9ZML1232EKILFT

Overview

The Renesas 9ZML1232EKILFT is a clock buffer within the 9ZML1232E series, designed for low-power applications. It features one input and twelve outputs, supporting a maximum frequency of 150 MHz. The device accepts HCSL input signals and provides LP-HCSL output signaling. It operates on a supply voltage ranging from 3.135 V to 3.465 V with a typical operating current of 13 mA. The component is housed in a 72-lead VFQFPN package and functions reliably across an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides 12 LP-HCSL outputs derived from a single HCSL input
• Supports maximum input and output frequencies up to 150 MHz
• Operates at low power with a typical current consumption of 13 mA
• Available in a compact 72-lead VFQFPN surface-mount package

Applications

• Clock distribution in server systems
• DB1200ZL MUX derivative circuits
• Intel QPI/UPI interface timing

Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation before integration. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling requirements during storage and assembly. Ensure the specific suffix EKILFT matches the required reel packaging quantity of 2500 units for production planning purposes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-power solution is required for distributing HCSL clocks to multiple destinations. The 150 MHz limit defines its suitability for lower-speed interfaces compared to higher-frequency derivatives. Verify that the LP-HCSL output swing is compatible with downstream receiver inputs without additional termination adjustments.

Part Context

This part belongs to the second-generation 9ZML1232E enhanced performance family. It serves as a pin-compatible upgrade to previous iterations like the 9ZML1232B, offering improved phase jitter performance while maintaining fixed external feedback configurations for critical system stability.

Replacement Considerations

The 9ZML1233E is documented as a pin-compatible upgrade within the same series, providing significantly improved phase jitter performance. Verify electrical parameter compatibility before substitution.
