Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix NBGI8 against the official datasheet to confirm package type and tape/reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with system power supply rails of 1.8V, 2.5V, or 3.3V. Confirm that the factory-programmed configuration matches the design requirements, as this is a fixed-configuration variant.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single differential or single-ended output is required for PCIe or Ethernet interfaces. Compare against other PhiClock models based on the specific output voltage swing and load capacitance requirements. Verify that the 1:6 ratio capability aligns with the system's clock distribution needs.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Renesas PhiClock family of programmable clock generators. The 9FGV1002 series is optimized for high-performance computing and communication applications requiring low jitter and flexible output configurations. It serves as a replacement for legacy clock buffer and generator ICs in modern serial link designs.

Replacement Considerations

Check pin-to-pin compatibility with existing clock buffers if upgrading from older generations. Verify that the output drive strength and termination requirements match the PCB trace design. Ensure the I²C address settings do not conflict with other devices on the bus.
