MC10H160M

Overview

The MC10H160M is a 12-bit parity generator-checker from the MECL 10H series, manufactured by onsemi. It operates with a supply voltage range of -4.9V to -5.46V and features a typical propagation delay of 2.5 ns. The device provides single-ended outputs and functions as a functional pin duplication of the standard 10K family part, offering improved noise margins. It is housed in a 16-SOEIAJ package.

Feature Summary

• Generates odd parity output when an odd number of inputs are high
• Compatible with MECL 10K logic families
• Includes voltage compensated design for stable operation
• Unconnected inputs are pulled to logic low

Applications

• Data transmission systems requiring parity checking
• Memory modules utilizing error detection codes
• Digital communication interfaces needing signal integrity verification

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required for specific environmental regulations. Check current availability as product lifecycle status may vary. Ensure proper handling procedures for ESD-sensitive devices during installation.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring fast parity generation with MECL compatibility. Consider the 16-pin SOEIAJ package for surface mount assembly needs. Evaluate power dissipation requirements against system thermal constraints. Verify input voltage levels match the specified operating range for reliable performance.

FAQ

How does the MC10H160 handle unconnected inputs?

Unconnected inputs are internally pulled to a logic low state, allowing the device to perform parity detection and generation for configurations using fewer than 12 bits.

What is the relationship between MC10H160 and MC10K160?

The MC10H160 is a functional pin duplication of the standard 10K family part, providing 100% improvement in propagation delay without increasing power-supply current.
