853S006AGILF

Overview

The 853S006AGILF is a low skew, high-performance 1-to-6 differential-to-2.5V/3.3V LVPECL/ECL fanout buffer manufactured by Renesas Electronics. It features one differential PCLK/nPCLK input pair and six differential outputs. The device accepts LVPECL, LVDS, or CML input levels and operates within a supply voltage range of 2.375V to 3.465V for LVPECL mode. Key electrical parameters include a maximum output frequency of 2 GHz, a maximum propagation delay of 550 ps, and a maximum output skew of 50 ps. It is housed in a 20-TSSOP package with dimensions of 6.5 x 4.4 x 1.0 mm.

Feature Summary

• Six differential 2.5V/3.3V LVPECL/ECL outputs
• Maximum output frequency of 2 GHz
• Low output skew (50 ps max) and part-to-part skew (230 ps max)
• Accepts LVPECL, LVDS, or CML differential input levels

Applications

• Clock distribution networks requiring well-defined performance
• High-speed digital systems demanding repeatability
• Applications utilizing LVPECL or ECL logic families

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'GILF' corresponds to the lead-free (RoHS 6) tube packaging variant. Confirm the 20-TSSOP package dimensions and pinout match the design requirements. Ensure the operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C aligns with the system environment. Check for any recent Product Change Notices regarding assembly location or material updates.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single differential clock source needs to drive up to six LVPECL or ECL loads with minimal skew. Compare the 550 ps propagation delay against system timing budgets. Consider the 2.375V to 3.465V supply requirement for power management. Evaluate the 230 ps part-to-part skew if strict synchronization across multiple devices is critical.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 853S006I series of low skew fanout buffers. It serves as a replacement for older generation buffers in high-speed clocking applications. The device is characterized for operation from either a 2.5V or 3.3V power supply, providing flexibility in system design.

Replacement Considerations

The datasheet lists 853S006AGILF as an active part. Potential substitutes may include other 1-to-6 LVPECL/ECL fanout buffers from the same manufacturer family, provided they meet the 2 GHz frequency and skew specifications.
