ZL30362GDG2

Overview

The ZL30362GDG2 is a high-performance clock generator and timing support device manufactured by Microchip Technology. It operates at frequencies up to 750MHz and features a single output configuration. The component is housed in a 144-pin LBGA package with dimensions of 13x13 mm, designed for robust signal integrity in demanding applications. This device supports Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and SONET/SDH standards, providing precise timing solutions for network infrastructure equipment requiring Stratum-level accuracy.

Feature Summary

• Supports Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and SONET/SDH interface standards
• Provides Stratum-level timing accuracy for network synchronization
• Operates at high frequencies up to 750MHz
• Features a single output configuration for dedicated timing needs

Applications

• Ethernet network infrastructure equipment
• Fibre Channel storage area networks
• SONET/SDH telecommunications systems
• Network synchronization nodes requiring Stratum timing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required package and temperature range. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official documentation. Ensure the LBGA-144 footprint aligns with PCB design constraints. Cross-reference the datasheet revision for any recent electrical parameter updates before finalizing procurement specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single output clock source is sufficient for the design. Consider the 750MHz maximum frequency against system requirements. Evaluate the 144-pin LBGA package size for board space limitations. Compare against multi-output alternatives if additional clock domains are necessary for complex architectures.

Part Context

This part belongs to Microchip's clock generator and timing support product family. It complements other devices like the ZL30363 series, which may offer dual outputs or different feature sets. The ZL30362GDG2 specifically targets applications needing a single high-frequency output with Stratum-grade performance for critical network timing.

Replacement Considerations

The ZL30363GDG2 is a related device offering dual outputs instead of a single output. Verify if the additional output capability is required or if the single output of the ZL30362 is sufficient. Check pinout compatibility and electrical specifications to ensure functional equivalence in the target application.
