MC10H605FNG

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The MC10H605FNG is a registered Hex ECL to TTL translator manufactured by onsemi. It features six differential ECL data inputs and a differential clock input, converting signals to balanced TTL outputs with 24 mA sink/source capabilities. The device operates on dual power supplies (VCCT = +5.0 V ±10%; VEE = −5.20 V ±5%). Key electrical parameters include a typical propagation delay of 4.3 ns (CLK to Q, single-ended) and a part-to-part skew of 2.0 ns. It utilizes a PLCC-28 package.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Differential ECL data and clock inputs for high-speed signal reception
• TTL outputs with balanced 24 mA sink/source drive capability
• On-chip registers simplify synchronization between boards
• Asynchronous Master Reset pin common to all flip-flops

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• HPPI bus type board-to-board interface receive function
• Synchronizing data transfer between digital system sections
• Interfacing MECL 10H logic levels with saturated logic sections

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against current manufacturer documentation before procurement. Confirm that the 'G' suffix denotes Pb-Free packaging status as per the latest datasheet revision. Ensure compatibility with the required PLCC-28 footprint and check for any recent Product Change Notices or End-of-Life announcements from onsemi regarding this component.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing high-speed ECL sources with TTL destinations requiring registered data storage. The dual-supply architecture supports standard MECL 10H logic levels. Consider the 24 mA output drive strength for transmission line applications. Verify that the 2.0 ns skew specification meets the timing requirements of the target system architecture.

Translators, Level Shifters Part Context

This device belongs to the MC10/100H series of registered translators. It serves as a functional bridge between the MECL section and saturated logic sections of digital systems. The H605 variant specifically provides six-bit conversion with internal latching, distinguishing it from non-registered translators in the same family.

Translators, Level Shifters FAQ

How should the VBB reference voltage be connected for single-ended applications?

For single-ended applications, the VBB output should be connected to the inverted inputs (Dn or CLK) and bypassed to ground via a 0.01 µF capacitor.

What is the function of the Master Reset (MR) pin?

The MR pin is an asynchronous ECL level input common to all flip-flops. A HIGH signal on this pin forces all Q outputs to the LOW state.
