Overview

Description

The RG5C172 Client Clock Driver (CKD) is a first-of-its-kind device designed specifically for Client DIMMs including:

  • Small-outline DIMMs (SODIMMs)
  • Unbuffered DIMMs (UDIMMs)
  • High-performance gaming DIMMs
  • Memory down applications

The CKD buffers the clock between the host controller and DRAM, which is required for DDR5 client DIMMs operating at speeds of 6400MT/s and higher. The CKD supports speeds up to 7200MT/s.

This clock driver has I²C and I³C sideband access to enable asynchronous control and provides access to internal control words for configuring device features and adapting to different SODIMM and UDIMM configurations and memory down applications.

Features

  • Clock rates up to 3600MHz
  • Supports power-down modes to conserve power
  • Provides access to internal control words for configuring device features and adapting to different UDIMM/SODIMM and system applications
  • I²C/I³C basic sideband access for asynchronous control
  • Package: 2.3mm x 5.8mm 35-FCBGA
