Frequency Multiplier with eight differential HCSL output pairs, and uses external feedback (differential feedback input and output pairs) for “zero delay” clock regeneration. In PCI Express and Ethernet applications, 100MHz and 125MHz are the most commonly used reference clock frequencies and each of the eight output pairs can be independently set for either 100MHz or 125MHz. With an output frequency range of 98MHz to 165MHz, the device is also suitable for use in a variety of other applications such as Fibre Channel (106.25MHz) and XAUI (156.25MHz).
