Product details
Overview
8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8 from Renesas Electronics (formerly IDT) is a factory-programmed LVPECL voltage-controlled crystal oscillator (VCXO) with fourth-generation FemtoClock® NG PLL synthesis. It delivers 156.25 MHz output at 3.3 V supply, ±50 ppm total stability over –40°C to +85°C, 0.5 ps RMS phase jitter (12 kHz–20 MHz), and supports output enable control. Used in telecom line cards requiring precise, low-jitter clocking for SerDes and Ethernet PHYs.
For engineers reviewing the 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8 datasheet, 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8 pinout, 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8 application, or 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8 equivalent, key selection criteria include its programmable VCXO pull range (±50 ppm option), LVPECL differential output compliance, 6-pin ceramic 5 mm × 7 mm package, and guaranteed phase noise performance at 156.25 MHz.
Technical Context
The 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8 integrates a 114.285 MHz fundamental-mode crystal with a fractional-N PLL featuring a 7-bit integer (MINT) and 18-bit fractional (MFRAC) feedback divider, enabling high-resolution frequency synthesis. Its VCO operates at 1950–2600 MHz before post-division.
It uses delta-sigma modulation for noise shaping and achieves low phase noise via high-reference-frequency multiplication. The device implements factory-configured VCXO control voltage polarity and absolute pull range (APR), with oscillator gain (KV) ranging from 7.57 to 477.27 ppm/V at 3.3 V.

Applications
| 10G/25G Ethernet Line Cards | OTN Transport Equipment |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Providing reference clock to 10GBase-R or 25G Ethernet PHYs in carrier-grade aggregation switches. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary low-jitter VCXO source for SerDes CDR circuits, synchronized to network timing via Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE). Use Value: 0.5 ps RMS phase jitter ensures bit error rate <1e–12 under worst-case channel loss and crosstalk conditions. | Use Scenario: Generating OTU2/OTU3 frame timing in DWDM line systems with hitless protection switching. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Programmable VCXO referenced to BITS or PRC clocks, supporting holdover and fast reacquisition during network synchronization loss. Use Value: ±50 ppm APR enables tight loop bandwidth control in slave PLLs, minimizing wander accumulation per ITU-T G.813. |
| 5G Radio Unit (RU) Baseband | CPRI/eCPRI Fronthaul Timing |
Use Scenario: Delivering sample clock to wideband ADC/DAC in massive MIMO radio units operating in outdoor enclosures. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Temperature-stable VCXO providing 156.25 MHz or harmonically related clocks for digital up/down conversion chains. Use Value: –40°C to +85°C operation and ±63 ppm 10-year stability ensure timing integrity across environmental extremes without recalibration. | Use Scenario: Synchronizing CPRI/eCPRI fronthaul links between BBU and remote radio heads in distributed antenna systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-phase-noise VCXO used as local oscillator in fronthaul transceivers, locked to master clock via IEEE 1588 or SyncE. Use Value: Sub-1 ps cycle-to-cycle jitter prevents timing misalignment that would degrade IQ constellation fidelity in 256-QAM transmissions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar VCXO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8N3SV75EC-0027CDI8 | Same package, same electrical specs, but factory-programmed to 125 MHz output frequency. | Used where 125 MHz is required for PCIe Gen3 or SATA Gen3 reference clocks instead of 156.25 MHz. | Select only if target system requires 125 MHz; no PCB or firmware changes needed beyond frequency configuration. |
| Si510-PROG | Programmable I2C-configurable XO (not VCXO); 0.8 ps phase jitter at 156.25 MHz; 3.3 V only; 5 mm × 7 mm QFN. | Lacks analog VCXO tuning capability; suited for fixed-frequency applications with digital reconfiguration needs. | Choose when design requires field-programmability or I2C-based frequency agility, not analog voltage tuning. |
Compared with 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8, the 0027 variant offers identical form-factor and stability but targets different data rates, while Si510-PROG trades VCXO functionality for digital configurability-making it unsuitable for analog PLL lock loops but advantageous for multi-protocol systems needing runtime frequency updates.

FAQ
What is the factory-programmed output frequency of the 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8?
The 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8 is factory-programmed to deliver a precise 156.25 MHz LVPECL differential output. This frequency aligns with industry standards for 10G Ethernet (10GBase-R), OTU2 framing, and CPRI/eCPRI fronthaul timing. The device does not support field reprogramming - its frequency and VCXO pull range are permanently set during manufacturing per order code 0026.
Does the 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8 support both 2.5 V and 3.3 V supply voltages?
No, the 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8 is specifically configured for 3.3 V ±5% operation (Option Code E). Its internal regulators and LVPECL driver stages are optimized for this supply; applying 2.5 V will result in noncompliant output voltage swing and degraded jitter performance. For 2.5 V operation, select part numbers with Option Codes B, F, or L (e.g., 8N3SV75FC-xxxx).
How is the VCXO pull range implemented in the 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8?
The 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8 implements a factory-programmed absolute pull range (APR) of ±50 ppm via internal register settings controlling the PLL's oscillator gain (KV) and control voltage scaling. With VC applied from 0 to VCC, the output frequency deviates linearly within ±50 ppm of 156.25 MHz. This APR is fixed and cannot be altered post-manufacture - it is defined by the "E" option code and order-specific programming.
What termination scheme is required for the LVPECL outputs of the 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8?
The 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8 LVPECL outputs (Q and nQ) require DC-coupled 50 Ω termination to VCC – 2 V. For 3.3 V operation, this equals 1.3 V. Recommended layouts use dual 84 Ω resistors (Figure 1A) or 125 Ω resistors (Figure 1B) per output leg. AC coupling is not supported. Improper termination causes signal integrity degradation, increased jitter, and duty cycle distortion beyond the specified 45–55% range.
Can the 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8 be used in place of a fixed-frequency XO?
Yes, the 8N3SV75EC-0026CDI8 can function as a high-stability XO by holding the VC pin at VCC/2 (1.65 V), which centers the output at the nominal 156.25 MHz frequency with minimal drift. Its ±50 ppm total stability over 10 years matches or exceeds many standalone XOs. However, unlike a pure XO, it retains full VCXO capability - enabling fine-tuning, holdover compensation, or synchronization to external references when needed.
