MC100EP16FDTR2

Specialty Logic Overview

The MC100EP16FDTR2 is a differential receiver/driver from the ECLinPS family, featuring reduced output swing for faster transition times compared to standard EP16 devices. It operates in PECL mode with VCC ranging from 3.0 V to 5.5 V (VEE = 0 V) and NECL mode with VEE from -3.0 V to -5.5 V (VCC = 0 V). Key electrical parameters include a typical maximum toggle frequency exceeding 4 GHz, propagation delay of 180 ps to 260 ps, and rise/fall times of 80 ps to 120 ps. The device includes an internal VBB reference voltage pin, open input default states, and safety clamps on inputs.

Specialty Logic Feature Summary

• Features significantly faster rise and fall transition times due to reduced output swings, making it suitable for high-frequency source interfacing.
• Includes temperature compensation within the 100 Series architecture.
• Provides an internally generated VBB reference voltage pin for single-ended input biasing or AC-coupled input rebiasing.
• Incorporates open input default states and safety clamps on inputs to enhance operational reliability.

Specialty Logic Applications

• Interfacing with high-frequency signal sources
• High-speed data transmission systems
• Signal processing applications requiring fast transition times

Specialty Logic Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix 'DT' corresponds to the TSSOP-8 package and 'R2' indicates tape and reel shipping configuration. Confirm the part number includes the 'G' suffix if lead-free compliance is required, as the base datasheet lists both Pb-Free and non-Pb-Free variants under similar designations. Ensure the specific revision level matches the design requirements.

Specialty Logic Selection Notes

Select this component when faster transition times than the standard EP16 are necessary for high-frequency applications. Consider the reduced output swing characteristics and ensure compatibility with the target logic family's voltage levels. Verify thermal management needs based on the TSSOP-8 package thermal resistance values provided in the datasheet.

Specialty Logic Part Context

Specialty Logic FAQ

How should the VBB pin be handled if not used?

When the VBB pin is not used, it should be left open.

What is the recommended decoupling for the VBB pin when used?

When used, the VBB pin must be decoupled from VCC via a 0.01 µF capacitor, and current sourcing or sinking must be limited to 0.5 mA.
