SY100EPT20VZI-TR

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The SY100EPT20VZI-TR is a single-channel, unidirectional mixed-signal translator manufactured by Microchip Technology. It converts LVTTL or LVCMOS input signals to differential Low-Voltage Positive Emitter Coupled Logic (LVPECL) outputs. The device operates on a single positive supply voltage ranging from 3.3V to 5.0V and does not require a negative supply. It features a typical propagation delay of 300ps and supports maximum input frequencies up to 850MHz. The component is housed in an 8-pin MSOP package and is rated for industrial operating temperatures between -40°C and +85°C.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Converts single-ended LVTTL/LVCMOS inputs to differential LVPECL outputs
• Operates on a single 3.3V or 5.0V power supply without requiring negative voltage
• Features PNP-based LVTTL input structure for minimal loading
• Provides high bandwidth performance suitable for frequencies up to 850MHz

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• Interfacing digital logic systems with PECL clock distribution networks
• Level translation in mixed-voltage communication architectures
• High-speed data path signal conditioning

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'ZI' confirms the Industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) and the 'TR' designation indicates Tape and Reel packaging. Confirm that the manufacturer source is correctly identified as Microchip Technology following its acquisition of Micrel. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if lead-free variants are required for new designs.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel solution is needed to bridge LVTTL or LVCMOS domains with differential LVPECL loads. It is appropriate for applications prioritizing low power consumption and compact footprint via the 8-pin MSOP package. Consider alternative packages like SOIC if board space constraints allow for larger footprints.
