9ZXL0853EKILFT

Overview

The Renesas 9ZXL0853EKILFT is a clock buffer IC designed for high-speed serial link applications. It features eight LP-HCSL outputs derived from the DB1900Z platform, supporting Gen5 PCIe specifications. The device operates with a single supply voltage ranging from 3.135V to 3.465V and accepts differential input signals. It is housed in a 48-VFQFPN package with exposed pads, suitable for surface-mount assembly. The component supports maximum input frequencies up to 400MHz and functions within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Eight low-power HCSL (LP-HCSL) outputs
• Supports Gen5 PCIe clock distribution
• Differential input configuration
• 48-VFQFPN package with exposed thermal pad

Applications

• PCIe Gen5 clock buffering
• High-performance computing systems
• Server and storage infrastructure timing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'EKILFT' against official Renesas documentation to confirm package type, tape-and-reel quantity, and RoHS compliance status. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor catalogs to ensure authenticity and traceability before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing for Gen5 PCIe interfaces requiring eight buffered clock outputs. Ensure the design accommodates the 48-VFQFPN footprint and provides adequate thermal relief for the exposed pad. Confirm that the system power supply remains within the 3.135V to 3.465V operating range.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 9ZXL series of clock buffers from Renesas Electronics. It is a derivative of the DB1900Z architecture, optimized for low-power applications in high-speed data transmission environments. The series is commonly used in modern server platforms and networking equipment requiring precise clock distribution.

Replacement Considerations

Consult the official Renesas cross-reference guide for verified alternatives. Generic substitutes may not match the specific LP-HCSL output characteristics or Gen5 performance requirements.
