It takes one CMOS input and distributes it to eight CMOS outputs at up to 80 MHz, with the internal PLL aligning the output edges to the input for zero propagation delay. This makes it a fit for clock distribution in synchronous digital systems where timing margin is tight — PCI bus, memory controllers, or networking gear that needs one clean clock tree without adding skew. ## 1:8 fanout and 80 MHz ceiling — sizing the clock tree The 1:8 input-to-output ratio means a single CY7B991-5JCT can drive up to eight loads from one clock source, reducing the number of buffers on the board. The 80 MHz maximum frequency covers most standard logic and memory interfaces — SDRAM, 10/100 Ethernet MACs, and 8- or 16-bit microcontrollers — but falls short for gigabit-class serial links or DDR3/4 clocking. If your design runs above 80 MHz, you need a different part. Supply voltage is 4.5 V to 5.5 V, so this is a 5 V nominal part. It will not run from a 3.3 V rail without a regulator. The commercial temperature range (0°C to 70°C) limits it to indoor, office, or lab environments — not for outdoor telecom cabinets or under-hood automotive. ## Package and footprint — 32-PLCC with J-leads The CY7B991-5JCT comes in a 32-lead PLCC with J-leads (bent under the body). This is a surface-mount package that can also be socketed with a PLCC socket. The J-lead footprint is less common than gull-wing (SOIC, TSSOP) — verify your PCB land pattern matches the J-lead geometry. The supplier device package is 32-PLCC (11.43x13.97 mm). ## Lifecycle and sourcing — active, no EOL watch needed The CY7B991-5JCT is listed as Active on the lifecycle record. For a BOM line, this is a low-risk part to qualify — no last-time-buy scramble, no forced redesign. The part is RoHS non-compliant, so if your assembly line is RoHS-only, factor in a leaded-process exemption or look for a halogen-free alternate.","metaTitle":"Cypress CY7B991-5JCT RoboClock PLL Clock Driver, 80 MHz","metaDescription":"Cypress CY7B991-5JCT RoboClock PLL-based fanout buffer, 80 MHz max, 1:8 ratio, 4.5-5.5V, 32-PLCC.
