MC100EP016AFAR2

Counter Dividers Overview

The MC100EP016AFAR2 is an 8-bit binary up counter from the MC100EP016A series, manufactured by onsemi. It utilizes ECL logic and features a synchronous positive edge-triggered design with asynchronous reset capability. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 3 V to 3.6 V and supports a maximum counting rate of 1.4 GHz. It is housed in a 32-lead LQFP package (7x7 mm) and functions as a single circuit component. The operational temperature range spans from -40°C to +70°C.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Synchronous positive edge-triggered architecture for precise timing control
• Asynchronous reset functionality for immediate state initialization
• High-speed binary counting performance suitable for GHz applications
• Integrated internal input clamping for signal stability

Counter Dividers Applications

• High-frequency digital signal processing systems
• Rapid data sequencing and address generation circuits
• ECL-based timing and synchronization modules

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'FAR2' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm package type and environmental compliance status. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the 32-LQFP configuration. Confirm RoHS status through current datasheets, as legacy variants may differ. Validate supply chain authenticity directly with authorized distributors or onsemi channels.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component when high-speed synchronous counting is required within ECL logic families. The 1.4 GHz rating supports demanding frequency applications. Consider the 32-LQFP package constraints for thermal management and board space. Verify that the 3 V to 3.6 V supply requirement aligns with the system power architecture before integration.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This part belongs to the MC100EP016A family of high-performance ECL counters. It serves as a successor or variant to earlier models like the MC100EP016FA, which has been discontinued. The series is designed for applications requiring fast, reliable binary counting in harsh electrical environments typical of ECL operations.

Counter Dividers Replacement Considerations

The MC100EP016FA is listed as a parameter-equivalent replacement option. Verify pinout and electrical specifications match exactly before substitution. Check for any updates in manufacturing processes or material composition between the active and obsolete parts.
