23S08-4DCGI8

Overview

The Renesas 23S08-4DCGI8 is a 3.3V zero-delay clock multiplier belonging to the 23S08 series, manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It operates within an industrial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C and utilizes an SOIC-16 surface-mount package with a lead pitch of 1.27 mm. The device accepts LVCMOS input signals in the frequency range of 10 MHz to 133 MHz and provides eight LVCMOS outputs capable of frequencies up to 133 MHz. Key electrical specifications include a maximum center-to-center jitter of 200 ps peak-to-peak and an output skew of 200 ps. The component supports spread spectrum input and features a multiply/divide value of 1 or 2.

Feature Summary

• Zero-delay PLL architecture for precise clock synchronization
• Spread spectrum compatible input functionality
• Eight LVCMOS outputs with configurable multiplication factors (1x or 2x)
• Low jitter performance with 200 ps max C-C jitter

Applications

• High-speed digital system clock distribution
• Data communication equipment requiring low-skew timing
• Industrial control systems operating at 3.3V logic levels

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized channels as this part number may be subject to obsolescence notices. Confirm moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) handling requirements during storage and assembly. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for SOIC-16 packages before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-input, multi-output clock solution with minimal propagation delay variation is required. The 23S08-4DCGI8 is suitable for designs needing spread spectrum modulation support to reduce EMI. Compare against the 23S08-3DCG variant if different packaging or specific frequency constraints apply.

Part Context

This component is part of the broader 23S08 family of zero-delay buffers and multipliers from Renesas. It shares architectural similarities with other members like the 23S08-2HDCG but differs in package type and specific electrical tolerances. The 'I' suffix typically denotes the industrial temperature grade, while 'GI8' indicates the specific tape-and-reel packaging configuration.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same family include the 23S08-2HDCG and 23S08-3DCG, provided package differences are accounted for. Verify that substitute parts meet the same 200 ps jitter and skew specifications for critical timing applications.
