1:2 fanout buffer for 3 GHz clock distribution
The Renesas 854S712AKILF is a 1:2 fanout buffer designed to distribute high-frequency clock or data signals with minimal additive jitter. It accepts differential input standards — CML, LVDS, or LVPECL — and outputs a clean LVDS copy on each of the two channels, making it a straightforward choice for splitting a reference clock to multiple SerDes, FPGA, or converter devices on the same board. Rated for a maximum frequency of 3 GHz, this buffer covers common reference clocks for high-speed serial links.
