Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix HB0 against official Renesas documentation to confirm exact factory configuration or testing requirements. Ensure the 72-VFQFPN (10x10) package dimensions align with PCB layout constraints. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the manufacturer's current datasheet before finalizing procurement specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring precise clock distribution for Ethernet or SONET/SDH protocols. The 5:12 ratio allows flexible frequency translation from fewer input references to multiple output domains. Ensure the design accommodates the specified 1.71 V to 3.465 V supply range and thermal management for the -40°C to +85°C operating environment.

Part Context
