MC10159L

Overview

The MC10159L is a quad two-channel multiplexer from the onsemi 10H series, designed for ECL logic applications. It features common enable and data select inputs to manage four independent 2:1 multiplexing circuits. The device operates with dual power supplies ranging from -4.94V to -5.46V. It is housed in a 16-CDIP package suitable for through-hole mounting. The component supports an operating temperature range of 0°C to 75°C and has a moisture sensitivity level of 3.

Feature Summary

• Integrates four independent 2-to-1 multiplexing channels within a single integrated circuit
• Utilizes shared control lines for common enable and data selection across all channels
• Engineered for high-speed digital switching using ECL logic family standards
• Provides robust signal routing capabilities for complex digital system architectures

Applications

• High-speed digital signal routing systems
• ECL-based logic circuit design
• Data selection networks in telecommunications equipment
• Test and measurement instrumentation requiring fast switching

Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compliance status as this specific part number is listed as non-compliant in official distributor records. Confirm package integrity upon receipt, as historical reports indicate potential packaging damage. Ensure supply chain sources provide valid traceability documentation. Check current availability status as the component may be discontinued or subject to limited production runs. Validate pinout compatibility with existing PCB footprints before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring multiple independent signal paths controlled by shared select lines. The ECL interface necessitates compatible power supply rails and termination strategies. Consider the through-hole CDIP package constraints during mechanical layout planning. Evaluate thermal requirements against the specified operating temperature range. Ensure the application benefits from the low propagation delay inherent to the 10H series technology.

Part Context

This device belongs to the onsemi 10H series of high-speed ECL logic components. It serves as a functional equivalent to other quad multiplexers in the industry but is distinct due to its specific pinout and electrical characteristics. The 10H series is known for performance in demanding digital environments. This particular variant focuses on providing four separate switching channels without individual channel enables.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible alternatives within the same ECL logic family. Verify that any substitute maintains the quad 2:1 multiplexer configuration. Ensure voltage levels and speed specifications match the original design requirements. Confirm package dimensions align with existing board space constraints.
