MC100EPT20DTG

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The MC100EPT20DTG is a single-channel, unidirectional logic level translator manufactured by onsemi. It converts LVTTL or LVCMOS input signals to differential LVPECL outputs. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 3.0 V to 3.6 V with ground at 0 V. Key electrical parameters include a typical propagation delay of 350 ps and a maximum input clock frequency exceeding 1 GHz. The component utilizes a TSSOP-8 surface-mount package.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Converts single-ended LVTTL/LVCMOS inputs to differential PECL outputs
• Incorporates temperature compensation for stable performance across operating temperatures
• Features PNP TTL input structure to minimize loading on the driving circuit
• Q output defaults to HIGH state when the input signal is open

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• High-speed digital communication systems requiring interface translation
• Clock distribution networks utilizing differential signaling
