ICS8634BY-01LF

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ICS8344 is a low voltage, low skew fanout buffer and a member of the HiPerClockS™ family of High Performance Clock Solutions from ICS. The ICS8344 is designed to translate any differential signal levels to LVCMOS levels. The low impedance LVCMOS outputs are designed to drive 50Ω series or parallel terminated transmission lines. The effective fanout can be increased to 48 by utilizing the ability of the outputs to drive two series terminated lines. Redundant clock applications can make use of the dual clock input. The dual clock inputs also facilitate board level testing. ICS8344 is characterized at full 3.3V, full 2.5V and mixed 3.3V input and 2.5V output operating supply modes.
