MDB1900ZB
Zero Delay Buffer
for PCIe (Gen1/Gen2/Gen3),
SAS, SATA, ESI, and QPI
General Description
The MDB1900ZB is a true zero delay buffer with a fully-
integrated, high-performance, low-power, and low-phase
noise programmable PLL.
The MDB1900ZB is capable of distributing the reference
clocks for PCIe (Gen1/Gen2/Gen3), SATA, ESI, SAS, SMI
®
and
Intel Quickpath Interconnect (QPI).
The MDB1900ZB
works in conjunction with a CK410B+, CK509B or
CK420BQ clock synthesizer to provide reference clocks to
multiple agents.
The MDB1900ZB is designed for Intel’s DB1900Z
specification. The Intel part designation for the
MDB1900ZB is identified as G20746-002.
Datasheets and support documentation are available on
