IDTCV183-2BPAG8

Overview

The IDTCV183-2BPAG8 is a programmable clock generator from the FlexPC™ series, manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. Designed for PCI Express (PCIe) and SATA CPU applications, this single-circuit device operates with a crystal input and provides up to 23 differential or single-ended clock outputs. It supports frequencies up to 400MHz using an internal PLL. The component functions within a supply voltage range of 3.135V to 3.465V and is rated for commercial temperatures between 0°C and 70°C. It is housed in a 64-TSSOP surface-mount package.

Feature Summary

• Integrated Phase-Lock Loop (PLL) for precise frequency synthesis
• Supports 1:23 input-to-output ratio for high-channel count distribution
• Configurable for both differential and single-ended output configurations
• Optimized for PCIe and SATA system timing requirements

Applications

• PCI Express (PCIe) host bridge clock generation
• SATA controller interface timing
• CPU subsystem clock distribution

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'B' against official Renesas documentation to confirm pinout compatibility and electrical characteristics relative to other variants like the 'A' series. Confirm current availability status as clock generators may be subject to lifecycle changes. Ensure the 64-TSSOP footprint matches the target PCB design constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single IC must drive multiple clock domains for PCIe or SATA interfaces. The 400MHz maximum frequency and 1:23 ratio support complex system architectures. Verify that the 3.135V–3.465V supply voltage aligns with the system's power rails and that the 0°C to 70°C operating range meets environmental specifications.

Part Context

This part belongs to the FlexPC™ family of programmable clock generators. These devices are engineered to replace fixed-frequency oscillators and multiple discrete buffers, reducing board space and BOM complexity in high-speed digital systems requiring synchronized multi-clock networks.

Replacement Considerations

Consult Renesas datasheets for direct cross-references. Variants such as IDTCV183-2APAG8 share similar core specifications but may differ in packaging or revision status. Verify functional equivalence before substitution.
