MK2308G-1HLF

Overview

The MK2308G-1HLF is a clock buffer manufactured by Renesas Electronics, belonging to the MK2308-1H series. It is designed as a 3.3 V zero-delay low skew buffer with eight outputs. The device supports maximum input and output frequencies of 133 MHz. It operates within a supply voltage range of 3 V to 3.6 V and draws a typical operating current of 70 mA. The component is housed in an SOIC-16 package for surface mount installation and functions reliably across a temperature range of 0°C to +70°C.

Feature Summary

• Zero-delay buffering architecture ensures minimal propagation delay between input and output signals.
• Low skew performance maintains precise timing alignment across all eight output channels.
• Supports high-speed signal distribution with a maximum frequency capability of 133 MHz.
• Compatible with standard 3.3 V logic systems using LVCMOS output formats.

Applications

• High-speed data acquisition systems requiring precise clock synchronization.
• Telecommunications infrastructure utilizing multi-channel clock distribution.
• Industrial control equipment needing reliable timing references.
• Test and measurement instruments demanding low jitter clock sources.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'G' against official Renesas documentation to confirm it denotes a valid commercial grade or packaging variant distinct from the 'H' version. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer, as availability may vary due to production lifecycle changes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-ended input must be distributed to eight separate loads with strict timing constraints. Ensure the design environment stays within the 0°C to +70°C operating range. Verify that the PCB layout accommodates the SOIC-16 footprint and that the power supply provides stable 3.3 V regulation to maintain the specified skew performance.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MK2308-1H family of clock buffers. While similar to the MK2308S-1HLF, the 'G' suffix indicates a specific commercial-grade variation. The family is characterized by its ability to drive multiple loads without introducing significant phase errors, making it suitable for complex digital systems.

Replacement Considerations

The MK2308S-1HLF serves as a direct functional substitute within the same product family. Both devices share identical electrical specifications, pinouts, and package types. Verify that the specific 'S' variant meets any additional environmental requirements if present in the original design specification.
