Product details
Overview
8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 from Renesas (formerly IDT) is a LVDS dual-frequency programmable VCXO with factory-programmed frequencies in two bands: 15.476–866.67 MHz and 975–1300 MHz, ±218 Hz resolution, 0.47 ps RMS phase jitter at 156.25 MHz (12 kHz–20 MHz), and operation from −40°C to +85°C. It serves as a precision timing source in wireless infrastructure baseband units requiring rapid frequency switching via FSEL control.
For engineers reviewing the 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 datasheet, 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 pinout, 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 application, or 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-band frequency agility, LVDS output compliance, VCXO pull-range programmability (±4.5 to ±754.5 ppm), supply flexibility (2.5 V or 3.3 V), and ceramic 5 mm × 7 mm package compatibility with high-density RF board layouts.
Technical Context
The 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 implements a fourth-generation FemtoClock® NG PLL architecture with a 114.285 MHz fundamental crystal oscillator, fractional-N feedback divider (MINT + MFRAC), pre-divider (P), and post-divider (N), enabling sub-hertz frequency resolution across both bands. Its VCO operates at 1950–2600 MHz, supporting wideband synthesis while minimizing multiplication-induced phase noise.
Frequency selection is controlled by the LVCMOS/LVTTL-compatible FSEL pin, which switches between two factory-programmed configurations stored in ROM. The VC input accepts 0–VCC tuning voltage with programmable oscillator gain (7.57–477.27 ppm/V at 3.3 V), and output enable is absent-this device lacks an OE pin per ordering code "V85" and pin assignment diagram.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar VCXO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si514-A-D-GM | Single-frequency I²C-programmable XO (not VCXO); no VC input or FSEL; ±10 ppm stability; 100 MHz max output. | Lacks dual-band agility and analog tuning - suitable only for fixed-frequency, non-synchronized systems. | Select when absolute frequency stability outweighs pull-range flexibility and FSEL switching is unnecessary. |
| AK2A01-000000000000000 | LVDS dual-frequency VCXO; same 5×7 mm package; ±20 ppm option (K-code); 15–1300 MHz range; no FSEL pin - uses SPI for frequency selection. | Requires microcontroller interface and firmware overhead; slower switching (>10 ms); higher design complexity. | Choose when SPI-controlled frequency agility is preferred over hardware-pin simplicity and sub-ms switching is not critical. |
Compared with Si514-A-D-GM and AK2A01-000000000000000, the 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 uniquely delivers hardware-based dual-frequency switching with analog VCXO tuning, sub-ps jitter, and industrial temperature support - making it optimal for carrier-grade wireless infrastructure where deterministic timing behavior and minimal BOM count are essential.

FAQ
What is the function of the FSEL pin on the 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8?
The FSEL pin on the 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 is a LVCMOS/LVTTL-compatible digital input that selects between two factory-programmed output frequencies. When driven low (0), it activates Frequency 0; when high (1), it activates Frequency 1. Switching occurs within 1 ms, with no glitch or runt pulse, enabling reliable band-switching in 5G baseband architectures. The pin includes an internal 50 kΩ pulldown resistor.
Does the 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 support output enable (OE) functionality?
No, the 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 does not include output enable (OE) functionality. Per its ordering code "V85" and pin assignment diagram, this variant omits an OE pin - outputs Q and nQ remain continuously active once powered. For applications requiring clock gating, external LVDS multiplexers or power sequencing must be used. This differs from variants like V75 or V01 that integrate OE.
What is the maximum RMS phase jitter specification for the 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 at 1 GHz output?
At 1 GHz output (within the 500 MHz < fOUT ≤ 1300 MHz band), the 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 specifies RMS phase jitter of 0.46–0.67 ps (typical to maximum) over the 12 kHz–20 MHz integration range. This value is measured with VC = VCC/2 and reflects the device's optimized fractional-N synthesis and high-VCO-frequency architecture, meeting OC-192 and 10G Ethernet PHY timing budgets.
Can the 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 be operated from a 2.5 V supply?
Yes, the 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 supports both 2.5 V ±5% and 3.3 V ±5% supply voltages. At 2.5 V, it draws 136–170 mA (typical 170 mA), delivers LVDS output swing of 247–454 mV, and maintains full AC/DC specifications including ±50 ppm total stability (option E) and 0.47 ps RMS phase jitter at 156.25 MHz. No configuration change is needed - supply voltage is detected automatically.
What package type and dimensions does the 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 use?
The 8N4DV85EC-0019CDI8 uses a RoHS 6-compliant 6-lead ceramic surface-mount package measuring 5.0 mm × 7.0 mm × 1.55 mm. It features gold-plated terminations, is qualified for reflow soldering per J-STD-020, and has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 49.4°C/W at zero airflow. This compact, thermally efficient package is widely adopted in high-density RF modules.
