GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The XRK32308–2 allows the user to obtain 1X, and
XRK32308 is a 3.3V Zero Delay Buffer designed to 2X or X/2 depending on which Bank sources the FB

datacom, telecom, and other high-performance
applications.
The XRK32308–3 allows the user to obtain 4X and
2X frequencies or 1X and 2X.
The part has an on-chip PLL which locks to an input
The XRK32308–4 enables the user to obtain 2X

obtained from one of the outputs. The input-to-output
skew is guaranteed to be less than 350 ps, and
output-to-output skew is guaranteed to be less than
200 ps.
FEATURES
• Zero input-output propagation delay, adjustable by
XRK32308 has two banks of four outputs each.
These can be controlled by the Select inputs as
shown in Table 2, “Select Input Decoding,” on page 2.
If all output clocks are not required, Bank B can be
three-stated. The select inputs also allow the input
clock to be directly applied to the output for chip and
system testing purposes.
capacitive load on FB input
• Multiple configurations, see “Available XRK32308
Configurations” table
• Multiple low-skew outputs
• Two banks of four outputs, three-stateable by two
select inputs
Multiple XRK32308 devices can accept the same
input clock and distribute it in a system. In this case,
the skew between the outputs of two devices is
guaranteed to be less than 700 ps.
• 10-MHz to 120-MHz operating range
• 75ps typical cycle-to-cycle jitter (15pF, 66MHz)
• Space-saving 16-pin 150-mil SOIC package, 16-pin
TSSOP or 16-pin QFN
XRK32308 devices are available in five different
configurations, as shown in Table 3, “Available
XRK32308 Configurations,” on page 3.
• 3.3V operation
• Industrial and commercial temperature available
The XRK32308–1 is the base part, where the output
frequencies equal the reference if there is no counter
in the feedback path.
