Differential Clock Buffers from Diodes Incorporated Meet Demand for Higher Design Margin in Terabit Communications
June 26 2019 - 10:00AM
Business Wire
Diodes Incorporated (Nasdaq: DIOD) today announced the
PI6C59xxxxx series of differential clock buffers. The series
supports Ethernet speeds up to 400Gbit/s and are well-suited for
high-performance applications such as data centers and 5G
basestations.
The demand for network speeds operating from 25Gbit/s up to
400Gbit/s (known as the Terabit Ethernet, or TbE) is increasing,
putting designers of switches and routers under pressure to
maintain signal integrity in more challenging environments. The
PI6C59xxxxx series of differential clock buffers provides better
signal margin while expanding the drive capability of all clock and
data signals used in high-speed communications. It covers a wide
number of speeds and technologies, as well as combinations of input
and output configurations.
The devices in the PI6C59xxxxx series have been designed to
increase the fanout of clock sources and improve clock and/or data
distribution in communication applications operating between 1.5GHz
and 6GHz. This covers 25G, 40G, 56G, 100G, and 400GbE, as demanded
by a wide variety of applications where low jitter and fast
rise/fall times are required. The ultra-low additive jitter of the
devices is around 10fs, to deliver improved jitter margins to
maintain overall accuracy. All devices are available in the TQFN
package outline, and provide good thermal conductivity in a small
footprint. This is increasingly important for data center and
basestation applications, where suppliers need increased power
density, performance, bandwidth, and functionality.
With 13 variants in the PI6C59xxxxx series, it covers all of the
main signaling technologies used in high-speed networking,
including CML (current mode logic), LVDS (low voltage differential
signaling), LVPECL (low voltage positive emitter coupled logic) and
SSTL (stub series terminated logic), as well as LVCMOS.
Configurations include 2, 4, 12, and 16-output for fanout buffers
and data/clock buffers.
The PI6C59xxxxx series is supplied in the TQFN package with pin
counts from 16 to 48. Further information is available at
