23S08E-3DCGI8

Overview

The Renesas Electronics Corporation 23S08E-3DCGI8 is a PLL-based clock driver belonging to the 23S series. It features eight true LVCMOS outputs with zero inverted outputs, housed in a green SOIC-16 package (PDSO16). The device operates as a clock multiplier and supports spread spectrum input compatibility. It is designed for applications requiring precise clock distribution with low jitter characteristics typical of the 23S family.

Feature Summary

• PLL-based clock driver with 8 true LVCMOS outputs
• Zero-delay buffer functionality within the 23S series
• Compatible with spread spectrum input signals
• Housed in a standard SOIC-16 surface-mount package

Applications

• Digital signal processing systems requiring clock multiplication
• Communication equipment needing low-jitter clock distribution
• Computer motherboards and peripheral interfaces

Part Context

This component is part of the IDT/Renesas 23S series of clock multipliers and buffers. The '23S' designation indicates a specific generation of PLL-based clock drivers known for their ability to multiply input frequencies while maintaining low output skew and jitter. The suffix 'DCGI8' specifies the industrial temperature range, lead-free composition, and tape-and-reel packaging format.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other variants from the 23S08 family such as the 23S08E-4DCI8 or 23S08-2HDCG, provided pinout and electrical specifications match. Verify that the substitute supports the required input frequency range and spread spectrum compatibility.
