NB6L16DT

Clock Buffers, Drivers Overview

The NB6L16DT is a low skew clock driver from the 6L series, manufactured by onsemi and distributed by Rochester Electronics. It features one true output with no inverted outputs, designed for differential input signal processing. The device is housed in an 8-pin TSSOP plastic package (PDSO8) and operates within a maximum junction temperature of 85 °C. Key electrical characteristics include differential input regulation and NECL mode compatibility, where VCC is set to 0V with VEE ranging from -2.375V to -3.465V. The component is lead-free and halide-free, adhering to specific logic integrated circuit standards for high-speed timing applications.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Feature Summary

• Low skew clock driver architecture with single true output
• Differential input regulation for noise immunity
• NECL mode operation with VEE range of -2.375V to -3.465V
• Lead-free and halide-free construction in TSSOP-8 package

Clock Buffers, Drivers Applications

• High-speed clock distribution networks
• Data receiver/driver translation buffers
• Industrial control systems requiring low skew timing

Clock Buffers, Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as Rochester Electronics rather than onsemi for this specific part number. Confirm the package type is TSSOP-8 and check the maximum operating temperature rating of 85 °C against system requirements. Ensure compliance with lead-free and halide-free specifications if required by the application environment.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-ended output derived from a differential input is required with minimal propagation delay skew. The NECL mode capability makes it suitable for legacy or specific high-speed logic families. Verify that the 85 °C thermal limit meets the ambient conditions of the target PCB layout.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Part Context

This component belongs to the 6L series of low skew clock drivers. It serves as a translator buffer between multilevel inputs and differential outputs, similar to variants like NB6L16DTR2G but distinguished by its specific suffix and distributor channel through Rochester Electronics.
