PI6C10804WEX

Clock Buffers, Drivers Overview

The PI6C10804WEX is a high-speed, low-noise, non-inverting 1:4 clock buffer manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.5V to 2.5V and supports maximum input frequencies up to 200 MHz at 1.5V and 180 MHz at 1.8V/2.5V. The device features optimized duty cycle preservation and low output skew, specified as less than 70ps at 1.8V/2.5V and less than 100ps at 1.5V. Propagation delay is typically under 3.0ns for 1.8V/2.5V operation and under 3.5ns at 1.5V. It includes an Output Enable (OE) pin and accepts 3.3V tolerant inputs. The component is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (W) package.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify the ordering suffix 'WE' corresponds to Pb-free and Green status, and 'X' indicates Tape/Reel packaging. Confirm the package type is 8-pin SOIC (W). Ensure the supplier provides documentation from Diodes Incorporated or authorized distributors to validate authenticity and specific lot traceability.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-ended clock signal needs to be distributed to four synchronous loads with minimal skew. Ensure the system operating voltage falls within the 1.5V to 2.5V range. Verify that the input clock source is compatible with the 3.3V tolerant input logic levels if driven by higher voltage sources.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Part Context

The PI6C10804 is part of Diodes Incorporated's family of high-performance clock buffers designed for networking applications. The 'W' suffix denotes the 8-pin wide SOIC package, while 'E' indicates Pb-free and Green manufacturing compliance. The 'X' suffix specifies tape and reel packaging for automated assembly.
