PI7C9X2G308GPNJE

Overview

The PI7C9X2G308GPNJE is a PCIe Gen2 packet switch manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features eight lanes and three ports, supporting a maximum clock frequency of 100 MHz. The device operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and dissipates up to 1.3 W of power. It is housed in an LBGA-196 package designed for surface mount technology. The component is supplied in a reel format with a factory pack quantity of 1000 units.

Feature Summary

• Supports PCI Express Generation 2 interface standards
• Provides flexible routing across multiple ports and lanes
• Designed for high-density surface mount applications

Applications

• Server backplane interconnects
• Storage area network infrastructure
• Telecommunications equipment switching

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix GPNJE against official Diodes Incorporated documentation to confirm packaging and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprint designs utilizing the LBGA-196 package before procurement. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current datasheets.

Selection Notes

Select this component when an eight-lane, three-port PCIe Gen2 topology is required. Compare power dissipation ratings against system thermal constraints. Verify that the LBGA-196 package aligns with assembly capabilities and board space limitations compared to alternative QFN or BGA options.

Part Context

This part belongs to the PI7C9X2G series of PCIe packet switches from Diodes Incorporated. The series includes variants with different lane counts and port configurations, such as six-lane or twelve-lane models. These devices are engineered for scalable connectivity in data communication systems requiring efficient signal routing.

Replacement Considerations

PI7C9X2G608ELCZXAEX offers similar switching capabilities but utilizes an aQFN-136 package instead of LBGA-196. Cross-reference pinouts and thermal characteristics carefully. Other family members like PI7C9X2G304ELQZXAE provide fewer lanes and require distinct board layouts.
