RC19016AGN1#KB0

Overview

The RC19016AGN1#KB0 is a PCIe Gen7 clock buffer manufactured by Renesas Electronics. It features one differential input and sixteen LP-HCSL differential outputs, providing a 1:16 fanout ratio. The device supports input frequencies up to 400 MHz with supply voltages ranging from 2.97V to 3.63V. It operates within an ambient temperature range of -40°C to +105°C and is housed in a 64-VFQFPN package measuring 9x9 mm.

Feature Summary

• PCIe Gen7 compliant with backward compatibility for earlier generations
• Ultra-low additive jitter and reduced in-to-out delay performance
• Supports selectable 85Ω output impedance
• Includes open-drain LOS indication and SMBus interface

Applications

• PCI Express infrastructure systems
• High-performance computing platforms
• Server and storage controller timing networks

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix #KB0 against official documentation to confirm packaging details, as suffixes often denote reel versus tray configurations. Ensure the component meets RoHS requirements and check moisture sensitivity levels prior to surface mount assembly processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single differential input must drive sixteen LP-HCSL loads with minimal jitter degradation. Confirm that the system requires 85Ω output impedance and operates within the specified 2.97V to 3.63V voltage range. Verify thermal management capabilities for the 64-VFQFPN package under maximum load conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the RC190xxA family of PCIe Gen7 clock buffers. It shares architectural similarities with other members like the RC19008 and RC19020 but offers a specific 16-output configuration. The series is designed to reduce terminated resistors and simplify board layout for high-speed serial interfaces.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same family include the RC19016AGN1#BD0. Other output count variants such as the RC19008 (8-output) or RC19020 (20-output) may require schematic modifications.
