SN65LVELT22DGK

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The SN65LVELT22DGK is a dual LVTTL to differential LVPECL translator manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 3 V to 3.8 V and supports data rates up to 3.5 Gb/s. The device features a propagation delay of 550 ps and functions reliably across an operating temperature range from -40 °C to +85 °C. It is housed in an 8-VSSOP package, designed for surface-mount installation.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Translates single-ended LVTTL inputs to differential LVPECL outputs
• Supports high-speed data transmission up to 3.5 Gb/s
• Operates on a single 3.3 V power supply

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• Clock distribution networks requiring level translation
• High-speed serial communication interfaces
• Data acquisition systems with mixed logic families

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix DGK confirms the 8-VSSOP package variant when ordering. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation prior to integration. Ensure ESD handling protocols are followed during assembly due to the small form factor. Cross-reference pinouts with the latest datasheet revision to avoid layout errors.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing low-voltage TTL logic with LVPECL receivers in compact designs. The VSSOP package suits space-constrained PCB layouts. Evaluate the 550 ps propagation delay against system timing requirements. Consider thermal dissipation capabilities within the specified ambient temperature range for reliable operation.

Translators, Level Shifters Part Context

This part belongs to the SN65LVELT series of translators. It bridges the gap between standard digital logic levels and high-performance emitter-coupled logic standards. The series is engineered for applications demanding precise signal integrity and minimal skew in high-frequency environments.
