89H24NT6AG2ZBHL

Overview

The Renesas 89H24NT6AG2ZBHL is a PCIe Gen2 system interconnect switch providing 24 lanes and 6 ports. It operates with supply voltages of 1V, 2.5V, and 3.3V. The device supports data rates up to 5.0 GT/s, delivering a total switching capacity of 192 Gb/s. It utilizes a non-blocking architecture optimized for high-performance applications. The component is housed in a 484-FCBGA package measuring 23x23 mm. It functions within an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Supports partitionable switch architecture for multi-root systems
• Enables dynamic port reconfiguration across exchange partitions
• Integrates multiple Nontransparent Bridging (NTB) functions
• Features low-latency, deterministic switching with internal buffering

Applications

• High-performance server system interconnects
• Storage area network infrastructure
• Communication equipment backbone routing
• Multi-host embedded systems requiring peer-to-peer traffic

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix ZBHL against current manufacturer documentation to confirm lead-free status and moisture sensitivity level. Confirm RoHS compliance requirements as earlier variants may differ. Check for End-of-Life notices or Product Change Notifications that may affect long-term availability. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact package and temperature grade required for the design.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring 24 PCIe Gen2 lanes with flexible port configuration. It is suitable for applications needing true multi-root support and logical isolation via partitioning. Consider the 484-FCBGA footprint constraints during PCB layout. Evaluate thermal management needs given the power consumption characteristics of high-speed switching operations.

Part Context

This part belongs to the IDT/Renesas 89HPES series of PCIe switches. It succeeds earlier generations by offering enhanced partitioning and NTB capabilities. The 89H24NT6AG2 variant specifically targets high-density I/O expansion and system interconnect needs. It complements other members like the 89H32NT24AG2 which offers higher lane counts.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided source material. Verify compatibility with alternative PCIe switches from the same family, such as the 89H24NT24G2, noting differences in lane count and port configuration.
