Product details
Overview
The 552-02SPGGI8 from Renesas Electronics is a low-skew, dual-input clock multiplexer and 1-to-8 fanout buffer designed for high-precision timing distribution in synchronous digital systems. It supports up to 200 MHz input/output frequency, delivers sub-50 fs RMS additive phase jitter (typical), and achieves ≤65 ps output-to-output skew with 1.8–3.3 V supply operation across –40°C to +105°C.
For engineers reviewing the 552-02SPGGI8 datasheet, 552-02SPGGI8 pinout, 552-02SPGGI8 application, or 552-02SPGGI8 equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-clock source select via SELA, OE-controlled output tri-state capability, 3.3 V tolerant inputs, and support for TSSOP-16 packaging with extended temperature range.
Technical Context
The 552-02SPGGI8 integrates a 2:1 input multiplexer feeding an 8-output low-skew buffer without PLL circuitry-making it a pure fanout device optimized for jitter minimization rather than frequency synthesis. Its architecture uses CMOS-based clock distribution with internal pull-up resistors on OE and SELA pins, enabling simple control without external biasing.
It operates across three voltage rails (1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V) with rail-to-rail input compatibility and 3.3 V tolerant clock inputs (INA/INB). Output drive strength scales with VDD: 10 mA at 1.8 V, 16 mA at 2.5 V, and 25 mA at 3.3 V, supporting matched termination for skew-critical layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Additive Phase Jitter | 50 fs RMS (125 MHz, 12 kHz–20 MHz integration) - enables ultra-low jitter clock tree extension in SerDes and high-speed ADC/DAC systems |
| Output-to-Output Skew | ≤65 ps (rising edges at VDD/2, equal loading) - ensures deterministic timing alignment across all eight outputs |
| Max Input/Output Frequency | 200 MHz - supports PCIe Gen2, DDR2/3 memory clocks, and Gigabit Ethernet reference timing |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.71–3.465 V - compatible with 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V logic domains without level shifters |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +105°C - qualified for industrial and automotive under-hood applications |
| Input Tolerance | 3.3 V tolerant INA/INB - allows interfacing with higher-voltage clock sources while powered at 1.8 V |
| Propagation Delay | 2.0–3.5 ns (135 MHz) - provides predictable, low-latency clock forwarding with minimal delay variation |
Pinout & Package
552-02SPGGI8 is packaged in a 16-pin TSSOP (PGG) with 0.65 mm pitch, 4.4 mm body width, and RoHS-compliant Pb-free finish. Pin layout supports compact PCB routing and thermal performance suitable for high-density timing modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OE (Pin 1) | Active-Low Output Enable | Tri-states all eight Q0–Q7 outputs when low; internal pull-up eliminates need for external resistor |
| VDD (Pins 2, 15) | Power Supply | Dual VDD pins reduce supply impedance and improve PSRR; must be tied to same voltage rail |
| Q0–Q7 (Pins 3–6, 11–14) | Clock Outputs | Eight identical CMOS outputs with matched drive strength and edge rates for skew-sensitive fanout |
| GND (Pins 7, 10) | Ground Reference | Dual ground pins minimize return path inductance and suppress ground bounce across outputs |
| INA / INB (Pins 9, 8) | Primary/Secondary Clock Inputs | 3.3 V tolerant differential-capable inputs; selected by SELA; rail-to-rail compatible |
| SELA (Pin 16) | Mux Select Control | High = INA active, Low = INB active; internal pull-up enables default INA selection on power-up |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RMS Additive Phase Jitter | 50 fs typical - preserves signal integrity in jitter-sensitive interfaces like JESD204B and CPRI |
| Output Enable with Internal Pull-up | OE pin tri-states all outputs without external components - simplifies power sequencing and dynamic clock gating |
| Dual-Voltage Compatible I/O | 3.3 V tolerant inputs + 1.8–3.3 V supply - enables mixed-voltage system integration without translators |
| Matched Output Drive & Timing | Identical rise/fall times (≤1.0 ns @ 3.3 V) and propagation delay matching - essential for synchronous multi-lane data capture |
| Extended Temperature Operation | –40°C to +105°C ambient - validated for industrial automation controllers and base station timing modules |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar clock buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ICS552-02TGI | Same function and pinout; offered by IDT (now part of Renesas); identical AC/DC specs but older revision with higher min jitter (65 fs typ) | Legacy design-in with existing IDT footprint; no layout change required | Select when maintaining legacy BOMs or sourcing from IDT-distributed inventory |
| PI6C557-03LEX | 8-output LVCMOS buffer with 2:1 mux; 75 fs jitter (typ), 100 ps skew, supports 250 MHz max frequency; different pinout and no internal pull-ups on control pins | Higher-frequency requirement (>200 MHz) or need for lower-cost alternative where jitter margin allows | Select when frequency headroom or cost sensitivity outweighs ultra-low-jitter requirement |
Compared with ICS552-02TGI and PI6C557-03LEX, the 552-02SPGGI8 offers the lowest additive phase jitter (50 fs) and tightest skew control (≤65 ps), making it optimal for jitter-critical SerDes and memory subsystems where timing margin is constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum input clock frequency supported by the 552-02SPGGI8?
The 552-02SPGGI8 supports input clock frequencies up to 200 MHz across all supply voltages (1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V). This specification is verified per AC Electrical Characteristics in the official Renesas datasheet dated April 9, 2024, and applies to both INA and INB inputs under recommended operating conditions.
Does the 552-02SPGGI8 require external pull-up resistors on OE or SELA pins?
No, the 552-02SPGGI8 includes internal pull-up resistors on both OE and SELA pins. This eliminates the need for external components, simplifying board design and ensuring defined logic states during power-up. The internal pull-up guarantees default INA selection and enabled outputs unless actively overridden.
Can the 552-02SPGGI8 operate at 1.8 V while accepting 3.3 V clock inputs?
Yes, the 552-02SPGGI8 supports 3.3 V tolerant inputs (INA and INB) while operating from a 1.8 V supply. This rail-to-rail input compatibility allows direct connection to higher-voltage clock sources without level-shifting circuitry, reducing component count and signal integrity risk in mixed-voltage systems.
What package type is used for the 552-02SPGGI8?
The 552-02SPGGI8 uses a 16-pin TSSOP (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package) with 4.4 mm body width and Pb-free, RoHS-compliant finish. The "PGGI" suffix in the part number explicitly denotes this TSSOP package, and the "8" indicates tape-and-reel packaging format.
How does the 552-02SPGGI8 manage output skew across all eight channels?
The 552-02SPGGI8 achieves ≤65 ps output-to-output skew by matching internal path delays and driving identical loads. To maintain this performance, Renesas specifies that all eight outputs must use identical trace geometries, terminations (e.g., 33 Ω series resistors), and capacitive loads. Deviations degrade measured skew, as confirmed in the Application section of the datasheet.
