MC10EP32DG

Counter Dividers Overview

The MC10EP32DG is a divide-by-2 divider integrated circuit manufactured by onsemi, housed in an SOIC-8N B package. It features differential CLK inputs and supports PECL mode with VCC ranging from 3.0 V to 5.5 V (VEE = 0 V) and NECL mode with VEE ranging from -3.0 V to -5.5 V (VCC = 0 V). The device exhibits a typical propagation delay of 350 ps and operates at maximum frequencies exceeding 4 GHz. It includes an asynchronous reset pin asserted on the rising edge and an internally generated VBB reference voltage for single-ended or AC-coupled input configurations.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Supports both PECL and NECL operating modes across wide supply voltage ranges
• Features an internal VBB reference voltage output for flexible single-ended or AC-coupled input interfacing
• Includes an asynchronous reset function to synchronize multiple devices within a system
• Provides safety clamps on inputs that default the Q output to LOW when inputs are open

Counter Dividers Applications

• High-speed clock signal division and frequency synthesis
• Synchronization of multiple divider circuits in complex digital systems
• Differential-to-single-ended interface conversion using the VBB reference

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm the package type, as the base part number covers multiple variants including TSSOP and DFN packages. Confirm RoHS compliance status and check for any discontinuation notices, as the datasheet indicates certain versions may not be recommended for new designs. Ensure thermal management requirements align with the SOIC-8N B package specifications during integration.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high-frequency divide-by-2 functionality with differential ECL inputs. Consider the MC100EP32 variant if temperature compensation is required for stable performance across varying environmental conditions. Evaluate the available packaging options against board space constraints and assembly methods, ensuring compatibility with the chosen power supply configuration.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This device belongs to the MC10EP series of ECL logic dividers designed for high-speed digital applications. It integrates a single divide-by-2 counter with differential clock inputs and dedicated reset control. The family provides flexibility through configurable input interfaces and robust ESD protection, making it suitable for demanding telecommunications and data processing environments.

Counter Dividers Replacement Considerations
