MC10EPT20DR2

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The MC10EPT20DR2G is a single-gate translator converting 3.3 V LVTTL/LVCMOS inputs to differential LVPECL outputs, requiring only +3.3 V and ground. It features a typical propagation delay of 390 ps and supports maximum input clock frequencies exceeding 1 GHz. Operating within a supply range of 3.0 V to 3.6 V, it utilizes PNP TTL inputs for minimal loading and defaults the Q output HIGH when the input is open. The device is housed in an SOIC-8 NB package.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Converts 3.3 V LVTTL/LVCMOS signals to differential LVPECL levels using a single gate architecture.
• Provides high-speed performance with typical propagation delays of 390 ps and support for clock frequencies above 1 GHz.
• Incorporates PNP TTL inputs to minimize loading on driving circuits.

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• High-speed digital circuit translation
• Clock distribution networks
• Low power space-constrained designs

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'DR2' corresponds to the Tape & Reel packaging configuration as listed in the official documentation. Confirm that the component meets RoHS compliance standards and is lead-free. Ensure the selected package variant matches the required PCB footprint specifications for the SOIC-8 NB form factor.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring efficient conversion between 3.3 V logic families and differential PECL signaling. Consider the compact SOIC-8 NB package for space-limited designs. Evaluate thermal requirements against the junction-to-ambient resistance values provided in the datasheet for the specific airflow conditions.

Translators, Level Shifters Part Context

This device belongs to the MC10EP/100EP family of translators manufactured by onsemi. While the standard MC10EPT20 lacks temperature compensation, the 100 Series variants include this feature. The DR2 suffix indicates a tape and reel shipping format, distinct from tube-packaged equivalents like the DG suffix.

Translators, Level Shifters FAQ

What is the default state of the Q output if the input is left open?

The Q output will default to a HIGH state when the input is open.

Does this device include temperature compensation?

No, the MC10EPT20 does not contain temperature compensation; this feature is available in the 100 Series devices such as the MC100EPT20.
