DS1000M-50

Overview

The DS1000M-50 is a silicon delay line integrated circuit manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It provides five equally spaced taps with a total available delay of 50 nanoseconds. The device operates on a single 5V supply, drawing low power through CMOS technology. It is housed in an 8-pin DIP package and supports TTL/CMOS-compatible logic levels. The component ensures stable and precise time delays with accuracy for both leading and trailing edges.

Feature Summary

• Provides five equally spaced output taps for precise timing control
• Utilizes all-silicon construction for superior reliability over hybrid technology
• Features low-power CMOS design compatible with standard logic families

Applications

• Timing circuits requiring precise signal delay
• Pulse width modulation systems
• Test and measurement equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix M against official datasheets to confirm pinout and electrical characteristics. Confirm RoHS compliance status as older Maxim parts may not meet current environmental standards. Check for obsolescence notices from Analog Devices before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 50ns delay with five taps is required in an 8-pin package. Ensure the application voltage matches the 5V specification. Consider thermal management within the specified operating temperature range if used in enclosed environments.

Part Context

This part belongs to the DS1000 series of silicon delay lines, which are designed as replacements for hybrid delay lines. The series offers various delay values and packaging options, including surface mount variants, to accommodate different PCB area constraints while maintaining high precision.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible alternatives within the DS1000 family or newer Maxim Integrated delay line series. Verify that any substitute maintains the 5-tap configuration and 50ns total delay specification.
