ICS9FG108D
Frequency Generator for CPU, QPI, FBD, PCIe Gen 2 & SATA
Description
Features/Benefits
ICS9FG108D is a Frequency Timing Generator that provides 8
differential output pairs that are compliant to the Intel CK410
specification. It also provides support for PCI-Express, next
generation I/O, and SATA. The part synthesizes several output
frequencies from either a 14.31818 MHz crystal or a 25 MHz crystal.
The device can also be driven by a reference input clock instead of
a crystal. It provides outputs with cycle-to-cycle jitter of less than 50
ps and output-to-output skew of less than 65 ps. ICS9FG108D also
provides a copy of the reference clock. Frequency selection can be
accomplished via strap pins or SMBus control.
