Computing Clocks

The wide range of interfaces in today’s computing systems (PCI Express, SATA, USB, SAS, DMI, QPI, Hypertransport, etc.) demand a daunting array of tradeoffs in areas of performance, BOM cost, and board space. IDT has the longest standing relationship with the industry’s leading CPU and compute vendors to offer both the largest portfolio of reference clock solutions and value-added clocks that provide customer-optimized tradeoffs in the areas mentioned above. IDT is a leading innovator in the compute timing space with many firsts including: first to introduce low power HCSL outputs to replace standard-HCSL outputs for power savings up to 85%; first to provide dynamic frequency control for over/under clocking; first to incorporate multiple PLLs in a single device to save power and board space. IDT takes pride in offering timing devices with the best fit for computing platforms.
