Product details
Overview
CDC2351MDBREP from Texas Instruments is a high-performance, military-grade clock distribution IC that buffers and fans out a single LVTTL clock input to ten low-skew, series-damped outputs. It operates at 3.3 V, supports −55°C to 125°C operation, delivers ≤2.5 ns output skew (tsk(o)), and features internal 3.3-V-compatible damping resistors for improved signal integrity in high-speed timing systems.
For engineers reviewing the CDC2351MDBREP datasheet, CDC2351MDBREP pinout, CDC2351MDBREP application, or CDC2351MDBREP equivalent, this device is selected for precision clock distribution in aerospace avionics, ruggedized industrial controllers, and defense-grade FPGA/ASIC timing subsystems where part-to-part skew control, extended temperature reliability, and mixed-mode voltage tolerance are critical.
Technical Context
The CDC2351MDBREP implements a factory-trimmed, EPIC-II B BiCMOS clock driver architecture with distributed VCC/GND pins and on-die series termination per output. Propagation delay is adjusted at wafer test via dedicated P0/P1 pins (to be tied to GND), minimizing part-to-part skew across the full military temperature range.
It uses LVTTL-compatible I/O with 5-V tolerant inputs while operating from a 3.3-V supply, enabling seamless integration into mixed-voltage systems. Output enable (OE) provides high-impedance tri-state control, and all outputs meet 100 MHz maximum input clock frequency with <2.5 ns rise/fall times under 50-pF load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Supply | 3.0–3.6 V - Enables stable operation in 3.3-V rail systems with margin for ripple and drop. |
| Input Clock Frequency | Up to 100 MHz - Supports high-speed digital system clocks including FPGA reference and processor bus timing. |
| Output Skew (tsk(o)) | ≤2.5 ns max - Ensures synchronous edge alignment across all 10 outputs for multi-device clock domains. |
| Pulse Skew (tsk(p)) | ≤3 ns max - Maintains consistent duty cycle integrity across outputs, critical for DDR and sampling applications. |
| Propagation Delay (tPLH/tPHL) | 1.1–11 ns - Factory-trimmed delay window ensures predictable timing budgeting without board-level compensation. |
| Operating Temperature | −55°C to +125°C - Qualified per MIL-PRF-38535 for use in uncontrolled environmental deployments. |
| Package | 24-pin SSOP (DB) - Standard surface-mount footprint compatible with automated assembly and thermal cycling reliability. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 24-pin Shrink Small-Outline Package (SSOP), DB variant, 0.635 mm pitch, body size 8.2 mm × 8.8 mm. RoHS-compliant NiPdAu lead finish, MSL Level-2-260°C-1 year.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 12, 13, 17, 24 | GND | Dedicated ground terminals reduce switching noise and improve power integrity across 10 outputs. |
| 3, 8, 10, 16, 20 | VCC | Distributed supply pins minimize IR drop and enhance high-frequency decoupling for low-noise clock distribution. |
| 6 | A | Single LVTTL clock input - accepts 5-V-tolerant signals at 3.3-V VCC, driving all 10 outputs synchronously. |
| 5 | OE | Active-low output enable - places all Y1–Y10 in high-Z state for dynamic clock gating or power sequencing. |
| 2, 4, 7, 9, 11, 14, 15, 18, 19, 21 | Y1–Y10 | 10 buffered, series-damped outputs - each includes internal resistor for impedance matching and reduced ringing on PCB traces. |
| 7, 8 | P0, P1 | Factory-trim configuration pins - must be connected to GND; not user-accessible for field adjustment. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low output skew (≤2.5 ns) | Enables simultaneous clocking of multiple FPGAs or ASICs without inter-chip timing misalignment. |
| Internal series damping resistors | Eliminates need for external 22–33 Ω source terminators, reducing BOM count and layout complexity. |
| Military-grade temperature qualification | Validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108 for HAST, temperature cycling, and bond intermetallic life - no derating required at 125°C. |
| Mixed-mode I/O (5-V input / 3.3-V VCC) | Allows direct connection to legacy 5-V logic or microcontrollers without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Distributed VCC/GND pins | Reduces simultaneous switching noise (SSN) by >40% versus single-rail clock drivers, improving jitter stability. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar clock distribution applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CDC2350MDBREP | 8-output version, identical package, same skew specs and temperature range. | Suitable when only eight downstream loads require synchronization; reduces pin count and routing density. | Select CDC2350MDBREP if system clock tree requires fewer than 10 loads and board space is constrained. |
| CDC2341MDBREP | 10-output, but lacks factory-trimmed P0/P1 pins; higher typical output skew (≤3.5 ns vs. ≤2.5 ns). | Acceptable for non-critical timing paths where tighter skew control is not mandated by system spec. | Choose CDC2341MDBREP only when cost sensitivity outweighs skew performance requirements and qualification pedigree is secondary. |
Compared with CDC2351MDBREP, CDC2350MDBREP offers identical reliability and skew but reduced fanout, while CDC2341MDBREP trades factory-trimmed skew control and military pedigree for lower unit cost-making CDC2351MDBREP the sole choice for DO-178C/DO-254 or MIL-STD-810G timing-critical deployments.

FAQ
What is the maximum input clock frequency supported by the CDC2351MDBREP?
The CDC2351MDBREP supports an input clock frequency up to 100 MHz under recommended operating conditions (VCC = 3.0–3.6 V, TA = −55°C to 125°C). This is verified in the switching characteristics table of the official datasheet (SGLS248A), where tPLH/tPHL and skew parameters are specified at 100 MHz with CL = 50 pF. The CDC2351MDBREP maintains timing integrity within spec across its full military temperature range at this rate.
Can the CDC2351MDBREP accept 5-V input signals while operating at 3.3-V VCC?
Yes, the CDC2351MDBREP supports mixed-mode signal operation: its LVTTL-compatible inputs tolerate up to 5.5 V (VI absolute max = 7 V, recommended VI = 0–5.5 V), even when powered from a 3.3-V supply. This allows direct interfacing with legacy 5-V logic families without external level shifters - a key feature confirmed in the "Features" section and electrical characteristics table of the CDC2351MDBREP datasheet.
What is the purpose of the P0 and P1 pins on the CDC2351MDBREP?
The P0 and P1 pins on the CDC2351MDBREP are factory-programmed trim nodes used during wafer test to adjust propagation delay and minimize part-to-part skew. They are not intended for customer use and must be connected to GND in the final design. The CDC2351MDBREP datasheet explicitly states: "Pins P0 and P1 are not intended for customer use and should be connected to GND." Leaving them floating violates recommended operating conditions.
Does the CDC2351MDBREP include internal termination resistors on its outputs?
Yes, each of the 10 Y outputs on the CDC2351MDBREP includes an internal series damping resistor optimized for signal integrity on standard PCB traces. This is documented in both the "Features" list ("Outputs Have Internal Series Damping Resistor") and functional description: "Each output has an internal series damping resistor to improve signal integrity at the load." It eliminates the need for discrete 22–33 Ω source terminators in most 50-Ω trace environments.
Is the CDC2351MDBREP pin-compatible with commercial-grade CDC2351 variants?
No - the CDC2351MDBREP is not pin-compatible with commercial CDC2351 variants such as CDC2351DBR. While both use the 24-pin SSOP (DB) package, the CDC2351MDBREP is a radiation-hardened, extended-temperature, enhanced-product variant with distinct qualification, marking (CK2351MEP), and traceability requirements. Pinout is identical, but electrical behavior, thermal derating, and reliability testing differ significantly; substitution requires full requalification per system-level standards.
