CY2DP818ZC-2T

Overview

The CY2DP818ZC-2T is a low skew clock driver from the Cypress 2DP series, functioning as a fanout buffer for distribution. It features differential inputs and outputs, supporting LVDS, LVPECL, and LVTTL input levels while providing LVPECL outputs. The device operates at a maximum frequency of 350 MHz with a supply voltage range of 3.135V to 3.465V. Designed for surface mount installation, it is housed in a 38-TFSOP package (0.173 inch width) and supports an operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.

Feature Summary

• Differential input/output architecture supporting LVDS, LVPECL, and LVTTL inputs with LVPECL outputs
• Maximum operating frequency of 350 MHz
• Low skew design for precise clock distribution
• Single circuit configuration in a 38-TSSOP surface mount package

Applications

• High-speed data communication systems requiring low jitter clock distribution
• Networking equipment utilizing LVDS/LVPECL signaling standards
• Industrial control systems needing reliable clock buffering within commercial temperature ranges

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix -2T against official Cypress documentation to confirm tape-and-reel packaging specifications, as the local source lists bulk packaging. Ensure the 38-TFSOP footprint matches the target PCB layout. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel differential fanout buffer with LVPECL outputs is required for frequencies up to 350 MHz. It is suitable for designs operating between 3.135V and 3.465V. Consider the 38-pin TSSOP package constraints and the 0°C to 70°C commercial temperature range during board layout and thermal management planning.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Cypress 2DP series of low skew clock drivers. These devices are engineered for high-performance clock distribution applications where signal integrity and minimal phase noise are critical. The series typically supports multiple input logic levels to facilitate interface flexibility across different system components.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Cypress cross-reference guides for verified substitutes. Generic equivalents may not match the specific 350 MHz frequency limit or the 38-TSSOP pinout configuration.
