Product details
Overview
PCKV857ADGV,112 from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Philips Semiconductors) is a 100–250 MHz differential 1:10 zero-delay clock driver IC optimized for DDR SDRAM memory subsystems. It features SSTL_2 I/O, 2.2–2.7 V AVDD and 2.3–2.7 V VDDQ operation, <150 ps output skew, <75 ps period jitter, and power-down control for DDR-266/300/333 DIMM applications.
For engineers reviewing the PCKV857ADGV,112 datasheet, PCKV857ADGV,112 pinout, PCKV857ADGV,112 application, or PCKV857ADGV,112 equivalent, key selection criteria include differential clock fanout capability, SSTL_2 interface compliance, low-jitter timing performance, PLL-enabled zero-delay operation, and TSSOP-48 package compatibility with high-density DDR memory modules.
Technical Context
The PCKV857ADGV,112 integrates a PLL-based zero-delay architecture to distribute one differential clock input (CLK/CLK) to ten matched differential output pairs (Y0–Y9) plus feedback outputs (FBOUT/FBIN), all compliant with JEDEC SSTL_2 signaling. It supports spread-spectrum clock tracking and automatic PLL disable below 20 MHz.
Operation requires dual supply domains: analog AVDD (2.2–2.7 V) for PLL stability and digital VDDQ (2.3–2.7 V) for SSTL_2 I/O. Power-down mode (PWRDWN = LOW) places all outputs in high-impedance state and shuts down the PLL, reducing total current to ≤100 µA.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Clock frequency range | 100–250 MHz - supports DDR-266 (133 MHz), DDR-300 (150 MHz), and DDR-333 (166 MHz) base clocks with margin |
| Output skew | ≤150 ps - ensures tight timing alignment across all 10 output pairs for synchronous memory access |
| Period jitter | ±75 ps - meets JEDEC timing budget for DDR SDRAM setup/hold margins at 200+ MHz |
| Supply voltage (AVDD) | 2.2–2.7 V - powers PLL core; grounding AVDD bypasses PLL for test-mode operation |
| Supply voltage (VDDQ) | 2.3–2.7 V - powers SSTL_2 I/O buffers; compatible with standard DDR memory bus voltage |
| Power-down current | ≤100 µA - enables low-power standby during memory idle cycles without external sequencing |
| Differential input voltage | 0.36–(VDDQ + 0.6) V - supports robust SSTL_2 signal detection across process/voltage/temperature corners |
Pinout & Package
Package: TVSOP-48 (SOT480-1), 4.4 mm body width, 0.4 mm lead pitch, lead-free and RoHS-compliant per original Philips specification.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 13, 14 | CLK, CLK | Differential SSTL_2 clock input pair - drives PLL reference; accepts DC-coupled or AC-coupled inputs |
| 35, 36 | FBIN, FBIN | Differential feedback input pair - closes PLL loop; connects to FBOUT outputs for zero-delay operation |
| 2–3, 5–6, 9–10, 19–20, 22–23, 26–27, 29–30, 32–33, 39–40, 43–44, 46–47 | Y0–Y9, Y0–Y9, FBOUT, FBOUT | SSTL_2 differential outputs - 10 clock distribution pairs + 1 feedback pair; all terminated internally per SSTL_2 Type IV |
| 37 | PWRDWN | CMOS active-HIGH control - asserts HIGH to enable outputs and PLL; LOW forces 3-state outputs and PLL shutdown |
| 16 | AVDD | Analog supply for PLL - must be decoupled locally; grounding disables PLL for test/bypass mode |
| 4, 11, 12, 15, 21, 28, 34, 38, 46 | VDDQ | SSTL_2 I/O supply - powers all output drivers and input receivers; nine dedicated pins reduce IR drop |
| 1, 7, 8, 18, 24, 25, 31, 41, 42, 48 | GND | Digital ground - 10 dedicated GND pins provide low-inductance return paths for high-speed switching |
| 17 | AGND | Analog ground - isolated reference for AVDD domain; must be connected to system ground at single point |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Zero-delay PLL architecture | Eliminates cumulative propagation delay in multi-DIMM systems by locking output phase to input via internal feedback loop |
| SSTL_2 I/O compliance | Meets JEDEC JESD8-6 specifications for DDR memory clock interfaces without external termination resistors |
| Automatic low-frequency detection | Disables PLL and enters power-down when input falls below 20 MHz - prevents spurious lock and reduces EMI |
| Spread-spectrum clock tolerance | Tracks ±0.5% modulated input clocks to reduce electromagnetic interference in high-density memory subsystems |
| Test mode support | Grounding AVDD bypasses PLL while enabling buffer pass-through - simplifies functional validation on test fixtures |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar differential clock distribution applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IDT 853S111BYI | 1:10 LVDS output; 1.8 V core; no integrated PLL; fixed 2.5 V VDDO | Lacks zero-delay capability; requires external feedback loop for phase alignment | Preferred where LVDS signaling and lower power are prioritized over PLL-based skew correction |
| ON Semiconductor NB3N502DR2G | 1:10 HCSL output; 3.3 V only; integrated PLL; higher jitter (±150 ps) | Designed for PCIe Gen1 clock trees; not SSTL_2 compliant | Applicable in mixed-protocol systems where HCSL interface and wider voltage tolerance outweigh DDR-specific optimization |
Compared with PCKV857ADGV,112, IDT 853S111BYI offers lower power but no PLL-based skew correction, while NB3N502DR2G provides broader voltage support but lacks SSTL_2 compliance - making PCKV857ADGV,112 uniquely suited for JEDEC-compliant DDR-266/300/333 memory clocking.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the PCKV857ADGV,112?
The PCKV857ADGV,112 is characterized for operation from 0 °C to +70 °C ambient temperature. This commercial-grade range aligns with standard DDR memory module environmental requirements and is validated across all specified electrical parameters including skew, jitter, and supply current. The device does not support extended or industrial temperature grades per its original Philips product data sheet.
Does the PCKV857ADGV,112 require external termination resistors on its SSTL_2 outputs?
No, the PCKV857ADGV,112 is designed for SSTL_2 Type IV unterminated operation and does not require external series or parallel termination resistors. Its output drivers are internally matched to drive 60 Ω differential loads directly, as confirmed by the test circuit in Figure 9 of the official datasheet and the note stating "intended to operate in the SSTL_2 type IV unterminated mode without series resistors."
How does the PCKV857ADGV,112 handle input frequencies below 20 MHz?
When the input clock frequency drops below 20 MHz, the PCKV857ADGV,112 automatically disables its PLL and places all outputs in high-impedance state, entering low-power mode with ≤100 µA total current draw. Once a >20 MHz signal is reapplied, the internal detection circuit re-enables the PLL and restores normal output operation - no external reset or configuration is needed.
Can the PCKV857ADGV,112 be used with DDR2 or DDR3 memory interfaces?
No, the PCKV857ADGV,112 is specifically designed for DDR (DDR1) SDRAM applications per JEDEC standards JESD79 and JESD8-6. It supports DDR-266/300/333 data rates and SSTL_2 signaling only. DDR2 uses SSTL_18 and DDR3 uses SSTL_15, both incompatible with the PCKV857ADGV,112's I/O structure and voltage ranges.
What is the function of the AVDD pin on the PCKV857ADGV,112?
The AVDD pin on the PCKV857ADGV,112 supplies the analog voltage (2.2–2.7 V) required for the internal PLL circuitry. When AVDD is grounded, the PLL is disabled and bypassed - enabling test-mode operation where clock signals pass through buffers without phase alignment. Proper local decoupling of AVDD is critical for achieving specified jitter and phase noise performance.
