Frequency Gearing Clock for CPU, PCIe Gen1, Gen2
& FBD
ICS9FG1200D-1
Description
Features/Benefits
ICS9FG1200D-1 follows the Intel DB1200GS Differential Buffer
Specification. This buffer provides 12 output clocks for CPU Host
Bus, PCIe Gen2, or Fully Buffered DIMM applications.The outputs
are configured with two groups. Both groups (DIF 9:0) and (DIF
11:10) can be equal to or have a gear ratio to the input clock. A
differential CPU clock from a CK410B+ main clock generator,
such as the ICS932S421, drives the ICS9FG1200D-1. The
ICS9FG1200D-1 can provide outputs up to 400MHz.
•

•
Drives 2 channels of 4 FBDIMMs (total of 8 FBDIMMs)
Power up default is all outputs in 1:1 mode
DIF_(9:0) can be “gear-shifted” from the input CPU Host

•
Spread spectrum compatible
Supports output clock frequencies up to 400 MHz
8 Selectable SMBus addresses
SMBus address determines PLL or Bypass mode
