MC10LVEP11DG

Clock Buffers, Drivers Overview

The MC10LVEP11DG is a differential 1:2 fanout buffer manufactured by onsemi, designed for low-voltage ECL applications. It operates in PECL mode with VCC ranging from 2.375 V to 3.8 V (VEE = 0 V) and NECL mode with VEE from −2.375 V to −3.8 V (VCC = 0 V). The device features a typical propagation delay of 240 ps and supports maximum frequencies exceeding 3.0 GHz. It includes an open input default state where the Q output defaults LOW when inputs are open or at VEE. The component is housed in an SOIC-8NB package.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Feature Summary

• Differential 1:2 Fanout Buffer with LVDS Input Compatibility
• Typical Propagation Delay of 240 ps and Maximum Frequency > 3.0 GHz
• PECL Mode Operating Range: VCC = 2.375 V to 3.8 V with VEE = 0 V
• Open Input Default State: Q Output Defaults LOW with Inputs Open or at VEE

Clock Buffers, Drivers Applications

• Clock distribution networks requiring lower voltage operation
• High-speed digital systems utilizing PECL or NECL signaling
• Applications necessitating differential fanout buffering with LVDS compatibility

Clock Buffers, Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix 'DG' corresponds to the SOIC-8NB package configuration as specified in the manufacturer's ordering information table. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official documentation, noting that Pb-Free packages are available for this series. Ensure moisture sensitivity level requirements align with storage and handling protocols before procurement.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Selection Notes

Select the MC10LVEP11DG for designs requiring a 1:2 differential fanout buffer compatible with LVDS inputs. Ensure power supply constraints match the PECL range (VCC 2.375–3.8 V) or NECL range (VEE −2.375 to −3.8 V). Note that single-ended CLK input operation is limited to VCC ≥ 3.0 V in PECL mode or VEE ≤ −3.0 V in NECL mode.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Part Context

The MC10LVEP11 is part of the MC10/100LVEP11 family, which serves as a pin and functionally equivalent alternative to the EP11 device. While maintaining identical AC performance to the EP11, the LVEP11 variant is optimized for applications requiring lower voltage operation. The 100 Series within this family includes temperature compensation features.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Replacement Considerations

The MC10LVEP11DR2G and MC10LVEP11DTG are functional equivalents within the same family, differing primarily in packaging (Tape & Reel vs. Tube) rather than electrical characteristics. Verify package compatibility when substituting.
