MC10H164FNG

Overview

The MC10H164FNG is a high-speed ECL multiplexer manufactured by onsemi, designed for differential signal routing in demanding electronic environments. It operates within a supply voltage range of -4.2 V to -5.7 V and supports data rates up to 800 MHz. The device features a propagation delay of 0.8 ns at 5 V and draws a typical operating current of 35 mA. Packaged in a 20-PLCC (9x9 mm) surface-mount format, it functions as an 8-to-1 line selector with true outputs, suitable for applications requiring low latency and high reliability.

Feature Summary

• Supports high-frequency operation up to 800 MHz with minimal signal distortion
• Provides eight selectable input lines routed to a single true output
• Operates reliably across standard commercial temperature ranges

Applications

• High-speed digital communication systems
• Data acquisition equipment requiring fast signal switching
• Test and measurement instrumentation

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized channels due to end-of-life status. Confirm RoHS compliance documentation matches specific manufacturing lots. Ensure storage conditions adhere to moisture sensitivity level requirements to prevent package damage during reflow soldering processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring fast, reliable multiplexing of multiple data sources into a single path. Consider the PLCC package constraints for PCB layout and thermal management. Evaluate power consumption against system budgets given the fixed operating current characteristics inherent to ECL logic families.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MC10H series of emitter-coupled logic devices, known for superior speed performance compared to standard TTL or CMOS alternatives. The FNG suffix indicates a lead-free, halogen-free variant compliant with environmental directives. It serves legacy systems requiring robust high-speed logic interfaces.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available for this discontinued component. Designers should evaluate functional equivalents from other manufacturers that match the 20-PLCC footprint and ECL voltage specifications.
