Programmable clock generator supports PCIe Gen7 timing

SiTime introduces the Chorus™ 2 programmable clock generator, designed for AI, high-performance computing, networking, and industrial platforms. This innovative device consolidates multiple oscillators or clock signals into a single component, offering up to 20 custom configurations and up to 8 or 12 independent outputs with varied frequencies. Notable features include support for four independent spread spectrum clocks, PCIe Gen7 compliance, and exceptional jitter performance below 110 fs at 156.25 MHz. Chorus™ 2 aims to streamline board space, power consumption, and timing complexity while enabling seamless pin-to-pin replacement in existing designs.
