PL133-37TC

Clock buffers, drivers, and other clock timing components are essential pieces of any electrical system, but the task of selecting the right device can be daunting. The PL133-37TC Clock Buffer is a reliable and cost effective solution for a variety of applications in industrial, consumer, and communications usage.

The PL133-37TC is a low-powered low-skew differential clock driver capable of driving up to 7 single-ended loads from a differential LVDS input. The driver can also be used in applications with an LVPECL or LVTTL input, and the configuration can be changed with a simple DIP switch setting. The PL133-37TC supports data rates up to 200 MHz with 1ps of jitter thanks to its integrated PLL circuit, making it ideal for high-speed applications requiring low latency and high-fidelity output.

The PL133-37TC clock buffer device combines the elements of an LVDS input buffer, an LVDS to Single Ended output driver, and a PLL Jitter Attenuator in a compact 8-pin package, providing a low-power, low-skew, low-jitter solution for driving up to seven outputs. It features differential half-clock output enable and differential full-clock output enable options, as well as an adjustable clock-out switch that makes it possible to dynamically adjust the output clock frequency. The device provides a selectable output voltage range from 1.8V to 3.3V and is designed to be compatible with a range of standard LVDS and LVPECL/LVTTL inputs.

The PL133-37TC\'s low power consumption is achieved through its small signal switching transistors, and its supply voltage is adjustable to accommodate a variety of voltages. It consumes a maximum power of 500 mW, making it an ideal solution for power-sensitive applications. The device has an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for use in both commercial and industrial settings.

The PL133-37TC \'s working principle is based on PLL (Phase Locked Loop) technology. The PLL enables the device to synchronize two signals to each other, achieving superior performance and accuracy in the process. The PLL circuit locks the output frequency to a reference frequency through a feedback loop, eliminating drift and eliminating frequency jitter. In addition, the PLL helps to minimize losses, since the frequency can be switched without the need for additional synchronizing circuits.

The PL133-37TC is a versatile device that can be used in a variety of applications, including broadcast video, cellular networks, computers and servers, and video surveillance systems. Its excellent performance, low power consumption, and adjustable voltage range make it a reliable and cost effective solution for clock driver applications.
