Product details
Overview
PI49FCT32807QE from Diodes Incorporated is a 3.3V, 1:10 CMOS clock buffer with rail-to-rail outputs, <200ps output skew, <2.5ns propagation delay, and 5V-tolerant input-designed for low-noise clock distribution in industrial timing systems requiring stable 133MHz operation.
For engineers reviewing the PI49FCT32807QE datasheet, PI49FCT32807QE pinout, PI49FCT32807QE application, or PI49FCT32807QE equivalent, key selection criteria include output skew budget, input capacitance (<6.0pF), integrated 22Ω series damping resistors, and QSOP-20 thermal performance under –40°C to +85°C conditions.
Technical Context
The PI49FCT32807QE implements a single-input, ten-output fanout architecture with on-die series termination on all B0–B9 outputs to suppress reflections and reduce EMI. Its CMOS output stage delivers rail-to-rail swing (VOH ≥2.4V, VOL ≤0.5V at 3.3V) while maintaining fast edge rates (<1.5ns rise/fall).
It operates across 3.3V ±10% supply with <30µA quiescent current and supports 5V logic-level inputs without external level shifters. Propagation delay variation (tSK(O) ≤200ps) and pulse skew (tSK(P) ≤350ps) are guaranteed by design-not production tested-enabling deterministic timing in synchronous backplanes and FPGA clock trees.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 3.3V ±10% - ensures compatibility with standard LVCMOS I/O domains and eliminates need for dedicated voltage regulators. |
| Output Skew (tSK(O)) | ≤200ps - guarantees tight phase alignment across all 10 outputs for multi-sink synchronous clocking. |
| Propagation Delay | ≤2.5ns - enables sub-400MHz timing margin in high-speed control loops and DDR interface clocks. |
| Input Capacitance | <6.0pF - minimizes loading on upstream clock sources such as crystal oscillators or PLLs. |
| Max Switching Frequency | 133MHz - supports PCIe Gen1, USB 1.1, and legacy processor bus clocking without derating. |
| Output Series Resistance | 22Ω - integrated damping reduces overshoot/ringing on PCB traces up to 10cm length at 133MHz. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - validated for industrial-grade embedded controllers and base station timing modules. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 20-pin QSOP (150-mil wide), RoHS-compliant, lead-free, green (halogen/antimony-free).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A | Single-ended clock input | 5V-tolerant TTL/CMOS-compatible input with <6pF capacitance; accepts 0.8V–5.0V logic levels. |
| B0–B9 | CMOS clock outputs | 10 rail-to-rail buffered outputs, each with internal 22Ω series resistor for controlled impedance drive. |
| VCC | Power supply | 3.3V ±10% supply pin; multiple VCC pins distributed across package to reduce power rail noise coupling. |
| GND | Ground reference | Multiple GND pins interleaved with VCC and outputs to minimize ground bounce and improve PSRR. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Very low output skew | <200ps between any two outputs ensures deterministic setup/hold timing across multi-FPGA clock domains. |
| Integrated series damping | 22Ω per output eliminates need for external termination resistors and saves PCB area in dense routing. |
| Rail-to-rail CMOS outputs | VOH ≥2.4V / VOL ≤0.5V at 3.3V enables direct interfacing with 3.3V logic families without level translation. |
| 5V-tolerant input | Accepts 5V logic signals without damage or external clamping-simplifies integration with legacy microcontrollers. |
| Low quiescent current | <30µA ICC - critical for always-on timing subsystems in battery-backed industrial gateways. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Backplane Clocking | FPGA Configuration Clock Distribution |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Distributing a master clock across 10 I/O modules in a modular programmable logic controller rack. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fanout buffer providing synchronized, low-skew copies of 50MHz system clock to isolated module slots.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Single-source clock repeater ensuring simultaneous bitstream load initiation across all devices. Use Value: Integrated 22Ω termination eliminates trace-length matching requirements and reduces layout complexity. |
| Legacy CPU Bus Timing | Industrial Ethernet PHY Synchronization |
Use Scenario: Generating 33MHz PCI clock and 66MHz AGP clock from a common oscillator in an industrial PC motherboard. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-frequency clock fanout via external divider chains fed from one PI49FCT32807QE output bank. Use Value: Low propagation delay (<2.5ns) preserves setup time margins for address/data latching on legacy buses. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision clock distributor delivering matched-phase clocks to PHY REF_CLK inputs. Use Value: Guaranteed tSK(O) ≤200ps meets IEEE 802.3 clause 40 jitter accumulation limits for multi-PHY systems. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar clock buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IDT 5V991A-10JGI | 10-output, 3.3V LVTTL buffer; no integrated series resistors; higher skew (350ps); requires external termination. | Suitable for lower-frequency (<80MHz) systems where board space allows discrete 33Ω resistors. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs layout simplification and skew budget is relaxed. |
| ON Semi NB3N3010MNR2G | 10-output, 3.3V LVCMOS buffer; 250ps skew; no 5V-tolerant input; 1.8V–3.6V supply range. | Preferred for mixed-voltage designs with 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V domains but incompatible with 5V control logic. | Choose only if upstream clock source is strictly 3.3V and no 5V interface exists in the signal chain. |
Compared with IDT 5V991A-10JGI and ON Semi NB3N3010MNR2G, the PI49FCT32807QE uniquely combines 5V-tolerant input, integrated 22Ω termination, and <200ps skew-making it optimal for industrial backplanes where legacy compatibility, layout efficiency, and tight timing budgets coexist.

FAQ
Can the PI49FCT32807QE operate with a 2.5V supply?
No. The PI49FCT32807QE is specified only for 3.3V ±10% operation (2.97V–3.63V). At 2.5V, VOH drops below 2.0V and VOL rises above 0.6V, violating CMOS logic thresholds and risking unreliable switching in downstream receivers. The device lacks 2.5V operational mode support in its electrical characteristics table.
Is the 5V-tolerant input protected against continuous 5V DC application?
Yes. The input structure includes internal clamp diodes rated for continuous 5V DC application per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. VIH is guaranteed up to 5.0V, and IIH remains within ±1µA at VIN = 5.0V, confirming safe long-term operation without external protection circuitry.
What is the maximum recommended trace length for B0–B9 outputs without external termination?
With the integrated 22Ω series resistor, traces up to 10 cm (4 inches) on FR-4 with 50Ω characteristic impedance maintain <10% overshoot at 133MHz. Beyond that length, reflection-induced jitter increases beyond the 200ps skew specification; external 33Ω series resistors are advised for >15 cm runs.
Does the PI49FCT32807QE support spread-spectrum clocking (SSC)?
No. The device has no SSC modulation capability or associated control pins. It is a fixed-frequency, zero-delay buffer optimized for deterministic phase alignment-not jitter reduction via frequency modulation. For SSC applications, a dedicated spread-spectrum clock generator must precede this buffer.
