859S0212BGILFT

Overview

The 859S0212BGILFT is a clock generator integrated circuit manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It belongs to the FemtoClock series and features an integrated Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) for frequency synthesis. The device accepts a crystal input and provides LVDS output signals. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.375V to 3.465V and supports a maximum output frequency of 170MHz. The component is designed for surface-mount installation in an 8-TSSOP package with a width of 0.173 inches (4.40mm).

Feature Summary

• Integrates a PLL for low-jitter clock generation.
• Converts crystal input to differential LVDS outputs.
• Supports frequency multiplication and division functions.

Applications

• High-speed serial communication interfaces
• Data acquisition systems
• Test and measurement equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'LFT' indicates tape-and-reel packaging when sourcing components. Confirm RoHS compliance status, as historical data for similar Renesas FemtoClock devices indicates varying environmental certifications depending on the manufacturing date code. Ensure the 8-TSSOP footprint matches the target PCB layout constraints before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-jitter LVDS clock signal is required from a crystal source. The integrated PLL eliminates the need for external synthesizers. Consider the 170MHz maximum frequency limit and the 2.375V to 3.465V operating voltage range to ensure compatibility with the system power rails and timing requirements.

Part Context

This part is part of the Renesas FemtoClock family, which specializes in precision clock generators.
