IDT74FCT38074DCGI

The IDT74FCT38074DCGI is a 3.3V CMOS 1-to-4 clock driver from Renesas Electronics, part of the 74FCT38074 family of high-speed clock distribution buffers. This device accepts a single-ended clock input and provides four buffered outputs with low output-to-output skew, making it suitable for synchronizing multiple clock domains. The CMOS process enables fast propagation delay while operating from a 3.3V supply, and the SOP package supports compact surface‑mount layout with a conventional footprint.

Typical applications include clock fanout for FPGAs, ASICs, microprocessors, and memory subsystems in industrial automation, networking equipment, test and measurement instruments, and embedded computing platforms where uniform clock edges are critical. Procurement specialists should assess the long-term availability of this device, as legacy IDT clock drivers may face diminishing supply; checking Renesas’s product lifecycle status is recommended for new designs and sustainment programs. For high-reliability deployments, verify whether industrial-temperature or screened variants are offered through alternative ordering codes, since the DCGI suffix denotes a commercial temperature grade in a RoHS-compliant SOIC package.
