Cypress Introduces Zero-Delay Buffers With Best-in-Class Performance for High-Speed Communications and Consumer Devices.


SAN JOSE San Jose, city, United States
San Jose (sănəzā`, săn hōzā`), city (1990 pop. 782,248), seat of Santa Clara co., W central Calif.; founded 1777, inc. 1850.
, Calif. -- Two New Enhanced Performance Clock Distribution Buffers Offer Industry's Highest Operating Frequency Coupled with Lowest Cycle-to-Cycle Jitter A flicker or fluctuation in a transmission signal or display image. The term is used in several ways, but it always refers to some offset of time and space from the norm. For example, in a network transmission, jitter would be a bit arriving either ahead or behind a standard clock cycle

Cypress Semiconductor Cypress Semiconductor is a semiconductor design and manufacturing company. It began operations in 1982 and listed publicly in 1986. Two years later, the company shifted over to the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol, (NYSE: CY).  Corp. (NYSE NYSE

:CY), a world leader in timing technology solutions, today announced production availability of enhanced performance Zero-Delay Buffers (ZDBs) that outperform all pin-compatible products for high-speed communications and consumer devices. The CY23EP05 and CY23EP09 phase-locked loop A phase-locked loop or phase lock loop (PLL) is an electronic control system that generates a signal that has a fixed relation to the phase of a "reference" signal. A phase-locked loop circuit responds to both the frequency and the phase of the input signals, automatically  (PLL PLL - phase-locked loop ) clock buffers offer the highest operating frequency, the lowest cycle-to-cycle jitter and the lowest output-to-output skew (1) The misalignment of a document or punch card in the feed tray or hopper that prohibits it from being scanned or read properly.

 on the market. The products add to Cypress's portfolio of timing solutions for applications such as multi service routers and switches, basestations, plasma displays and set-top boxes.

Cypress's enhanced performance ZDBs offer powerful performance, with a 220-MHz maximum operating frequency and 3.3- or 2.5-volt operating voltage. In addition, the CY23EP05 and CY23EP09 offer best-in-class performance with 55-ps cycle-to-cycle jitter and 100-ps output-to-output skew. Both of the enhanced performance ZDBs are available in lead-free packages.

"The introduction of these enhanced performance Zero-Delay Buffers demonstrates Cypress's commitment to pushing the performance envelope for timing solutions," said Wendy Zhou, marketing manager for Cypress's Timing Distribution Products. "Cypress was first to market with zero-delay buffers and we have extended our leadership, offering our customers the industry's broadest portfolio of timing solutions."

The following chart highlights the performance of Cypress's new ZDBs:
