MC10H600FN

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The MC10H600FN is a nine-channel TTL to ECL translator manufactured by onsemi. It converts standard TTL logic levels to ECL output levels, featuring true outputs and open-emitter configurations. The device operates within a negative supply voltage range of -4.9V to -5.46V and supports a maximum clock frequency of 250 MHz. It is housed in a 28-lead Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC) package with J-leads. The component functions as a single circuit with nine channels per circuit, designed for high-speed signal translation applications.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Provides direct translation from TTL input signals to ECL output levels without requiring external pull-up resistors due to open-emitter outputs.
• Features true output polarity, ensuring the logical state remains consistent between input and output across all nine channels.
• Supports high-speed operation suitable for demanding digital systems requiring fast signal propagation.

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• Interfacing TTL-based microprocessors or memory systems with ECL-based backplanes or high-speed logic circuits.
• Level shifting in telecommunications equipment where mixed logic families are utilized.
• High-speed data acquisition systems requiring conversion between different logic voltage standards.

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix and package variant when sourcing, as availability may vary. Confirm RoHS compliance status, as older revisions may not meet current environmental directives. Check for obsolescence notices from onsemi or authorized distributors. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability documentation. Validate that the received component matches the exact part number specifications before integration into designs.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing TTL sources with ECL destinations requiring true output polarity. Consider the 28-lead PLCC package constraints for PCB layout. Evaluate thermal management requirements given the operating temperature range. Compare against newer ECL translators if long-term supply stability is critical. Verify power supply noise immunity meets system requirements for the 250 MHz operation.
