ICS953201BFT

Overview

The ICS953201BFT is a Timing Control Hub (TCH) system clock generator manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. Designed for PCI Express applications, this integrated circuit operates on a single 3.3V supply voltage and features no internal Phase-Locked Loop (PLL). It provides clock outputs in a 56-BSSOP surface-mount package with a width of 7.50mm. The device is rated for an industrial operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.

Feature Summary

• Timing Control Hub (TCH) architecture optimized for PCI Express systems
• Single 3.3V power supply operation
• No internal PLL required
• 56-lead BSSOP surface-mount package

Applications

• PCI Express timing control hubs
• System clock generation for AMD-K8 platforms
• PC motherboard clock distribution

Part Context

This component belongs to the TCH™ series from Renesas Electronics. It serves as a dedicated clock controller for high-speed interface standards, specifically targeting PCI Express implementations where precise timing synchronization is critical for data integrity across the bus.

Replacement Considerations

Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications against current available alternatives. Check for package dimension consistency with the 56-BSSOP form factor. Ensure the replacement supports the same 3.3V logic levels and PCIe timing requirements.
