Overview

The 8V41N012A is a PLL-based clock generator specifically designed for Cavium Networks Octeon II processors. This high performance device is optimized to generate the processor core reference clock, the PCI Express, sRIO, XAUI, SerDes reference clocks, and the clocks for both the Gigabit Ethernet MAC and PHY. The output frequencies are generated from a 25MHz external input source or an external 25MHz parallel resonant crystal. The industrial temperature range of the 8V41N012A supports telecommunication, networking, and storage requirements.
