MC10H124L

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The MC10H124L is a quad translator designed for interfacing data and control signals between saturated logic sections and the MECL section of digital systems. It functions as a unidirectional mixed-signal translator, converting TTL input signals into differential MECL output signals. The device operates within a supply voltage range of -4.75 V to -5.25 V. It is housed in a 16-CDIP package and supports surface mount installation styles.
