MC100LVEP16DTG

Specialty Logic Overview

The MC100LVEP16DTG is a differential receiver/driver from the MC10/100LVEP16 series, packaged in an 8-lead TSSOP. It operates with VCC ranging from 2.375 V to 3.8 V and VEE at 0 V for PECL mode, or VCC at 0 V and VEE from −2.375 V to −3.8 V for NECL mode. The device features a typical propagation delay of 240 ps and supports maximum frequencies exceeding 4 GHz. It includes temperature compensation, an internally generated VBB reference voltage output, and LVDS input compatibility.

Specialty Logic Feature Summary

• Features significantly faster output transition times compared to EL16 and LVEL16 devices, making it suitable for high-frequency interfaces.
• Includes an internally generated VBB pin that serves as a switching reference voltage for single-ended inputs or AC coupling biasing.
• Provides open input default states where D pins default to LOW and D* pins default to VCC/2 when left unconnected.
• Supports both PECL and NECL operating modes within specified voltage ranges.

Specialty Logic Applications

• Interfacing with high frequency and low voltage (2.5 V) sources
• High-speed data transmission systems requiring differential signaling
• Clock distribution networks utilizing ECL logic families

Specialty Logic Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix DTG corresponds to the TSSOP-8 package configuration. Confirm RoHS compliance and Pb-Free status as indicated by the G suffix. Ensure the application environment stays within the -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range. Check for any discontinuation notices regarding this specific part number before finalizing procurement plans.

Specialty Logic Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing with 2.5 V or 3.3 V sources requiring fast transition times. Choose the MC100 variant over the MC10 version if temperature compensation is required for the application. Ensure the design accommodates the specific VBB pin usage requirements, including decoupling capacitors if the reference voltage is utilized for biasing.

Specialty Logic Part Context

This device belongs to the MC10/100LVEP16 family, which are world-class differential receiver/drivers functionally equivalent to EL16, EP16, and LVEL16 devices. The 100 Series specifically incorporates temperature compensation capabilities not present in all variants within the broader family.

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 default state of the D input pins if left floating?

The D pins will default to a LOW state when left open.
