Another piece of a complete timing tree is the need for silicon clock ICs. That is another family that Pericom has to offer to allow the customer to complete their design. Pericom’s clock IC offering is concentrated in three main categories; clock generators, clock buffers, and specialty clocks. The ability to provide both quartz and silicon timing solutions enables Pericom to provide the best timing proposal to the customers without bias to either technology. The clock generator family consists of HiFlex clock generators and PCIe and Thunderbolt clocks. The HiFlex clock generators are suitable for systems that require high frequencies and low jitter performance, whereas the PCIe and Thunderbolt clocks are specially designed for those applications and optimized for those designs. Pericom’s clock buffer family consists of zero delay buffers, hi-performance buffers, and standard buffers. These products provide multiple copies of the input frequencies and are good for fan-outs and clock signal re-driving. Pericom’s specialty clocks family is made up of jitter cleaners and TCXO clock buffers.
