MC10EP56DT

Overview

The MC10EP56DT is a differential digital multiplexer from the onsemi 10EP series, configured as two independent 2:1 selectors. It operates within a supply voltage range of ±3V to ±5.5V and functions across an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The device is housed in a 20-TSSOP surface-mount package with a width of 4.40mm. Designed for high-speed applications, it supports typical maximum frequencies exceeding 3GHz and exhibits a typical propagation delay of 360ps. The component complies with RoHS3 standards and carries an EAR99 export classification.

Feature Summary

• Features a fully differential data path architecture optimized for low skew clock or skew-sensitive signal multiplexing.
• Includes dedicated VBB pins providing an internally generated reference voltage for AC coupling re-biasing or unused input termination.
• Provides separate and common select inputs to accommodate distinct data paths and random logic requirements.
• Incorporates input safety clamping and open-default states to ensure output stability during undefined input conditions.

Applications

• Low skew clock distribution networks
• Skew-sensitive signal routing systems
• High-speed data path selection

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official documentation, as the 'D' designation typically indicates a TSSOP-20 package. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status and moisture sensitivity level prior to integration. Ensure power supply decoupling capacitors are placed close to VCC and VBB pins to maintain signal integrity at high frequencies.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring differential ECL/PECL/NECL compatibility with high-frequency performance. Consider the MC100EP56 variant if temperature compensation features are required for wider thermal stability. Evaluate the 20-TSSOP footprint constraints against available PCB real estate before finalizing the design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the onsemi 10EP family of high-speed ECL logic devices. The family specializes in differential signaling solutions for telecommunications and high-performance computing. The MC10EP56 specifically addresses multiplexing needs where signal integrity and minimal timing skew are critical operational parameters.

Replacement Considerations

The MC100EP56DTG is documented as a parameter-equivalent substitute within the same manufacturer lineup. Verify pinout compatibility and check for additional features such as temperature compensation in the replacement model.
