Industry's lowest power 3.3V PCIe clock generators

Mouser has announced it is shipping IDT's 9FGL PCIe Clock Generators. The 9FGL range of clock generators are members of IDT's 3.3V low-power PCIe series and are said to support Common Clock with or without spread spectrum and Separate Reference no-Spread PCIe clocking architectures.

Operating at 120mW and 130mW power consumption respectively, the 9FGL06 and 9FGL08 generators are said to be the lowest power 3.3V PCIe clock generators available.

These devices generate low-power HCSL differential clock outputs in either six-output (9FGL06) or eight-output (9FGL08) forms. Direct connections to transmission lines and 40-pin, 5 x 5mm (9DFGL06) or 48-pin, 6 x 6mm (9FGL08) VFQFPN packages reduce required board space.

Applications for the 9FGL family include computing systems, networking systems, industrial applications, and data-communications applications.
