The VSC8479 is a 1:16, 16:1 transceiver with integrated clock and data recovery unit (CDR) and clock multiplier unit (CMU) that provides the most comprehensive solution available in the industry. Continuous frequency of operation spans from 9.953 Gbps to 11.3 Gbps over full temperature range. Targeted for XFP Host ASIC SERDES, 300-pin module and DWDM line card applications, the VSC8479 provides industry leading optimization of power, performance, programmability, price and feature integration. The 1.15 W total power dissipation enables 300-pin MSA module vendors to provide performance and functionality advantages while dropping the overall power dissipation of their existing modules. The VSC8479 is a perfect choice for XFP motherboards with proven inter-operability with all major XFP module vendors.
Microchip's complimentary and confidential MicroCHECK design review service, which offers insight from the initial concept to the final PCB layout, is available to customers who are using our products in their projects. You can confidently submit your design materials in a secure and private setting, and our expert engineers will provide individualized feedback to enhance your design. MicroCHECK service is subject to Microchip's Program Terms and Conditions and requires a myMicrochip account.
YG GROUP supports reliable sourcing through quality controls and compliance documentation. Please confirm product requirements, applicable certifications and supporting documents before ordering.
VSC8479 is an authentic electronic component manufactured by Microchip, categorized under Communication & Networking ICs. It is supplied in the standard manufacturer-specified package footprint, providing industry-standard mechanical dimensions and terminal configurations for board-level assembly. Full pinout configurations, physical footprint drawings, and rated operating tolerances are documented in the official VSC8479 datasheet above.
Electronic component spot-market pricing for VSC8479 fluctuates based on real-time global availability, production date codes, minimum order quantities (MOQ), and packaging formats (e.g., Reel, Tube, Tray). Using an RFQ ensures you receive accurate, real-time volume pricing tied to verified, traceable inventory rather than stale catalog estimates.
Lead times for VSC8479 depend on whether stock is dispatched from our central hub or regional franchise partners. Ready-to-ship inventory typically leaves the warehouse within 1–3 business days following quality inspection, while factory-direct or back-ordered allocations are confirmed with an estimated ship date upon RFQ reply.
