What this part is and where it fits
The Renesas 7152MI-11LF is a spread spectrum clock generator in an 8-pin SOIC package. It takes a clock input and outputs a CMOS-level spread-spectrum clock to reduce peak EMI on the board — useful in systems that need to pass radiated emissions testing without adding ferrites or shielding. The internal PLL synthesises the output from the reference clock, with a multiplier but no divider on the path. Single-ended in and out, no differential signalling.
Temperature grade and deployment environment
Rated for -40°C to 85°C.
Lifecycle and sourcing posture
Listed as Active with ROHS3 compliance. No NRND flag, no last-time-buy notice — this is a current-production part that can be specified into new designs without an obsolescence risk. The 8-SOIC package is a standard footprint, widely second-sourced across the industry, though no direct pin-compatible alternate is recorded in this listing.
