1:12 LVDS fanout buffer for 2 GHz clock trees
The Renesas 8SLVD1212ANLGI is a 1:12 fanout buffer that distributes a single differential clock input to twelve LVDS outputs, rated for frequencies up to 2 GHz. It accepts CML, LVDS, or LVPECL input levels, making it protocol-agnostic at the clock source. The part operates from a 2.375 V to 2.625 V supply and is specified over the industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. Housed in a 40-VFQFPN exposed-pad package (6x6 mm), it suits dense timing boards in telecom infrastructure, data centres, and test equipment where low-jitter clock distribution is required.
2 GHz ceiling and 1:12 fanout — what they mean for the clock tree
The 2 GHz maximum frequency covers high-speed serial interfaces. The 1:12 fanout ratio lets a single oscillator feed twelve downstream receivers.
Active lifecycle, no obsolescence concern
The 8SLVD1212ANLGI carries an active lifecycle status from Renesas. For BOM-freeze planning, this part is qualified for ongoing production and new designs without a near-term end-of-life risk. ROHS3 compliant.
