MC10EP08D

Gates And Inverters - Multi-Function, Configurable Overview

The MC10EP08D is a differential XOR/XNOR gate from the onsemi MC10/100EP08 series, designed for applications requiring high-speed AC performance. It operates in PECL mode with VCC ranging from 3.0 V to 5.5 V (VEE = 0 V) and NECL mode with VEE from −3.0 V to −5.5 V (VCC = 0 V). The device features a typical propagation delay of 250 ps and supports maximum frequencies exceeding 3 GHz. It includes safety clamps on inputs, ensuring the Q output defaults LOW when inputs are open or at VEE. The component is available in SOIC-8 NB and TSSOP-8 packages.

Gates And Inverters - Multi-Function, Configurable Feature Summary

• Supports both PECL and NECL operating voltage ranges for flexible power supply configurations.
• Features internal safety clamps that force the Q output to a default LOW state during open input conditions.
• Provides differential XOR/XNOR logic functionality optimized for high-frequency signal processing.

Gates And Inverters - Multi-Function, Configurable Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against the ordering information table. The MC10EP08DG and MC10EP08DR2G variants are discontinued and not recommended for new designs. Confirm package type availability, as the DTG suffix indicates TSSOP-8 packaging while DG indicates SOIC-8 NB. Ensure compliance with RoHS standards and check moisture sensitivity levels appropriate for the selected package before procurement.

Gates And Inverters - Multi-Function, Configurable Selection Notes

Select this component for designs prioritizing minimal propagation delay and high maximum frequency operation. Consider the thermal resistance values provided for the specific package when designing heat dissipation strategies. Verify that the input voltage swing requirements align with the source driver capabilities within the specified common-mode range. Evaluate the trade-off between speed and power consumption based on the supply current characteristics at the target operating temperature.

Gates And Inverters - Multi-Function, Configurable Part Context

This part belongs to the MC10/100EP08 family of differential logic gates manufactured by onsemi. The 100 series variants include temperature compensation, whereas the standard EP08 does not. The device serves as a fundamental building block for complex digital systems requiring precise differential signaling and fast switching times.

Gates And Inverters - Multi-Function, Configurable Replacement Considerations

The MC10EP08DG and MC10EP08DR2G are discontinued versions of this device. Designers should consult onsemi representatives for updated alternatives if these specific suffixes were previously used.

Gates And Inverters - Multi-Function, Configurable FAQ

What is the default output state when the inputs are left open?

The Q output will default to a LOW state when the inputs are open or at VEE due to the internal safety clamp design.

Does the MC10EP08D include temperature compensation?

No, only the 100 Series devices (e.g., MC100EP08) contain temperature compensation. The standard MC10EP08 does not.
