FIN1026MTCX

Overview

The FIN1026MTCX is a dual receiver designed for high-speed interconnects utilizing Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) technology. Manufactured by Fairchild Semiconductor, it translates LVDS levels to LVTTL signal levels with a typical differential input threshold of 100mV. The device supports data rates greater than 400Mbps and operates on a 3.3V power supply. It features a maximum propagation delay of 2.5ns and a maximum differential pulse skew of 0.4ns. The component is housed in a 14-lead TSSOP package, which saves space on the printed circuit board.

Feature Summary

• Translates LVDS levels to LVTTL signal levels for high-speed clock and data transfer
• Includes fail-safe protection for open-circuit, shorted, and terminated non-driven input conditions
• Provides power-off protection to ensure safe operation during power transitions

Applications

• High-speed interconnects using LVDS technology
• High-speed transfer of clock signals
• High-speed transfer of data signals

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as Fairchild Semiconductor or its successor entity ON Semiconductor, noting that part numbers may have transitioned from underscores to dashes during corporate integration. Confirm the specific suffix 'X' indicates reel packaging if required by assembly specifications. Ensure compliance with the TIA/EIA-644 LVDS standard relevant to the application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing LVDS sources with LVTTL destinations in space-constrained designs. The 14-lead TSSOP package is suitable for applications requiring reduced footprint. Consider pairing with companion drivers like the FIN1025 for complete link solutions. Verify that the 3.3V operating voltage aligns with the system's power distribution network requirements.

Part Context

The FIN1026 belongs to the family of LVDS interface components produced by Fairchild Semiconductor. It serves as the receiver counterpart to drivers such as the FIN1025. These devices are engineered to provide low electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ultra-low power dissipation even at high frequencies, making them suitable for demanding digital communication environments.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible counterparts include the FIN1022 series for crosspoint switching applications. Direct functional replacements within the same product line include the FIN1025 driver paired with other receivers. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical characteristics before substituting with generic LVDS receivers.
