8N3Q001EG-0021CDI

Overview

The Renesas 8N3Q001EG-0021CDI is a programmable clock generator and oscillator component belonging to the 8N3Q series. It functions as a high-performance timing solution designed for complex digital systems requiring precise frequency synthesis. The device integrates multiple voltage-controlled crystal oscillators (VCXOs) or oscillators within a single package, allowing for flexible configuration of output frequencies through programming interfaces. This integration reduces board space and simplifies design compared to using discrete timing components.

Feature Summary

• Programmable architecture supporting multiple output frequency configurations
• Integrated multi-channel oscillator functionality for system timing
• Surface-mount packaging suitable for automated assembly processes

Applications

• Telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• High-speed data transmission systems
• Network switching and routing hardware

Part Context

This part number belongs to the Renesas 8N3Q family of programmable clock generators. These devices are engineered to replace fixed-frequency crystals and oscillators in modern electronic designs, offering greater flexibility in meeting specific jitter and frequency requirements for serial link applications.

Replacement Considerations

Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications when considering alternative parts from the same family, such as the 8N3QV01EG series or other variants with different suffix codes. Ensure that the replacement supports the required output frequencies and operating temperature range.
