Clock Generators, PLLs, Frequency Synthesizers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix DR2 corresponds to the tape-and-reel packaging format when sourcing. Confirm RoHS compliance status, as distributor records indicate this specific part number may not meet current RoHS standards compared to other variants in the series. Check lead times as standard delivery periods can extend significantly beyond immediate stock availability.

Clock Generators, PLLs, Frequency Synthesizers Selection Notes

Select this component when ECL interface compatibility is required at frequencies up to 2.8 GHz. Ensure the design accommodates the 2.375 V to 3.8 V supply voltage constraints. Compare against the MC100LVEL34DTR2G if LVDS/NECL/PECL input options or RoHS compliance are mandatory, noting that the LVEL variant supports different input logic families.

Clock Generators, PLLs, Frequency Synthesizers Part Context

This part belongs to the MC100LV series of high-speed ECL devices from onsemi. The series includes various clock generators, buffers, and dividers designed for demanding digital applications. The MC100LVEP34 specifically addresses the need for direct ECL-to-ECL clock generation without fractional division capabilities found in PLL-based synthesizers.

Clock Generators, PLLs, Frequency Synthesizers Replacement Considerations

The MC100LVEP34DG is a pin-compatible alternative available in a tube package. For RoHS-compliant designs requiring similar functionality but with LVDS/PECL inputs, the MC100LVEL34DTR2G is a verified substitute, though input logic differences must be evaluated.
