15-output DB1900Z Low-Power Derivative
9ZXL1550
DATASHEET
Description
The 9ZXL1550 is a DB1900Z derivative buffer utilizing
Low-Power HCSL (LP-HCSL) outputs to increase edge rates
on long traces, reduce board space, and reduce power
consumption more than 50% from the original 9ZX21501. It is
pin-compatible to the 9ZXL1530 and has the output
terminations integrated. It is suitable for PCI-Express
Gen1/2/3 or QPI/UPI applications, and uses a fixed external
feedback to maintain low drift for demanding QPI/UPI
applications.
Features/Benefits
•
LP-HCSL outputs; up to 90% IO power reduction, better
•

•
•
signal integrity over long traces
Direct connect to 85Ω transmission lines; eliminates 60
termination resistors, saves 103mm
2
area
Pin compatible to the 9ZXL1530; easy upgrade to reduced
board space
64-VFQFPN package; smallest 15 output Z-buffer
Fixed feedback path: ~ 0ps input-to-output delay
9 Selectable SMBus addresses; multiple devices can share
same SMBus segment
Separate VDDIO for outputs; allows maximum power
savings
PLL or bypass mode; PLL can dejitter incoming clock
100MHz & 133.33MHz PLL mode; legacy QPI/UPI support
Selectable PLL BW; minimizes jitter peaking in downstream
PLL's
Spread spectrum compatible; tracks spreading input clock
for EMI reduction
SMBus Interface; unused outputs can be disabled
Recommended Application
Buffer for Romley, Grantley and Purley Servers

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses above the ratings listed below can cause permanent damage to the 9ZXL1550. These ratings, which are standard
values for IDT commercially rated parts, are stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device at these or any other
conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum
rating conditions for extended periods can affect product reliability. Electrical parameters are guaranteed only over the
recommended operating temperature range.
