Product details
Overview
CY2309ZXC-1HT from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress) is a 3.3 V zero-delay clock buffer IC with integrated PLL, delivering nine low-skew outputs in two banks (4+4+1), operating up to 133 MHz, featuring 60 ps typical cycle-to-cycle jitter and 85 ps typical output-to-output skew, used for clock distribution in Pentium-based CPU and PCI bus systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY2309ZXC-1HT datasheet, CY2309ZXC-1HT pinout, CY2309ZXC-1HT application, or CY2309ZXC-1HT equivalent, key selection criteria include input frequency range (10–133 MHz), bank-selectable output control (S1/S2), test-mode bypass capability, high-drive (-1H) output drive strength, and TSSOP-16 package compatibility.
Technical Context
The CY2309ZXC-1HT implements an on-chip PLL with internal feedback from the CLKOUT pin to achieve zero input-output propagation delay when all outputs-including CLKOUT-are uniformly loaded. Its dual-bank architecture (Bank A: CLKA1–CLKA4; Bank B: CLKB1–CLKB4) enables selective three-state control via S1/S2 inputs.
It supports test mode by routing REF directly to outputs (bypassing PLL) and enters power-down mode (<25 µA IDD) when REF has no rising edges. The -1H suffix denotes higher drive strength: 12 mA sink/source vs. 8 mA for -1 versions, enabling faster edge rates and improved signal integrity at 100–133 MHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Operating Frequency | 10 MHz to 133 MHz - supports PCI bus and Pentium-class CPU clock domains |
| Supply Voltage | 3.0 V to 3.6 V - compatible with standard 3.3 V logic rails and noise margins |
| Output Skew | 85 ps typical - ensures synchronous timing across nine outputs in multi-processor or memory interface applications |
| Jitter (Cycle-to-Cycle) | 60 ps typical - meets tight timing budgets for high-speed DDR and parallel bus interfaces |
| Drive Strength | 12 mA sink/source - enables driving 10 pF loads at 133 MHz with controlled rise/fall times |
| Input Tolerance | 5 V tolerant REF input - allows direct interfacing with legacy 5 V clock sources without level shifters |
| Power-Down Current | <25 µA - reduces system standby power when reference clock is inactive |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-pin 4.4-mm TSSOP (lead pitch: 0.65 mm), RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 REF | Reference clock input | 5 V tolerant, threshold = VDD/2; weak pull-down; PLL reference source |
| 2–3, 14–15 CLKA1–CLKA4 | Bank A buffered outputs | Grouped outputs controllable via S1/S2; weak pull-down; driven in normal mode |
| 6–7, 10–11 CLKB1–CLKB4 | Bank B buffered outputs | Independent bank; three-statable via S1/S2 decoding; same drive as Bank A |
| 8 S2, 9 S1 | Select inputs | Weak pull-up; configure output enable/bypass mode per Select Input Decoding table |
| 16 CLKOUT | Internal PLL feedback output | Must be loaded identically to other outputs to maintain zero delay; drives PLL loop |
| 4, 13 VDD | Power supply | 3.3 V supply pins; decoupling required near both for noise suppression |
| 5, 12 GND | Ground | Dual ground pins reduce return path inductance and improve skew performance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Zero input-output delay | PLL feedback from CLKOUT enables precise phase alignment-critical for synchronous bus timing |
| Bank-selectable outputs | S1/S2 inputs allow dynamic three-state control of Bank B, reducing EMI and power during idle cycles |
| Test mode bypass | Direct REF-to-output path (S1=1, S2=0) enables system-level clock validation without PLL lock dependency |
| High-drive (-1H) outputs | 12 mA drive supports 10 pF loads at 133 MHz with <1 ns rise/fall times-improves signal fidelity over SOIC variants |

Equivalent & Alternatives
Two validated alternatives exist for CY2309ZXC-1HT, differing in output count, drive strength, and package options.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ICS553M-01ILF | 8-output, 3.3 V, 133 MHz max, 75 ps skew, SOIC-20 package | No bank-select or test-mode bypass; fixed output configuration | Choose when fewer outputs are needed and system-level PLL bypass is unnecessary |
| PI6C20400LEX | 9-output, 3.3 V, 150 MHz max, 50 ps skew, TSSOP-20 package, integrated spread-spectrum | Includes EMI reduction; no S1/S2 control; higher cost and larger footprint | Choose for noise-sensitive applications requiring FCC/CE compliance without external filtering |
Compared with ICS553M-01ILF and PI6C20400LEX, the CY2309ZXC-1HT uniquely balances bank-select flexibility, test-mode accessibility, and TSSOP-16 compactness-making it optimal for space-constrained, multi-domain clocking where dynamic output control matters.

FAQ
What is the function of the CLKOUT pin on CY2309ZXC-1HT?
The CLKOUT pin provides internal PLL feedback and must be loaded identically to other outputs to achieve zero input-output delay. Even if unused, it requires a capacitive load matching the output load (e.g., 10 pF at 133 MHz) to maintain phase alignment. It is not intended as a general-purpose output but is essential for PLL stability and skew control.
How does the S1/S2 select logic affect output behavior?
S1 and S2 determine output state per the Select Input Decoding table: S1=0/S2=0 three-states both banks; S1=1/S2=0 enables Bank A only; S1=0/S2=1 enables Bank B only; S1=1/S2=1 enables all outputs with PLL active. This allows dynamic power gating and test-mode operation without external logic.
Can CY2309ZXC-1HT operate with a 25 MHz input and drive 30 pF loads?
Yes. At 25 MHz, the device supports up to 30 pF load capacitance per output (per datasheet Operating Conditions). With its 12 mA drive strength and 3.3 V supply, it delivers clean edges into 30 pF, maintaining <85 ps skew and <60 ps jitter-suitable for legacy ISA or LPC bus clocking.
Is the CY2309ZXC-1HT pin-compatible with CY2309SC-1HT?
Yes. Both share identical 16-pin TSSOP pinout, electrical characteristics, and functional behavior. The "ZXC" suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging with extended industrial temperature rating (–40°C to +85°C), while "SC" denotes standard commercial grade (0°C to +70°C); no pin or logic differences exist.
