12-Output Differential Z-buffer for PCIe Gen2/3 and QPI
1682D - 11/19/15
12-OUTPUT DIFFERENTIAL Z-BUFFER FOR PCIE GEN2/3 AND QPI
1
General Description
The IDT9ZX21201 is a 12-output DB1200Z suitable for PCI-Express
Gen3 or QPI applications. The part is backwards compatible to
PCIe Gen1 and Gen2. A fixed external feedback maintains low drift
for critical QPI applications. In bypass mode, the IDT9ZX21201 can
provide outputs up to 150MHz.

3 IREF OUT
This pin establishe s the referen ce for the differential current-mode output pairs. It requires a fixed precision
resistor to ground. 475ohm is the standard value for 100ohm differential impedance. Other impedances require
different values. See data sheet.

5 H IBW_BYPM_LOBW# IN
Trilevel input to select High BW, Bypass or Low BW mode.
See PLL Operating Mode Table for Details.
6CKPWRGD_PD# IN
Notifies device to sample latched inputs and start up on first high assertion, or exit Power Down Mode on
subsequent assertions. Low enters Power Down Mode.
