MPC961CAC

Overview

The MPC961CAC is a Zero Delay Buffer integrated circuit manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It operates at a maximum frequency of 200MHz and features a single output configuration. The device is housed in a 32-lead LQFP package. It supports a maximum duty cycle of 60% and is rated for a maximum operating temperature of +70°C. The component is moisture sensitive and complies with RoHS standards.

Feature Summary

• Provides zero delay buffering to synchronize clock signals with minimal latency.
• Distributes clock signals while maintaining precise timing accuracy.
• Designed for high-frequency operation up to 200MHz.

Applications

• Clock signal synchronization in digital systems
• Timing distribution networks
• High-speed data processing interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturing date code and lot traceability upon order confirmation, as the component is moisture sensitive. Ensure proper handling procedures are followed during storage and assembly to prevent damage. Confirm that the delivered units match the exact MPC961CAC designation and package type. Request official datasheets and compliance certificates directly from the supplier or manufacturer to validate authenticity and technical specifications before integration into production.

Selection Notes

Select this component when precise clock alignment is required without introducing additional propagation delay. It is suitable for designs needing a single buffered output derived from a reference clock. Consider the 32-LQFP package constraints and thermal requirements. Verify that the system voltage levels and load conditions are compatible with the buffer's drive capabilities. Evaluate the 200MHz frequency limit against the target application's speed requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the family of clock generator and timing control devices offered by Renesas Electronics. Zero Delay Buffers are critical components in modern electronics for managing clock skew and ensuring stable timing across multiple synchronous circuits. They typically accept an input clock and generate outputs that are phase-aligned with the input, minimizing jitter and delay variations compared to standard buffers.
