SY898530UTZ-TR

Clock Buffers, Drivers Overview

The SY898530UTZ-TR is a 1:16 fanout buffer manufactured by Micrel, designed for clock distribution in high-speed digital systems. It accepts various differential logic levels including LVDS, LVPECL, LVHSTL, SSTL, and HCSL, translating them to 2.5V or 3.3V LVPECL outputs. The device operates with a 3.3V core supply and a 2.5V or 3.3V output supply. Key electrical parameters include a maximum frequency of 500MHz, propagation delay under 2ns, output-to-output skew less than 50ps, and part-to-part skew under 250ps. It is housed in a 48-pin TQFP package.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify the ordering suffix 'TR' corresponds to the Tape and Reel packaging configuration as specified in the datasheet. Confirm that the component is sourced from authorized channels to ensure authenticity, as the datasheet is issued by Micrel, Inc., which may have been acquired by Microchip Technology.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1:16 fanout buffer is required with low skew performance. Ensure the system design accommodates a 3.3V core voltage and either 2.5V or 3.3V output voltage. Verify compatibility with the 48-pin TQFP package constraints and thermal requirements for the commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C).

Clock Buffers, Drivers Part Context

The SY898530U is part of Micrel's Precision Edge series of clock buffers. It is pin-to-pin compatible with IDT’s ICS8530 fanout buffer, facilitating direct replacement in existing designs. The device is available in lead-free packages with matte tin finish.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Replacement Considerations

The SY898530U is pin-to-pin compatible with IDT’s ICS8530 fanout buffer. Designers can consider the ICS8530 as a functional substitute if sourcing from IDT is preferred, provided other specifications align.
