LMKDB1104: clock buffer solution for PCI express to SATA/SSD

Part Number: LMKDB1104
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LMKDB1102

Tool/software:

Dears,

    My client is looking for a clock buffer for PCI express to SATA/SSD conversion. The input is the server motherboard clock, and the output type is HCSL with 2 outputs. If there are no 2 outputs, 4 outputs are also acceptable. Do TI have any suitable recommendations?

  • Hi Jon, 
    Yes, LMKDB1102 is an option. 
    Though note the outputs of this device are LP-HCSL which is low power HCSL. 
    This just eliminates the need for the external 50Ohm to GND termination as this is built into the Tx but there is no difference in swing or VCM. 

    Best regards, 

    Vicente
