MAX24205EXG2

Overview

The MAX24205EXG2 is a clock synthesizer and jitter cleaner designed for Ethernet, SONET, and SDH applications. It features one circuit with a 2:5 input-to-output frequency ratio. The device accepts CMOS, TTL, or crystal inputs and provides CML, CMOS, or TTL outputs. It supports differential input and output configurations. The maximum operating frequency is 750MHz. Supply voltage ranges from 1.8V to 3.3V. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is housed in an 81-CSBGA (10x10) package.

Feature Summary

• Supports Ethernet, SONET, and SDH timing requirements
• Configurable 2:5 input-to-output frequency ratio
• Flexible input options including CMOS, TTL, and Crystal
• Differential input and output signal support

Applications

• Ethernet network infrastructure
• SONET/SDH transmission systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Microchip documentation to confirm package type and environmental compliance. Ensure the 81-CSBGA footprint matches the target PCB design. Confirm supply voltage requirements align with the 1.8V to 3.3V specification before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 2:5 multiplication ratio is required for high-speed serial interfaces. Verify that the system requires CML, CMOS, or TTL output levels compatible with downstream receivers. Ensure the operating environment stays within the -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX24xxx series of clock synthesizers and jitter cleaners. It is specifically optimized for telecommunications standards such as SONET and SDH. The device integrates a PLL for frequency synthesis and jitter attenuation within a compact surface-mount package.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible alternatives within the same family if availability is constrained. Verify that any substitute maintains the 2:5 ratio and 750MHz maximum frequency capability.
