CLC014AJE/NOPB

Specialized Overview

The CLC014AJE/NOPB is an obsolete adaptive cable equalizer designed for high-speed data recovery over coaxial and twisted-pair cables. It operates on a single +5V or -5.2V supply with a typical current of 58 mA, consuming 290 mW. The device automatically equalizes signals attenuated by up to 40 dB at 200 MHz, supporting lengths up to 300 meters of Belden 8281 or 120 meters of Cat 5 UTP. It handles data rates from less than 50 Mbps to 650 Mbps, achieving residual jitter of 180 pspp at 270 Mbps through 200 meters of coaxial cable. The component features differential ECL-compatible outputs, carrier detection, output mute, and an eye monitor, housed in a 14-pin SOIC package.

Specialized Feature Summary

• Automatic adaptive equalization for coaxial and twisted-pair transmission lines
• Integrated carrier detection and output mute functionality
• Buffered output eye monitor for signal verification
• Single-ended or differential input compatibility

Specialized Applications

• SMPTE 270M/259M Serial Digital Interfaces (SDI)
• Serial digital video routing and distribution systems
• Data recovery equalization for ATM and CAD networks
• Industrial video network repeaters

Specialized Procurement Notes

This component is classified as obsolete by Texas Instruments. Verify availability through authorized distributors or secondary market suppliers. Confirm the specific revision level and manufacturing date code against project requirements. Ensure compliance with RoHS standards as indicated by the NOPB suffix. Cross-reference pinouts and electrical characteristics with the official SNLS010E datasheet before integration.

Specialized Selection Notes

Select this device for applications requiring automatic equalization of long-distance serial digital video or data links. It is suitable for environments needing low jitter performance and immunity to pathological patterns. Consider the 14-pin SOIC package constraints and thermal dissipation requirements. Evaluate system needs for carrier detect and mute logic integration. Verify that the required cable attenuation does not exceed the specified 40 dB limit at 200 MHz.

Specialized Part Context

The CLC014 belongs to the CLC series of cable interface components from Texas Instruments. It is often paired with drivers like the CLC006 and retimers like the CLC114 or CLC16 in complete transmission line repeater designs. This specific part number represents the lead-free, non-phosphorus variant of the standard CLC014, adhering to environmental compliance standards while maintaining identical functional specifications.

Specialized Replacement Considerations

As an obsolete component, direct replacements are limited. Review the CLC014A or other legacy TI cable equalizers for potential functional equivalents. Consult Texas Instruments for updated product recommendations or alternative solutions for modern high-speed data recovery applications.
