It accepts either a crystal or LVCMOS input and distributes 100MHz clocks with individual output enable control.","working_principle":"The PI6C557-03ALEX takes a 25MHz crystal input (or 100MHz LVCMOS) and generates five 100MHz differential HCSL (High-Speed Current Steering Logic) output pairs. HCSL is the standard PCIe clock format. The internal PLL multiplies the 25MHz crystal to 100MHz, while the output buffers provide low-jitter (0.7ps RMS) distribution. Each output pair can be individually enabled or disabled via control pins. The device supports spread-spectrum clocking (SSC) from the input for EMI reduction.","pin_description":"<table><tr><th>Pin<\/th><th>Name<\/th><th>Type<\/th><th>Function<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>1<\/td><td>VDD<\/td><td>Power<\/td><td>3.3V supply<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2<\/td><td>XTAL_IN<\/td><td>Input<\/td><td>Crystal input (25MHz)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>3<\/td><td>XTAL_OUT<\/td><td>Output<\/td><td>Crystal output<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>4<\/td><td>DIF_IN<\/td><td>Input<\/td><td>Differential clock input (optional)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>5-8<\/td><td>DIF_0+\/0-\/1+\/1-<\/td><td>Output<\/td><td>Differential HCSL outputs 0-1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>9-12<\/td><td>DIF_2+\/2-\/3+\/3-<\/td><td>Output<\/td><td>Differential HCSL outputs 2-3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>13-14<\/td><td>DIF_4+\/4-<\/td><td>Output<\/td><td>Differential HCSL output 4<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>15-20<\/td><td>OE0-OE4<\/td><td>Input<\/td><td>Output enable controls<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>21-28<\/td><td>CTRL\/GND\/VDD<\/td><td>Mixed<\/td><td>Control and power pins<\/td><\/tr><\/table>","application_scenarios":"<ul><li>Server motherboard PCIe slot clock distribution<\/li><li>Workstation PCIe Gen 3 five-slot clock tree<\/li><li>Networking switch ASIC PCIe clocking<\/li><li>Storage controller PCIe clock buffer<\/li><li>Embedded system multi-port PCIe clock<\/li><\/ul>","alternative_models":"<table><tr><th>Manufacturer<\/th><th>Part Number<\/th><th>Package<\/th><th>Notes<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>TI<\/td><td>DB1900ARQZ<\/td><td>QFN-32<\/td><td>PCIe Gen 4 clock<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Renesas<\/td><td>9DBV0431AKILF<\/td><td>TSSOP-28<\/td><td>4-output PCIe buffer<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Microchip<\/td><td>5P49V5935B729NLGI8<\/td><td>QFN-32<\/td><td>Programmable clock gen<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Silicon Labs<\/td><td>SI52112-A1-GM2<\/td><td>QFN-24<\/td><td>4-output PCIe buffer<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>IDT\/Renesas<\/td><td>9FGV0241AKILF<\/td><td>TSSOP-24<\/td><td>4-output PCIe Gen 3<\/td><\/tr><\/table>"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9997","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9997"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9997\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9997"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9997"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9997"},{"taxonomy":"chip_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chip_brand?post=9997"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
