The CY2304 is a 3.3V zero delay buffer designed to distribute high-speed clocks in PC, workstation, datacom, telecom, and other high-performance applications.

The part has an on-chip phase-locked loop (PLL) that locks to an input clock presented on the REF pin. The PLL feedback is required to be driven into the FBK pin, and can be obtained from one of the outputs. The input-to-output skew is guaranteed to be less than 250 ps, and output-to-output skew is guaranteed to be less than 200 ps.

The CY2304 has two banks of two outputs each.

The CY2304 PLL enters a power-down state when there are no rising edges on the REF input. In this mode, all outputs are three-stated and the PLL is turned off, resulting in less than
25 A of current draw.

Multiple CY2304 devices can accept the same input clock and distribute it in a system. In this case, the skew between the outputs of two devices is guaranteed to be less than 500 ps.

The CY2304 is available in two different configurations, as shown in the "Available Configurations" table. The CY23041 is the base part, where the output frequencies equal the reference if there is no counter in the feedback path.

The CY23042 allows the user to obtain Ref and 1/2x or 2x frequencies on each output bank. The exact configuration and output frequencies depends on which output drives the feedback pin.
