SY100EPT20VZG

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The SY100EPT20VZG is a TTL/CMOS to differential PECL translator manufactured by Microchip Technology under the ECL Pro series. It operates on a single positive supply of 3.3V or 5V without requiring a negative voltage rail. The device features an LVTTL input and provides differential LVPECL outputs. It supports a maximum input frequency of 850 MHz with a typical propagation delay of 300 ps. The component is housed in an 8-pin SOIC package and functions within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number SY100EPT20VZG matches the required industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C) and the 8-lead plastic SOIC (Z8-1) package configuration. Confirm lead finish specifications, as this variant utilizes NiPdAu plating with a Pb-Free bar-line indicator. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints designed for the Z8-1 package dimensions before finalizing procurement orders.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems that require translation between LVTTL/LVCMOS logic levels and differential LVPECL signaling. It is suitable for applications demanding a single positive supply operation, eliminating the need for negative voltage rails. Consider its 850 MHz maximum frequency capability and low propagation delay for high-speed data transmission paths where signal integrity and minimal loading are critical requirements.

Translators, Level Shifters Part Context

This device belongs to the SY10/100EPT20V family within the ECL Pro product line. The 'SY100' prefix typically denotes the industrial temperature grade variant compared to commercial grades. The manufacturer acquired Micrel, Inc., which originally developed this technology. The component serves as a bridge between standard digital logic families and high-speed emitter-coupled logic interfaces.
