89H32NT8AG2ZAHL8

Overview

The Renesas 89H32NT8AG2ZAHL8 is a PCI Express Gen2 system interconnect switch providing 32 lanes and 8 ports. It operates with maximum clock frequencies of 125 MHz and supports data rates up to 256 Gb/s. The device requires power supply voltages of 1 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V. It functions within an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. The component utilizes a surface-mount FCBGA-484 package.

Feature Summary

• Non-blocking switch architecture optimized for high-performance system interconnect
• Partitionable switch architecture supporting true multi-root configurations
• Supports multiple Nontransparent Bridging (NTB) functions
• Includes onboard DMA support with internal buffering and flow control credits

Applications

• High-performance server system interconnect switching
• Storage area network infrastructure
• Enterprise computing platforms requiring deterministic latency

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix ZAHL8 against official Renesas documentation to confirm lead-free status and reel packaging details. Confirm current lifecycle status as this series may be obsolete or restricted in certain regions. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the 484-FCBGA package before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when 32 lanes and 8 ports are required for PCIe Gen2 applications. Compare against the 89H32NT24AG2 variant if higher port density is needed. Verify voltage requirements match the target system design for 1V, 2.5V, and 3.3V rails. Check thermal management capabilities for the specified operating temperature range.

Part Context
