853S014AGILF

Overview

The 853S014AGILF is a low skew, high-performance 1-to-5 differential-to-LVPECL/ECL fanout buffer manufactured by Renesas Electronics. It features two selectable differential LVPECL clock inputs (PCLKx, nPCLKx) that accept LVPECL, LVDS, CML, or SSTL signal levels. The device supports a maximum output frequency of 2 GHz with a typical propagation delay of 500 ps and an additive phase jitter of 0.10 ps RMS. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.375 V to 3.8 V for LVPECL mode or -3.8 V to -2.375 V for ECL mode, functioning reliably in ambient temperatures from -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Five differential LVPECL/ECL outputs with guaranteed part-to-part skew of 100 ps maximum.
• Selectable differential inputs supporting LVPECL, LVDS, CML, and SSTL logic levels.
• Low additive phase jitter of 0.10 ps RMS and propagation delay of 500 ps maximum.
• Dual voltage supply capability: 2.5V/3.3V LVPECL or negative ECL operation.

Applications

• High-speed networking equipment requiring precise clock distribution.
• Telecommunications infrastructure utilizing LVPECL/ECL signaling standards.
• Computing systems demanding low skew clock buffering for multiple components.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'AGILF' corresponds to the lead-free tube packaging variant rather than the tape-and-reel version. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation prior to integration. Ensure input signal levels match the supported LVPECL, LVDS, CML, or SSTL specifications to maintain performance integrity.

Selection Notes

Select this component when five buffered outputs are required from a single differential source with strict skew constraints. Compare against the 853S014I generic series designation to ensure package compatibility. Verify that the system power supply aligns with either the positive LVPECL or negative ECL operating ranges defined in the datasheet.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 853S014I series of clock buffers designed for space-constrained applications requiring high repeatability. It serves as a critical interface between high-frequency clock sources and downstream logic devices, ensuring signal integrity across multiple branches in complex timing architectures.

Replacement Considerations

The 853S014AGILFT is the reel-packaged equivalent of this tube-mounted component. Generic series replacements include the 853S014I base model, though pinout and electrical characteristics must be validated against specific application requirements before substitution.
