MC10EL16DG

Specialty Logic Overview

The MC10EL16DG is a 5.0 V ECL differential receiver in an SOIC-8 NB package. It features a propagation delay of 190 ps and supports PECL mode (VCC = 4.2 V to 5.7 V, VEE = 0 V) and NECL mode (VCC = 0 V, VEE = −4.2 V to −5.7 V). The device includes internally generated VBB reference voltage output for single-ended input biasing or AC coupling rebiasing. Internal input pulldown resistors are present. Power supply current is typically 22 mA. Output rise/fall times are 190 ps typical. Maximum toggle frequency is 1.75 GHz.

Specialty Logic Feature Summary

• Differential receiver with significantly faster output transition times compared to the E116 device.
• Includes an internally generated VBB pin available exclusively to this device for switching reference or AC coupling rebiasing.
• Contains internal input pulldown resistors to manage open input conditions.
• Functionally equivalent to the E116 device but with higher performance capabilities.

Specialty Logic Applications

• Interfacing with high frequency sources
• PECL mode circuit design
• NECL mode circuit design

Specialty Logic Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'DG' corresponds to the SOIC-8 NB package configuration. Confirm RoHS compliance and Pb-Free status as indicated by the 'G' suffix. Check for any discontinuation notices associated with the base part number MC10EL16, although the DG variant appears active. Ensure thermal management meets the specified junction-to-ambient resistance requirements for the target operating environment.

Specialty Logic Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing with high-frequency sources requiring fast transition times. Choose the MC10EL16 over the MC100EL16 if temperature compensation is not required, as the 100 Series contains additional temperature compensation features. Ensure the application utilizes either PECL or NECL power supply configurations within the specified voltage ranges. Verify that the VBB pin usage aligns with the single-ended input or AC coupling requirements.

Specialty Logic Part Context

The MC10EL16 is part of the onsemi 10EL/100EL series of 5.0 V ECL devices. It serves as a differential receiver functionally equivalent to the older E116 device but offers improved speed. The 10 Series lacks the temperature compensation found in the 100 Series. The device is designed for high-speed digital applications where fast propagation delays and output transitions are critical.

Specialty Logic Replacement Considerations

The datasheet notes that the MC100EL16DTR2G is discontinued. No direct substitute part numbers are explicitly listed for the MC10EL16DG in the provided text. Designers should consult onsemi representatives for alternative recommendations if the MC10EL16DG becomes unavailable.
