MC100EPT26MNR4G

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The MC100EPT26MNR4G is a unidirectional dual-channel logic level translator manufactured by onsemi. It converts differential LVPECL or LVDS signals to LVTTL outputs, facilitating interface between high-speed ECL-family devices and lower-voltage TTL logic. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 3.6V to 3.6V, supporting a maximum propagation delay of 800ps at specified load conditions. It features a maximum low-level output current of 24mA and a maximum high-level output current of -3mA. Housed in an 8-pin TSSOP package, it functions reliably across an industrial temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Converts differential LVPECL/LVDS inputs to single-ended LVTTL outputs
• Provides dual independent translation channels for parallel signal processing
• Supports high-frequency operation with minimal propagation delay

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• Interfacing high-speed ECL clock sources with TTL-based digital systems
• Signal translation in telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• Data acquisition systems requiring LVDS to TTL conversion

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'MNR4G' against official onsemi documentation to confirm the DFN-8 tape-and-reel packaging variant, as datasheet specifications may vary slightly between package types. Ensure input signal levels match the LVPECL/LVDS requirements for proper translation. Confirm that the LVTTL output drive strength meets the receiving circuit's input impedance needs. Cross-reference the operating temperature range with system thermal constraints.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing differential high-speed ECL signals with standard TTL logic families. It is suitable for applications requiring isolated translation of two distinct signal paths. Consider the 800ps propagation delay for timing-critical designs. Ensure the power supply voltage aligns with the specified 3.6V requirement. Evaluate the TSSOP/DFN package availability based on PCB layout constraints and thermal management requirements.

Translators, Level Shifters Part Context

This part belongs to the MC100EPT series of logic level translators from onsemi. The series focuses on bridging gaps between different logic families, specifically targeting ECL-to-TTL conversions. These components are designed for high-speed data transmission environments where signal integrity and fast transition times are critical. The MC100EPT26 specifically addresses dual-channel needs, reducing board space compared to using individual single-channel converters.

Translators, Level Shifters Replacement Considerations

MC100EPT26DTG is a documented alternative offering identical logical functionality in a TSSOP-8 package.
