MC10H352PG

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The MC10H352PG is a quad CMOS to PECL translator manufactured by onsemi in a PDIP-20 package. It interfaces data between CMOS logic and PECL sections using a single +5.0 Vdc power supply. The device features CMOS compatible inputs and PECL complementary open-emitter outputs, allowing use as an inverting/non-inverting translator or differential line driver. A common strobe input forces true outputs to the PECL low state (≈ +3.2 V) and inverting outputs to the PECL high state (≈ +4.1 V). Electrical characteristics include a propagation delay of 0.4 to 2.1 ns and a maximum operating frequency of 150 MHz.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Provides voltage level translation between CMOS logic and PECL digital system sections
• Features a common strobe input to control output logic states
• Capable of functioning as a differential line driver for balanced lines

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• Interfacing CMOS logic sections with PECL sections of digital systems
• Differential transmission and reception of CMOS information via balanced twisted pair lines when used with MC10H350
• Inverting or non-inverting translation applications

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify the PDIP-20 package suffix 'P' matches the required mounting style. Confirm RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply, noting that the datasheet indicates Pb-Free packages are available under the 'G' suffix. Ensure the single +5.0 Vdc power supply requirement aligns with the target system design constraints.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing CMOS inputs with PECL outputs within a single +5.0 Vdc supply environment. Consider the 150 MHz maximum operating frequency and propagation delay specifications for high-speed signal integrity requirements. Verify that the PDIP-20 through-hole package fits the PCB layout constraints compared to PLCC alternatives.

Translators, Level Shifters Part Context

The MC10H352 belongs to the MECL 10K series of logic devices from onsemi. This series is designed for high-speed digital applications requiring specific voltage level compatibility. The MC10H352 specifically addresses the need for translating signals between different logic families without requiring multiple power supplies.

Translators, Level Shifters Replacement Considerations

Check for MC10H352FN or MC10H352FNR2 for PLCC-20 surface mount options. Verify functional equivalence with other quad translators in the MECL 10K family if pinout compatibility is not required.
