DATASHEET LOW SKEW 1 TO 4 CLOCK BUFFER ICS621 Description Features The ICS621 is a low skew, single input to four output, clock Low skew outputs (150 ps) buffer. The device operates from a single 1.2 to 1.8 volt Packaged in 8-pin SOIC or 8-pin DFN (2x2mm) supply and has a 3.3 volt tolerant input, making it ideal for RoHS 5 or RoHS 6 (lead-free) package level translation. Low power CMOS technology IDT makes many non-PLL and PLL based low skew output Operating voltages of 1.2 V to 1.8 V devices as well as Zero Delay Buffers to synchronize clocks.

Tri-states outputs when low. Connect to VDD for normal operation. External Components A minimum number of external components are required for proper operation. A decoupling capacitor of 0.01 F should be connected between VDD on pin 7 and GND on pin 6, as close to the device as possible. A 33 series terminating resistor may be used on each clock output if the trace is longer than 1 inch. To achieve the low output skew that the ICS621 is capable of, careful attention must be paid to board layout. Essentially, all four outputs must have identical terminations, identical loads and identical trace geometries. If they do not, the output skew will be degraded. For example, using a 30 series termination on one output (with 33 on the others) will cause at least 15 ps of skew. IDT LOW SKEW 1 TO 4 CLOCK BUFFER 2 ICS621 REV G 051310
