PL135-47OC-R

Clock Buffers, Drivers Overview

The PL135-47OC-R is a low-power oscillator fanout buffer manufactured by Micrel, now part of Microchip Technology. It accepts a fundamental crystal input between 10MHz and 40MHz and provides four LVCMOS outputs with individual output enable control. The device operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 1.62V to 3.63V. It features an 8mA output drive strength and is designed for applications requiring very low jitter and phase noise. The component is housed in a TSSOP-16L package and is supplied in tape and reel format.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Feature Summary

• Four LVCMOS outputs with independent Output Enable (OE) pins
• Supports fundamental crystal inputs from 10MHz to 40MHz
• Operates on a single 1.62V to 3.63V power supply
• 8mA output drive strength with low current consumption

Clock Buffers, Drivers Applications

• High-performance, low-power embedded systems
• Small form-factor electronic devices
• Clock distribution networks requiring low jitter

Clock Buffers, Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify the suffix 'R' indicates Tape and Reel packaging rather than tubes. Confirm the 'OC' designation corresponds to the TSSOP-16L package type as specified in the ordering information. Ensure compatibility with the commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C if operating outside this range.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1:4 fanout buffer is required for fundamental crystals within the 10MHz to 40MHz range. It is suitable for designs needing individual output gating via OE pins. Consider the TSSOP-16L package constraints and the specific power supply requirements between 1.62V and 3.63V during PCB layout.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Part Context

This part belongs to the PL135-47 series of oscillator fanout buffers. The 'OC' suffix identifies the TSSOP-16L package variant, while the '-R' suffix denotes the tape and reel shipping option. The device was originally produced by Micrel Inc., which has since been acquired by Microchip Technology.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Replacement Considerations

Check for other variants in the PL135-47 family, such as the QFN-16L package version (PL135-47QC-R), if footprint changes are permissible. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility before substituting with other fanout buffers.
