Renesas Electronics Corporation Application Specific Clock/Timing ICS9169M-01T

The ICS9169-01 is a frequency generator and integrated buffer designed for high-speed RISC or CISC microprocessor systems, including Intel Pentium and Pentium Pro architectures. It generates multiple clock outputs, including four processor clocks, six bus clocks, three 14.318 MHz clocks, and one fixed 48 MHz clock, making it suitable for various applications such as ISA bus, audio, and bus bridge devices. This device features selectable frequency multiplying factors, allowing customization for specific applications, and offers a test mode for easier system design. The output clocks exhibit high drive capabilities, with BCLK outputs achieving greater than 1V/ns slew rates into 30pF loads and PCLK outputs maintaining a 50±5% duty cycle. The ICS9169-01 operates within a supply voltage range of 3.0V to 5.5V and is available in both 28-pin SOIC and SSOP packages. Engineers may find this product beneficial for projects requiring precise clock generation and synchronization in high-performance computing environments.
