MAX9320BEUA+

Clock Buffers, Drivers Overview

The MAX9320BEUA+ is a low-skew, 1-to-2 differential clock and data driver manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. Designed for precision clock distribution, it reproduces the input signal at two differential outputs with minimal skew. The device supports PECL/LVPECL operation with a +3.0V to +5.5V supply range and ECL/LVECL operation with a -3.0V to -5.5V supply. Key electrical parameters include a typical propagation delay of 208ps, part-to-part skew of 20ps, and output-to-output skew of 6ps. It operates within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is housed in an 8-uMAX/uSOP package.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Feature Summary

• Low-skew performance with 20ps part-to-part skew and 6ps output-to-output skew
• Supports multiple logic families including PECL, LVPECL, ECL, and LVECL
• Ultra-low propagation delay of 208ps (typical)
• ESD protection exceeding 2kV (Human Body Model)

Clock Buffers, Drivers Applications

• Precision Clock Distribution
• Low-Jitter Data Repeater
• Protection Switching

Clock Buffers, Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official documentation to confirm package type and temperature range. Confirm RoHS compliance status through manufacturer datasheets or certificates. Ensure compatibility with existing system voltage supplies before procurement.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high-speed differential clock distribution with strict skew constraints. Verify that the system power supply aligns with either the positive range (+3.0V to +5.5V) for PECL/LVPECL or negative range (-3.0V to -5.5V) for ECL/LVECL. Ensure proper termination networks are designed to maintain signal integrity.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Part Context

The MAX9320B series serves as a low-skew differential driver for clock and data distribution. The BEUA+ variant specifically denotes the 8-pin TSSOP/USOP package version suitable for surface-mount assembly. It functions as a fanout buffer, providing one differential input to two differential outputs.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Replacement Considerations

The MAX9320B is identified as an improved second source for the MC10EP11D. Verify pinout and electrical specifications against original designs when substituting.
