BU2396KN-E2

Overview

The BU2396KN-E2 is a digital camera clock generator manufactured by ROHM Semiconductor. It operates within a supply voltage range of 3 V to 3.6 V and consumes 23 mA of operating current. The device features five output channels with a maximum output frequency of 36 MHz, driven by a maximum input frequency of 12 MHz. It exhibits a jitter specification of 300 ps and maintains a duty cycle of up to 55%. Designed for surface-mount installation, it is housed in a VQFN-20 package and functions reliably across an operating temperature range of -5 °C to +70 °C.
