9ZX21501C
9ZX21501C is FIFTEEN OUTPUT DIFFERENTIAL ZBUFFER manufactured by IDT.
Description
The 9ZX21501C is a 15-output version of the Intel DB1900Z Differential Buffer suitable for PCI-Express Gen3 or QPI applications. The part is backwards patible to PCIe Gen1 and Gen2. A fixed external feedback maintains low drift for critical QPI applications. In bypass mode, the 9ZX21501C can provide outputs up to 400MHz.
Remended Application
15-output PCIe Gen3/QPI buffer with fixed feedback for Romley platforms
Output Features
- 15
- 0.7V current mode differential HCSL output pairs

Features
/Benefits
- Fixed feedback path; 0ps input-to-output delay
- 9 Selectable SMBus addresses; multiple devices can share same SMBus segment
- 7 dedicated OE# pins; hardware control of outputs
- PLL or bypass mode; PLL can dejitter ining clock
- Selectable PLL BW; minimizes jitter peaking in downstream PLL's
- Spread spectrum patible; tracks spreading input clock for EMI reduction
- SMBus Interface; unused outputs can be disabled
- 100MHz & 133.33MHz PLL mode; legacy QPI support
- Undriven differential outputs in Power Down mode for maximum power savings
