CY2DM1502ZXCT

Overview

The CY2DM1502ZXCT is a high-performance fanout buffer manufactured by Infineon Technologies, designed for clock distribution applications. It operates with a 1:2 input-to-output ratio and supports differential CML or LVPECL inputs to generate differential CML outputs. The device functions within a supply voltage range of 2.375V to 3.465V and supports signal frequencies up to 1.5 GHz. It is housed in an 8-TSSOP package (0.173 inch width) and is rated for operation between 0°C and 70°C.

Feature Summary

• Supports differential CML and LVPECL input signals
• Generates differential CML output signals
• Operates at frequencies up to 1.5 GHz
• Supply voltage range of 2.375V to 3.465V

Applications

• High-speed clock distribution networks
• Data communication equipment requiring low-jitter buffering
• Server and storage system clock trees

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'ZCT' against official Infineon documentation to confirm tape and reel packaging details. Ensure compatibility with the 8-TSSOP footprint dimensions (4.40mm width) during PCB layout. Confirm that the operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C meets the environmental requirements of the target application.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1:2 fanout buffer is required for CML or LVPECL sources driving CML loads. Verify that the power supply can maintain the 2.375V to 3.465V range under all load conditions. Consider the 8-TSSOP package constraints if space is limited, and ensure the design accommodates the specified 0°C to 70°C operating temperature window.

Part Context

This part belongs to the category of clock buffers and drivers from Infineon Technologies. It serves as a distribution element within larger clock tree architectures, converting or replicating high-frequency differential signals. The 8-TSSOP package allows for surface-mount integration into compact electronic assemblies.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible alternatives within the Infineon CY2D series that offer similar 1.5 GHz performance and 8-TSSOP packaging. Verify electrical parameters such as supply voltage and input/output logic levels before substitution.
