CTS100LVEL33DG

Counter Dividers Overview

The CTS100LVEL33DG is an integrated divide-by-4 clock divider manufactured by CTS-Frequency Controls in a surface-mount SOIC8 package. It operates with LVPECL input and output signals, supporting a maximum toggle frequency of 5.0+ GHz. The device functions within a power supply range of 3.0V to 5.5V and includes an asynchronous reset pin for system synchronization. It provides a VBB reference voltage output and features internal input pull-down resistors.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Integrated divide-by-4 functionality with asynchronous reset capability
• LVPECL differential input and output signaling
• Internal input pull-down resistors for simplified interfacing
• Dedicated VBB reference voltage output for biasing applications

Counter Dividers Applications

• Clock distribution networks requiring frequency division
• Synchronization of multiple divider circuits via asynchronous reset
• High-speed digital systems utilizing LVPECL logic families

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'DG' corresponds to the SOIC8 package variant when sourcing. Confirm that the component status aligns with current availability, as datasheets may indicate it is not recommended for new designs. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints and verify that the manufacturer's specifications regarding operating temperature and supply voltage meet the target application requirements before procurement.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a divide-by-4 function with LVPECL interfaces. Consider the SOIC8 package for surface mount assembly needs. Evaluate the 5.0+ GHz toggle frequency against system speed requirements. Note the inclusion of an asynchronous reset pin if multi-device synchronization is necessary. Verify power supply constraints fall within the 3.0V to 5.5V range.

Counter Dividers Part Context

The CTS100LVEL33 series serves as a direct replacement for the On Semiconductor MC100EL/LVEL33. It is available in MLP8, MSOP8, and SOIC8 packages. The DG suffix specifically denotes the SOIC8 package option. This family of devices is designed for high-speed clock management tasks within electronic systems.

Counter Dividers Replacement Considerations

The CTS100LVEL33 is documented as a direct replacement for the On Semiconductor MC100EL/LVEL33. When substituting, ensure the alternative supports LVPECL I/O and the required divide-by-4 ratio. Verify package compatibility and electrical characteristics match the original design specifications.
