BCM88474CB0KFSBG

Overview

The BCM88474CB0KFSBG is a centralized Ethernet switch integrated circuit manufactured by Broadcom Limited. It provides a total switching capacity of 300 Gbps, designed for high-performance networking applications. The component utilizes a 1365-pin FCPBGA package with dimensions of 37.5x37.5 mm. It supports RoHS3 compliance and operates within standard commercial temperature ranges. The device functions as an Ethernet interface controller suitable for communication and networking IC subcategories.

Feature Summary

• Centralized switching architecture for network traffic management
• Integrated Ethernet interface controller functionality
• High-density pin count packaging for complex board layouts

Applications

• Enterprise core and distribution layer switches
• Telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Data center aggregation nodes

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current datasheet to ensure compatibility with required environmental ratings and lead times. Confirm that the 1365-pin FCPBGA footprint matches the target PCB design constraints before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 300 Gbps switching fabric is required within a centralized switch topology. Ensure the design accommodates the large 37.5x37.5 mm package size and the associated thermal dissipation requirements inherent to high-pin-count BGA devices.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Broadcom Ethernet IC product line, specifically categorized under communication and networking integrated circuits. It serves as a specialized switch controller distinct from general-purpose microcontrollers or FPGA fabrics, focusing purely on packet forwarding and switching logic.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Broadcom documentation for direct cross-references. Verify if variants within the BCM88470 series offer compatible pinouts or if architectural differences necessitate a full redesign.
