DATASHEET
Four Output Differential Frequency Generator
for PCIe Gen3 and QPI
General Description:
The 9FG430 is a Frequency Timing Generator that provides 4
HCSL differential output pairs. These outputs support PCI-Express
Gen3, and QPI applications. The part supports Spread Spectrum
and synthesizes several additional output frequencies from either
a 14.31818 MHz crystal, a 25 MHz crystal or reference input clock.
The 9FG430 also outputs a copy of the reference clock. Complete
control of the device is available via strapping pins or via the
SMBus inteface.

Features/Benefits:
•
•
•
•
•
Pin-to-Pin with 9FG104D/Easy upgrade to PCIe Gen3
Generates common frequencies from 14.318 MHz or 25
MHz; single part supports mulitple applications
Provides copy of reference output; eleminates need for
additional crystal or oscillator
Unused outputs may be disabled in Hi-Z; save system
power
Device may be configured by SMBus and/or strap pins;
can be used in systems without SMBus

Measured from differential waveform
Slew rate is measured through the Vswing voltage range centered around differential 0V. This results in a +/-150mV window around
differential 0V.
Matching applies to rising edge rate of Clock / falling edge rate of Clock#. It is measured in a +/-75mV window centered on the
average cross point where Clock rising meets Clock# falling. The median cross point is used to calculate the voltage thresholds the
oscilloscope uses for the edge rate calculations.
Vcross is defined as voltage where Clock = Clock# measured on a component test board and only applies to the differential rising
edge (i.e. Clock rising and Clock# falling).
The total variation of all Vcross measurements in any particular system. Note that this is a subset of V_cross_min/max (V_cross
absolute) allowed. The intent is to limit Vcross induced modulation by setting V_cross_delta to be smaller than V_cross absolute.
