89HAL808G2ZCHL8

Specialized Overview

The 89HAL808G2ZCHL8 is a PCI Express switch interface integrated circuit manufactured by Renesas Electronics. It provides eight PCIe Gen2 lanes and eight ports for high-performance system interconnect switching. The device supports non-blocking throughput across multiple traffic flows. It operates with supply voltages of 1V, 2.5V, and 3.3V. The component is housed in a 324-ball FCBGA package with dimensions of 19.0 x 19.0 mm. It functions within an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The part is identified as End-of-Life (EOL) status.

Specialized Feature Summary

• Provides deterministic system interconnect switching for PCIe Gen2 environments
• Supports full line rate, non-blocking throughput for multiple traffic flows
• Integrates eight independent PCIe lanes and ports

Specialized Applications

• High-performance server system interconnects
• Storage area network (SAN) infrastructure
• Enterprise computing platforms requiring PCIe expansion

Specialized Procurement Notes

This component is officially designated as End-of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer. Availability is restricted, and sourcing may require verification through authorized distributors or secondary markets. Buyers should confirm current stock status and lead times directly with suppliers before ordering. Compliance with RoHS regulations should be verified against specific manufacturing dates due to potential variations in legacy production runs.

Specialized Selection Notes

Engineers selecting this part must account for its discontinued status when designing long-term production systems. Alternative solutions from the same family or newer generations should be evaluated for pin compatibility and performance requirements. Design-in support documents and ECAD models remain available for reference but do not guarantee future supply continuity. Verify package dimensions and thermal characteristics during the layout phase.

Specialized Part Context

The 89HAL808G2ZCHL8 belongs to the HAL series of PCIe switches from Renesas Electronics, formerly IDT. This series focuses on providing scalable connectivity for enterprise and industrial applications. The specific model offers a balanced configuration of eight lanes, suitable for mid-range switching needs compared to higher-density variants like the 89H16NT16G2. It represents a mature technology node within the company's interface IC portfolio.

Specialized Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not explicitly listed in the provided documentation. Users should consult Renesas official resources for recommended upgrades within the 89H or 89HT families. Cross-referencing pinouts and electrical specifications with newer generation switches is essential for direct replacement scenarios.
