Diodes introduces PI6CG33A06 jitter clock generator

Diodes (DIOD) Incorporated introduces the PI6CG33A06, a six-output, ultra-low jitter clock generator designed to meet the demands of PCI Express 7.0 specification while maintaining compliance with all previous generations of the PCIe specification. Announced at PCI-SIG Developers Conference, the device is targeted for servers, networking equipment, high-performance computing systems, and data center platforms that underpin next-generation AI infrastructure. The PI6CG33A06 generates precise 25MHz and 100MHz reference clocks and achieves an RMS jitter of less than 30 femtoseconds. This is well below the PCIe 7.0 specification maximum requirement of 67fs and represents a significant improvement over the 80fs level defined by the CK440Q specification from Intel. This ultra-low jitter provides greater design margins, helping engineers manage signal integrity challenges across complex PCB traces and connectors.
