General Description
The ICS9DB1200 is an Intel DB1200 Differential Buffer
Specification device. This buffer provides 12 differential clocks
at frequencies ranging from 100MHz to 400 MHz. The
ICS9DB1200 is driven by a differential output from a CK410B+
or CK509B main clock generator.
•
Supports undriven differential outputs in Power Down Mode
for power management.
