9FGV1004BQ538LTGI8

Overview

The 9FGV1004BQ538LTGI8 is a programmable clock generator from the Renesas PhiClock family, designed for high-performance timing applications. It features four differential output pairs supporting LP-HCSL and LVDS signaling standards, with maximum output frequencies reaching 325 MHz. The device operates on a supply voltage range of 1.71 V to 3.465 V and utilizes a 24-pin VFQFPN package. Key electrical specifications include a typical phase jitter of 27 ps and a maximum duty cycle distortion of 60%. It supports PCIe Gen1–4 compliance and accepts spread spectrum inputs.

Feature Summary

• Four programmable differential output pairs with LP-HCSL or LVDS signaling options
• Maximum output frequency up to 325 MHz with input frequency support up to 240 MHz
• Low phase jitter performance of 27 ps typical
• Factory-configurable OTP memory with hardware or I²C selection capabilities

Applications

• PCI Express (Gen1–Gen4) compliant systems
• High-speed data communication interfaces
• Server and storage infrastructure timing
• Network equipment clock distribution

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors as counterfeits exist in the market. Confirm the specific suffix LTGI8 indicates tape and reel packaging if required for automated assembly. Check current lifecycle status as availability may vary by region and date.

Selection Notes

Select this model when four independent differential clock outputs are required with low jitter specifications. Ensure the system design accommodates the 1.71 V to 3.465 V supply range. Verify that the 24-VFQFPN package dimensions fit the PCB layout constraints compared to alternative LGA packages in the same family.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 9FGV1004 series of programmable clock generators. It shares architectural similarities with other members like the 9FGV1004CQ501LTGI8 but differs in factory programming configurations and specific output frequency settings defined by the unique suffix code.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same family include variants such as 9FGV1004BQ500LTGI or 9FGV1004CQ501LTGI8. Verify pin compatibility and electrical parameters before substitution, as factory-programmed frequencies differ between suffixes.
