2304NZLNTGI

Overview

The 2304NZLNTGI is a high-performance, low skew, low jitter 1:4 LVCMOS clock buffer manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It operates within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and supports power supplies from 1.8V to 3.3V. The device features a low input-to-output propagation delay of 1.8ns at 3.3V and a maximum output skew of 40ps. It includes a glitch-free Output Enable function and is packaged in a small 8-pin 2 × 2 mm DFN format.

Feature Summary

• Low input to output propagation delay (1.8ns at 3.3V)
• Low output skew with a maximum of 40ps
• Glitch-free Output Enable function
• Supports 1.8V to 3.3V power supply ranges

Applications

• PCI/PCI-X applications
• Networking applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package type and lead configuration for the 2304NZLNTGI variant, which utilizes an 8-lead DFN package. Confirm that the component meets the required industrial temperature specifications (-40°C to +85°C) for the intended deployment environment. Ensure compatibility with LVCMOS logic levels across the specified voltage range.

Selection Notes

Select the 2304NZLNTGI when a compact 2x2mm DFN footprint is required for 1:4 clock distribution. This part is suitable for designs needing minimal propagation delay and skew under 40ps. Verify that the system power supply aligns with the 1.8V to 3.3V operating range and that the thermal requirements fall within the industrial grade limits.

Part Context

The 2304NZLNTGI belongs to the 2304NZL series of LVCMOS clock buffers. It shares core electrical characteristics with other variants like the SOIC and TSSOP versions but differs in its physical packaging. The NTGI suffix specifically denotes the 8-pin DFN package option, providing a smaller form factor compared to standard plastic packages.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other 2304NZL variants such as 2304NZLDCGI (SOIC) or 2304NZLPGGI (TSSOP), provided the PCB layout accommodates the different package dimensions. Cross-package substitution requires verification of pinout compatibility and mechanical fit.
