The 9ZXL15x0D/9ZXL19x0D/9ZXL1951D devices comprise a family of 2nd-generation enhanced performance buffers for PCIe and CPU applications. The family meets all published QPI/UPI, DB2000Q and PCIe Gen1–5 jitter specifications. Devices are either 15 or 19 outputs. The devices function as both fanout (FOB) and zero-delay (ZDB) buffers. All devices meet DB2000Q and DB1900Z jitter and skew requirements.
