Renesas Expands ProXO Oscillator Portfolio for High-Performance Communications, and Data Center Applications

ProXO+ Portfolio Delivers ±3ppm Frequency Stability with Programmable Frequencies up to 2.1GHz and 135fs Phase Jitter Performance

Düsseldorf, September 1, 2021 ― Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE:6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today expanded its robust timing solutions portfolio with the ProXO+ family of compact, ultra-low noise, temperature-controlled clock oscillators. The high-accuracy, high-frequency, differential oscillators are best suited for fiber optic transceiver modules, accelerator cards, smart NIC cards, and networking equipment applications.

“The ProXO+ family delivers on all counts, offering tight frequency stability, great jitter performance, and high output frequency, which are critical features for communications, cloud and compute markets,” said Bobby Matinpour, Vice President of Timing Products at Renesas. “The ProXO+ family’s high level of programmability also enables the use of a single device for numerous designs, simplifying the BOM, sourcing, and inventory management.”

Frequency stability ±3 ppm from -40C to +85C temperature range
Programmable frequencies up to 2.1 GHz
135fs typical phase jitter (12 KHz-20 MHz)
3.2 x 2.5 mm in an 8-pin plastic package
In addition to the new ProXO+ family, Renesas is expanding the popular original ProXO XF 2.5 x 2.0 mm device to include two new industry-standard 3.2 x 2.5 mm and 5.0 x 3.2 mm plastic packages.

The ProXO+ family can be combined with Renesas’ complementary clock buffers, power, and microcontroller offerings to create comprehensive solutions for a variety of applications, such as the Xilinx Kintex-7 Power and Timing, the CC-Link IE TSN, and the System on Module (SoM) Solution with RZ/G2E. Renesas’ Winning Combinations are vetted solutions engineered to help customers accelerate designs and get to market faster. Renesas offers more than 250 Winning Combinations that can be found at renesas.com/win.

Renesas provides the industry’s broadest timing portfolio to support the complete clock tree. As the market leader in silicon timing with a long history of bringing cutting-edge technologies to the markets, Renesas offers the only “one-stop-shop” for timing solutions, offering expertise and products from full-featured system solutions to simple clock tree building-block devices.

Want early design analysis without simulation?

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Traditional verification methods are failing today's complex IC designs, which require a proactive, early-stage analysis approach. A shift-left methodology addresses IP block integration challenges and the limitations of traditional simulation and ERC tools. Insight Analyzer detects hard-to-find leakage issues across power domains, enabling early analysis without full simulation. Identify inefficiencies earlier to reduce rework, improve reliability, and enhance power performance.
