MC100EP16VADT

Specialty Logic Overview

The MC100EP16VADT is a high-performance ECL differential receiver/driver from onsemi's 100EP series, housed in an 8-TSSOP package. It operates within a supply voltage range of 3.0V to 5.5V and supports temperatures from -40°C to +85°C. Key electrical parameters include a typical propagation delay of 220ps and a maximum frequency exceeding 4GHz. The device features a typical operating current of 38mA, with output currents up to 50mA (high) and 100mA (low). It includes an internal reference voltage (VBB) for biasing and input safety clamping.

Specialty Logic Feature Summary

• High-speed differential signaling with typical propagation delay of 220ps
• Integrated VBB pin for single-ended input biasing or AC coupling
• Input open-circuit default state forces Q output low
• Safety clamping on inputs to protect against overvoltage

Specialty Logic Applications

• High-speed data transmission interfaces
• Signal processing systems requiring ECL compatibility
• Frequency synthesizers and clock distribution networks

Specialty Logic Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'VADT' against the official datasheet to confirm package type and temperature grade. Ensure design compliance with ECL power supply requirements and decoupling standards for the VBB pin. Check for RoHS and REACH status if required by your manufacturing process.

Specialty Logic Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing with high-frequency sources requiring fast transition times compared to standard EL16 devices. The MC100EP16VADT offers temperature compensation benefits over the base MC10EP16 model. Consider the 8-TSSOP package constraints and thermal management needs for surface mount assembly.

Specialty Logic Part Context

Part of the onsemi 100EP family, designed for superior performance over legacy EL16/LVEL16 devices. It serves as a bus transceiver for 3.3V/5V ECL applications. The device integrates both driver and receiver functions in a single channel configuration, optimizing board space for dense logic designs.

Specialty Logic Replacement Considerations

MC10EP16DTG is a compatible alternative within the same family, though it lacks the temperature compensation features of the MC100EP16 series. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution.
