9FGL0841CKILFT - 8-Output PCIe Gen 1-5 Clock Generator | Renesas
MPN: 9FGL0841CKILFT ✗ סוף ייצור9FGL0841CKILFT סקירה
A PCIe clock generator is a specialized application-specific clock/timing IC that produces the low-jitter 100 MHz HCSL reference clocks required by PCIe PHY layers. Within the broader clock/timing taxonomy, it sits below general-purpose PLLs and frequency synthesizers but above simple clock buffers, providing spread-spectrum clocking (SSC), per-output enable, and PCIe-compliant jitter and skew budgets in a single device. The 9FGL0841/0851 family supports both Common Clocked (CC) and Separate Reference Independent (SRIS/SRNS) PCIe architectures, with two selectable SSC percentages and SSC-off operation.
Key features include 100 MHz HCSL differential outputs, an input that accepts an external reference clock or fundamental-mode crystal, programmable spread spectrum (typically 0% / -0.25% / -0.5%), SMBus-compatible configuration, and per-output OE# pins. The device operates from a single 3.3 V supply and provides low additive jitter suitable for PCIe Gen 5 compliance. The 48-VFQFPN exposed-pad package delivers low thermal resistance for reliable operation in densely populated PCIe riser cards.
Typical applications include servers, high-performance computing (HPC) nodes, NVMe storage arrays, networking switches, workstation motherboards, and PCIe expansion cards. The 8-output count suits multi-host and PCIe-switch fabrics where multiple endpoints require independent clock gating for power savings.
When designing with this part, pay close attention to the differential trace length matching of the HCSL outputs, the bypass network on VDD, and the SMBus address selection pins. Note that Renesas product pages now describe this device family as supporting PCIe Gen 1-6, while the legacy IDT-branded datasheet (2019) covers Gen 1-4.

יישומים טיפוסיים
9FGL0841CKILFT מתאים עבור 6 יישוםs: PCIe Server Motherboards, NVMe Storage Arrays, Networking Switches and Routers, Workstation Motherboards, PCIe Expansion and Riser Cards, High-Performance Computing (HPC) Nodes.
PCIe Server Motherboards
The Renesas 9FGL0841CKILFT is well-suited for PCIe server motherboards requiring 8 low-jitter 100 MHz HCSL reference clocks with per-output OE# gating. Its 3.3 V single-supply operation simplifies the platform power tree, while the dedicated CLKREQ# support enables per-lane power gating for ENERGY STAR and ASHRAE-compliant thermal envelopes. The 48-VFQFPN 6x6 mm footprint with exposed pad provides low thermal resistance for dense server PCB layouts.
מומלץ
NVMe Storage Arrays
NVMe storage arrays benefit from the 9FGL0841CKILFT's 8-output count and PCIe CLKREQ# support, which let each drive bay gate its reference clock independently. The 100 MHz HCSL outputs meet PCIe Gen 4/5 jitter budgets required by high-performance NVMe controllers, while programmable spread spectrum reduces EMI in dense 24+ drive chassis. Single 3.3 V supply matches typical storage backplane power rails.
מומלץ
Networking Switches and Routers
Networking switches and routers use the 9FGL0841CKILFT to distribute 8 synchronized 100 MHz PCIe reference clocks across switch ASICs and PHY channels. The dedicated OE# pins map directly to PCIe CLKREQ# for per-port clock gating during low-traffic states, reducing system power. Programmable spread spectrum (-0.25% or -0.5%) helps meet FCC/CE EMI requirements in dense multi-port chassis without additional shielding.
מומלץ
Workstation Motherboards
High-end workstation motherboards leverage the 9FGL0841CKILFT to deliver reference clocks to multi-GPU PCIe slots, NVMe M.2 sockets, and PCIe expansion cards. The 8-output capacity suits x16 CPU-attached slots split into multiple endpoints, while per-output OE# enables fine-grained power management for workloads that don't continuously use every slot. The 48-VFQFPN footprint simplifies routing in 8-layer PCBs.
מומלץ
PCIe Expansion and Riser Cards
PCIe riser cards and backplanes use the 9FGL0841CKILFT to redistribute reference clocks across multiple slots when a single upstream clock cannot drive all endpoints. The HCSL output drive strength is designed for up to 8 downstream devices on shared PCB traces. Spread spectrum programmability and per-output OE# allow the riser to manage EMI and power per slot in dense server chassis.
מומלץ
High-Performance Computing (HPC) Nodes
HPC compute nodes integrate the 9FGL0841CKILFT to provide clean 100 MHz HCSL reference clocks to multi-CPU PCIe fabrics and accelerator links. The 8 outputs allow partitioning the node across CPU-to-CPU, CPU-to-GPU, and CPU-to-NIC lanes, while the programmable spread spectrum reduces EMI emissions that could interfere with sensitive instrumentation. SMBus programmability supports in-system tuning for different compute workloads.

הערות תכנון
Route the HCSL differential pairs with 100 ohm differential impedance and match the P/N lengths to within 5 mils to preserve duty cycle and minimize common-mode conversion. Place 33 ohm series-damping resistors near the driver pins per the IDT/Renesas reference design. Decouple each VDD pin with a 0.1 uF ceramic capacitor located within 100 mils, plus a 1 uF bulk capacitor at the device supply island.
Solder the central exposed pad of the 48-VFQFPN package to a ground copper pour with at least 8 thermal vias to the inner ground plane. Although the 9FGL0841CKILFT draws modest current (estimated 80-120 mA per output pair at 100 MHz HCSL), the exposed pad provides the primary heat-dissipation path and must not be left floating or the junction temperature will rise above rated limits during continuous operation.
Do not leave the SMBus address select pins SA0/SA1 floating; tie them to VDD or GND through 10 kohm resistors to set a unique address when multiple clock generators share the bus. Verify that OE# polarity is correct for your platform - PCIe CLKREQ# is active-low, matching the OE# pin polarity. When using external reference mode instead of a crystal, drive XIN with a CMOS-level source and leave XOUT floating.
Use the device's programmable spread-spectrum feature to reduce EMI emissions on multi-output boards. Two SSC levels (typically -0.25% and -0.5%) are available plus SSC-off; verify PCIe compliance at the chosen level because some PCIe Gen 5 receiver compliance tests require SSC-off. Check the IDT/Renesas reference design for trace-length guidelines on shared PCIe reference-clock topologies to avoid excessive ISI.
