What this part is and where it fits
The Cypress CY2SSTV857ZC-27T is a PLL-based zero delay buffer in the SSTV series, designed to regenerate and distribute a reference clock with near-zero propagation delay between input and output. It accepts a differential clock input and delivers ten differential clock outputs, all running at up to 200 MHz. The 1:10 fanout ratio means a single device can feed ten DDR memory or logic loads without needing a second buffer stage, which simplifies the clock tree on a memory-intensive board.
Supply and signal levels — what they mean for the BOM
The supply range is 2.38 V to 2.63 V. The differential input and output paths (Yes/Yes per the spec) mean this part is meant for LVDS or HCSL-style signaling, not single-ended CMOS clocks.
Lifecycle and sourcing posture
Listed as Active in production status. No end-of-life notice or last-time-buy window is recorded for this order code. The RoHS compliance status is noted as non-compliant, so verify your assembly house's exemption policy if the board must meet full RoHS requirements — this part may contain lead in the solder finish or die-attach, which is common for certain high-reliability or legacy-compatible components.
