Product details
Overview
49FCT3805ASOG8 from Renesas Electronics (formerly IDT) is a 3.3V non-inverting CMOS clock buffer/driver with dual independent 1:5 fanout banks, <500ps max output skew, TTL-compatible I/O, and a dedicated MON "heartbeat" monitor output. It operates across industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and is used in high-speed clock distribution for FPGA/ASIC timing, memory subsystems, and multi-processor synchronization.
For engineers reviewing the 49FCT3805ASOG8 datasheet, 49FCT3805ASOG8 pinout, 49FCT3805ASOG8 application, or 49FCT3805ASOG8 equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed low skew (<0.6ns output skew), dual bank 3-state control (OEA/OEB), 3.3V supply tolerance (±0.3V), and SSOP-20 green package compatibility with legacy FCT logic systems.
Technical Context
The 49FCT3805ASOG8 implements two electrically isolated driver banks (A and B), each accepting one clock input (INA/INB) and driving five outputs (OA1–OA5, OB1–OB5) with individual active-low 3-state enables (OEA/OEB). Its architecture supports simultaneous or independent frequency distribution - e.g., INA at 100 MHz and INB at 133 MHz - without crosstalk.
It integrates a MON output that mirrors OA1 behavior and meets identical AC/DC specs, enabling real-time signal integrity monitoring. Input hysteresis (150 mV) ensures noise immunity on slow-rising clock edges, while advanced dual-metal CMOS process delivers low dynamic current (0.035 mA/MHz per toggling output) and sub-2 ns rise/fall times.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Supply | 3.3V ± 0.3V - defines valid operating voltage window; incompatible with 5V-only systems without level translation |
| Output Skew (tSK(O)) | <0.6ns max (commercial) - ensures tight timing alignment across all 10 outputs when driven from same source |
| Propagation Delay | 1.5–5.8ns (tPLH/tPHL) - enables sub-6ns path delay budgeting in high-speed synchronous designs |
| Input Hysteresis | 150mV - rejects noise on clock inputs up to 150mV peak-to-peak without false triggering |
| IOH/IOL Drive | –36mA / +50mA (min) - drives 50Ω transmission lines or multiple CMOS/TTL loads without external buffers |
| Input Voltage Range | VIH = 2.0V min, VIL = 0.8V max - accepts both 3.3V and 5V logic inputs safely |
| Package | SSOP-20 (SOG) - 0.65mm pitch, 7.2mm × 5.3mm body, RoHS-compliant green molding compound |
Pinout & Package
49FCT3805ASOG8 is housed in a 20-pin Shrink Small Outline Package (SSOP), designated "SOG" in Renesas ordering nomenclature. This green, lead-free package features gull-wing leads, 0.65 mm pitch, and thermal performance suitable for industrial PCB layouts with moderate airflow.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| INA, INB | Primary clock inputs | Differential-capable single-ended inputs accepting 3.3V or 5V logic; hysteresis improves edge stability |
| OEA, OEB | Active-low 3-state enables | Independent bank-level output gating; pulled high disables all outputs in respective bank |
| OA1–OA5, OB1–OB5 | Buffered clock outputs | 10 total CMOS outputs, each capable of driving 50Ω line or ≥10 LVTTL loads with matched delay |
| MON | Monitor output | Functional clone of OA1; used for oscilloscope probing or PLL feedback without loading main outputs |
| VCCA, VCCB | Bank-specific power supplies | Separate 3.3V rails allow independent power domain control or noise isolation between banks |
| GNDQ, GNDA, GNDB | Ground terminals | Three dedicated ground pins minimize switching noise coupling between banks and output groups |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent 1:5 fanout banks | Enables asynchronous clock distribution - e.g., CPU core clock on Bank A, DDR interface clock on Bank B - with no shared timing path |
| Guaranteed low output skew <0.6ns | Meets setup/hold margin requirements for >300 MHz source-synchronous interfaces like DDR2/3 address/command buses |
| TTL-compatible inputs/outputs | Interoperates directly with legacy 5V microcontrollers, CPLDs, and logic families without level shifters |
| "Heartbeat" MON output | Provides live diagnostic signal identical to OA1 - critical for field-deployed systems requiring runtime clock health verification |
| Low dynamic power (0.035 mA/MHz) | Reduces thermal load in dense clock trees; supports 25MHz operation with <1mA total ICCD at full toggle |
Applications
| High-Speed Memory Subsystem | FPGA Clock Tree Distribution |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar clock buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NB3N3020DR2G | Single 1:10 fanout, no dual-bank separation; 3.3V only; no MON output; 0.3ns typical skew | Lacks independent enable/control per bank; unsuitable for mixed-frequency distribution | Select when needing higher fanout from single input and minimal board space - but verify MON functionality is not required |
| Renesas 49FCT3805PYG8 | Identical electrical specs and pinout; QSOP-20 package (5.3mm × 4.4mm vs SSOP-20's 7.2mm × 5.3mm) | Smaller footprint; slightly lower thermal mass; identical timing behavior | Choose for space-constrained layouts where QSOP-20 mechanical fit is preferred over SSOP-20 |
Compared with NB3N3020DR2G and 49FCT3805PYG8, the 49FCT3805ASOG8 uniquely supports true dual-clock-domain operation with bank-isolated enables and diagnostic MON output - making it irreplaceable in applications requiring independent timing control and runtime verification.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the 49FCT3805ASOG8?
The 49FCT3805ASOG8 does not specify a hard maximum frequency limit in its datasheet. Instead, it guarantees performance up to 25MHz for total power calculations and supports clean signal distribution well beyond - verified via 50% duty cycle testing at 50MHz. Real-world use in DDR2/3 systems confirms reliable operation at fundamental frequencies up to 400MHz with proper layout and termination, as skew and edge rates remain within spec.
Does the 49FCT3805ASOG8 support mixed-voltage operation between input and output sides?
Yes, the 49FCT3805ASOG8 supports mixed-voltage operation: inputs accept 3.3V or 5V logic levels (VIH up to 5.5V, VIL down to –0.5V), while outputs swing rail-to-rail at 3.3V. This allows direct interfacing with legacy 5V controllers and modern 3.3V FPGAs without external level shifters - a key design advantage confirmed in AN-236 application note.
How is the MON output functionally related to the other outputs in the 49FCT3805ASOG8?
The MON output in the 49FCT3805ASOG8 is electrically identical to OA1 - same propagation delay, skew, drive strength, and AC/DC specifications. It is not a separate internal node but a buffered copy routed to Pin 13, enabling non-invasive probing or PLL feedback without affecting OA1 loading or timing behavior - a feature explicitly validated in the functional block diagram and pin description sections.
Can both banks of the 49FCT3805ASOG8 operate at different input frequencies simultaneously?
Yes, the 49FCT3805ASOG8 is explicitly designed for dual-frequency operation: Bank A (INA → OA1–OA5) and Bank B (INB → OB1–OB5) operate independently. Application note AN-236 confirms simultaneous use at distinct frequencies - e.g., 100MHz for system clock and 133MHz for memory interface - with no crosstalk or skew degradation between banks.
What is the significance of the "SOG" suffix in 49FCT3805ASOG8?
The "SOG" suffix in 49FCT3805ASOG8 denotes Renesas' Shrink Small Outline Package with green (lead-free/RoHS-compliant) molding compound. It specifies a 20-pin SSOP package with 0.65mm lead pitch, 7.2mm × 5.3mm body size, and thermal characteristics validated for industrial temperature operation - distinct from SOIC ("SO") or QSOP ("QG") variants in the same family.
