276PGILF

Overview

The ICS276PGILF is a triple PLL field-programmable VCXO clock synthesizer from the Renesas VersaClock series. It generates up to three high-frequency clock outputs, including multiple reference clocks, from a low-frequency crystal input. The device operates with a supply voltage of 3.135V to 3.465V and supports frequencies up to 200MHz. It features CMOS outputs and is housed in a 16-TSSOP package. Designed to replace crystals and oscillators, it includes frequency dividers and multipliers.

Feature Summary

• Triple PLL architecture for generating up to three high-quality clock outputs
• Field-programmable VCXO functionality for precise frequency control
• CMOS output interface with 1:3 input-to-output ratio
• Integrated frequency divider and multiplier capabilities

Applications

• Systems requiring replacement of discrete crystals and crystal oscillators
• Electronic systems needing multiple reference clock signals from a single low-frequency source
• Applications utilizing field-programmable variable control oscillator (VCXO) requirements

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'LF' indicates lead-free compliance as per manufacturer documentation. Confirm the 16-TSSOP package dimensions match the design footprint. Ensure the operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C aligns with system environmental specifications. Cross-reference the part number with official Renesas databases to confirm current production status and availability.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single low-frequency crystal input must drive multiple high-frequency CMOS loads. The ICS276PGILF is suitable for designs requiring programmable frequency synthesis without external components. Verify that the required output frequency does not exceed 200MHz and that the 3.3V nominal supply voltage is compatible with the system power rails.

Part Context

The ICS276PGILF belongs to the Renesas VersaClock family of clock generators. This series focuses on providing flexible, programmable clock solutions to reduce bill-of-materials by replacing multiple passive timing components. The ICS276 variant specifically addresses applications needing triple output distribution with VCXO tuning capabilities.
