PI6C5912012ZDIEX

Clock Buffers, Drivers Overview

The PI6C5912012ZDIEX is a high-performance LVPECL fanout buffer manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It provides 12 differential LVPECL outputs and supports clock frequencies up to 2GHz. The device features ultra-low additive phase jitter, typically less than 0.01 ps at 156.25MHz with a 12kHz to 20MHz integration range. It includes two selectable reference inputs that accept either single-ended or differential signals. Power supply options include separate VDD and VDDO pins supporting 2.5V or 3.3V levels for level shifting capabilities. The component operates within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C and is housed in a 40-pin TQFN package.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Feature Summary

• 12 Differential LVPECL outputs supporting up to 2GHz frequency
• Ultra-low additive phase jitter: < 0.01 ps (typ) at 156.25MHz
• Two selectable reference inputs (REF_IN0/REF_IN1) for single-ended or differential signals
• Separate Input (VDD) and Output (VDDO) supply voltages for level shifting

Clock Buffers, Drivers Applications

• Networking systems including switches and routers
• High frequency backplane based computing platforms
• Telecom platforms requiring low jitter clock distribution

Clock Buffers, Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify the ordering suffix ZDIEX corresponds to the 40-contact Thin Fine Pitch Quad Flat No-Lead (TQFN) package with an operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. Confirm RoHS compliance status as per manufacturer definitions for lead-free and green products. Ensure power supply decoupling utilizes 0.1µF and 1µF bypass capacitors for each pin to achieve optimum jitter performance.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Selection Notes

Select this component when distributing low jitter LVPECL clock signals to multiple destinations in high-speed systems. It is suitable for applications requiring up to 2GHz output frequency and separate input/output voltage domains. Ensure the design accommodates the 40-TQFN package thermal requirements and provides adequate power supply isolation to maintain the specified < 0.01 ps additive jitter performance.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Part Context

The PI6C5912012 belongs to the 6C series of logic devices from Diodes Incorporated. It functions as a PLL-based clock driver designed for high-frequency clock distribution. The specific ZDIEX variant denotes the tape and reel packaging format for the 40-pin TQFN enclosure, distinguishing it from other package options within the same functional family.
