MC100EPT25DG

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The MC100EPT25DG is a dual differential ECL to LVTTL level translator manufactured by onsemi. It operates with a positive supply voltage (VCC) ranging from 3.0 V to 3.6 V and a negative supply voltage (VEE) ranging from -5.5 V to -3.0 V, with ground at 0 V. The device features two independent channels in an 8-pin SOIC package. Key electrical specifications include a maximum propagation delay of 2 ns and a maximum low-level output current of 24 mA. It supports single-ended input mode via the VBB pin and functions within an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Converts differential ECL signals to LVTTL logic levels for interface compatibility.
• Supports single-ended input configuration using the VBB output reference pin.
• Includes input pin clamping protection to enhance system reliability against abnormal signals.

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• Clock signal translation between ECL sources and LVTTL destinations.
• Data signal conversion in high-speed processing systems.
• Interface bridging in telecommunications equipment requiring ECL-to-LVTTL adaptation.

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'DG' confirms the SOIC-8 package variant when ordering. Confirm power supply requirements match the specified VCC and VEE ranges. Ensure thermal management aligns with the surface-mount installation type. Check for RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the target assembly. Validate that the single-channel or dual-channel configuration meets the design needs.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing ECL drivers with LVTTL receivers requiring fast switching speeds. Consider the 2 ns propagation delay for timing-critical paths. Evaluate the 24 mA drive capability against downstream load requirements. Compare against other MC100EPT2x variants if differential outputs or different logic families are needed instead of LVTTL.

Translators, Level Shifters Part Context

This part belongs to the MC100EPT2 series of ECLinPS level translators. It provides a compact solution for translating low-voltage ECL standards to TTL-compatible levels. The series is designed for applications demanding high speed and reliable signal integrity in mixed-logic environments.

Translators, Level Shifters Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include MC100EPT25DTR2G for tape-and-reel packaging. Verify pinout compatibility before replacing with other MC100EPT2x models, as output types may vary.
