MC100ELT25DG

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The MC100ELT25DG is a single-gate differential ECL to TTL translator in an 8-lead SOIC package. It operates with VCC = 4.5 V to 5.5 V, VEE = −4.2 V to −5.7 V, and GND = 0 V. The device features a typical propagation delay of 2.6 ns and a maximum toggle frequency (fmax) of 100 MHz. It provides 24 mA TTL output drive capability and includes internal input pulldown resistors.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Converts differential ECL signals to standard TTL logic levels
• Includes temperature compensation for stable performance across operating ranges
• Features an internally generated reference voltage (VBB) for single-ended input configurations
• Integrates internal input pulldown resistors to simplify circuit design

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• Clock signal translation between ECL and TTL domains
• Data signal interfacing in high-speed communication systems
• Space-constrained applications requiring low power consumption

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'D' corresponds to the SOIC-8 package configuration. Confirm that the MC100 series designation indicates the inclusion of temperature compensation features compared to the standard MC10 series. Ensure supply voltages strictly adhere to the specified negative rail requirements for proper ECL operation.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing high-speed ECL sources with TTL loads. The MC100 variant is preferred over the MC10 series if temperature stability is critical. Ensure the application supports the required dual positive and negative power supplies. Consider the 100 MHz frequency limit for clock distribution networks.

Translators, Level Shifters Part Context

This device belongs to the MC10EL/100ELT25 family of translators. It is designed for applications where space, performance, and low power are priorities. The 100 Series specifically incorporates temperature compensation to enhance reliability under varying thermal conditions compared to non-compensated variants.

Translators, Level Shifters Replacement Considerations

MC10ELT25DG serves as the non-temperature-compensated equivalent within the same package.
