Low Skew 1 to 2 Clock Buffer
74FCT38072S
DATASHEET
Description
The 74FCT38072S is a low skew, single input to two output,
clock buffer. The 74FCT38072S has best in class additive
phase Jitter of sub 50 fsec.
IDT makes many non-PLL and PLL based low skew output
devices as well as Zero Delay Buffers to synchronize clocks.

Pin Description
External Components
A minimum number of external components are required for proper operation. A decoupling capacitor of 0.01 µF should be
connected between VDD pin and GND pin, as close to the device as possible. A 33
series terminating resistor may be used
on each clock output if the trace is longer than 1 inch.
To achieve the low output skew that the 74FCT38072S is capable of, careful attention must be paid to board layout. Essentially,
both outputs must have identical terminations, identical loads and identical trace geometries. If they do not, the output skew will
be degraded. For example, using a 30
series termination on one output (with 33
on the others) will cause at least 15 ps of
skew.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses above the ratings listed below can cause permanent damage to the 74FCT38072S. 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.
