MC10EL16DR2

Specialty Logic Overview

The MC10EL16DR2 is a 5.0 V ECL differential receiver manufactured by onsemi, functionally equivalent to the E116 device but offering higher performance capabilities with significantly faster output transition times. It operates in 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 features a propagation delay of 190 ps, internal input pulldown resistors, and an internally generated VBB reference voltage pin for single-ended input biasing or AC coupling rebiasing. It is housed in an 8-SOIC package.

Specialty Logic Feature Summary

• Features high-speed signal reception with a typical propagation delay of 190 ps and fast output transition times suitable for interfacing with high-frequency sources.
• Includes an internally generated VBB reference voltage pin that allows unused differential inputs to be connected as a switching reference or used to rebias AC coupled inputs.
• Incorporates internal input pulldown resistors and safety clamps that force the Q output LOW under open input conditions pulled to VEE.

Specialty Logic Applications

• Interfacing with high-frequency signal sources requiring fast differential reception.
• Single-ended input configurations utilizing the VBB pin as a switching reference voltage.
• AC coupled input circuits requiring rebiasing via the internal VBB supply.

Specialty Logic Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm the package type and shipping quantity. The DR2G suffix indicates a SOIC-8 NB Pb-Free package shipped in tape and reel format containing 2500 units. Confirm RoHS compliance status and ensure the design accommodates the required thermal management for the SOIC-8 NB case outline during procurement planning.

Specialty Logic Selection Notes

Select this component when a differential receiver with faster output transitions than the standard E116 is required. Ensure the application supports either PECL or NECL power supply configurations within the specified voltage ranges. Consider the availability of the VBB pin if single-ended conversion or AC coupling biasing is needed in the circuit design.

Specialty Logic Part Context

This device belongs to the MC10EL/100EL series of 5.0 V ECL logic components. It serves as a direct functional replacement for the E116 device but provides enhanced performance metrics. The part is designed for robust operation in environments requiring high-speed data transmission and reliable differential signal integrity.

Specialty Logic Replacement Considerations

The MC10EL16DG is a tube-packaged alternative within the same family. For designs requiring temperature compensation, the MC100EL16 series variants are available. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical specifications against legacy E116 implementations before substitution.
