23S08E-3DCG8

Overview

The 23S08E-3DCG8 is a clock multiplier component manufactured by Renesas Electronics, belonging to the 23S08 series. It operates as a zero-delay clock multiplier with spread spectrum capabilities, designed for low jitter performance. The device accepts LVCMOS input signals and provides eight LVCMOS outputs. It functions within a supply voltage range of 3.3V and supports an input frequency range of 10 MHz to 133 MHz. The output frequency can be adjusted between 10 MHz and 133 MHz. The component is housed in a 16-pin SOIC package (DCG16) suitable for surface mount technology.

Feature Summary

• Zero-delay clock multiplier architecture ensuring minimal propagation delay.
• Spread spectrum compatibility for EMI reduction applications.
• Eight LVCMOS outputs supporting high-speed digital systems.
• Operates on a single 3.3V power supply.

Applications

• High-performance computing systems requiring precise clock distribution.
• Telecommunications equipment utilizing spread spectrum techniques.
• Industrial control systems needing stable clock generation.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '8' against official Renesas documentation to confirm packaging details, such as tube or reel quantities. Confirm current availability status as this part number may have limited stock or end-of-life implications. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives and moisture sensitivity levels before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a zero-delay buffer with spread spectrum capability is required for 3.3V logic families. Compare the 133 MHz maximum frequency against system requirements. Consider the SOIC-16 package constraints for PCB layout. Verify if the spread spectrum feature is necessary for electromagnetic interference mitigation in the target design.

Part Context

This component is part of the IDT/Renesas 23S08 family of clock multipliers. Similar variants include the 23S08-2HDCG and 23S08-1HPGG, which differ primarily in package type (SOIC vs TSSOP) and specific electrical characteristics. The 23S08 series is widely used in legacy and modern digital designs requiring reliable clock multiplication.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements may include other members of the 23S08 family, such as the 23S08-2HDCG or 23S08-1HPGG, depending on package preference. Cross-reference with Renesas's current portfolio for updated equivalents, as older IDT parts may have been superseded by newer FemtoClock series devices for lower jitter applications.
