SY100EPT21LZG

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The SY100EPT21LZG is a single differential LVPECL-to-LVTTL translator manufactured by Microchip Technology. It operates on a single +3.3V power supply and features a typical propagation delay of 1.9ns with a maximum frequency of 275MHz. The device accepts differential LVPECL inputs and provides a 24mA LVTTL output in an 8-pin SOIC package. It includes a VBB reference voltage output and guarantees operation within the industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Single gate design translating differential LVPECL signals to general-purpose LVTTL levels using only a +3.3V supply
• Low skew architecture suitable for high-speed clock or data signal translation where minimal space and low power are critical
• Built-in stability mechanism that forces the Q output LOW under open input conditions

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• ASIC/FPGA interface connections
• Legacy system interface bridging
• Precision differential-to-single-ended translation

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'ZG' confirms the Pb-Free status and NiPdAu lead finish as documented in the official datasheet. Confirm the package type matches the required 8-pin SOIC footprint. Ensure the industrial temperature rating aligns with the target application environment requirements before finalizing procurement.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, low-power solution is needed to bridge LVPECL sources to LVTTL destinations. The flow-through pinout facilitates easy integration into existing layouts designed for legacy MC100EPT21 devices. Consider the 8-pin SOIC package size constraints and verify that the 24mA output drive capability meets the load requirements of the receiving circuitry.

Translators, Level Shifters Part Context

This part belongs to the ECL Pro™ family of logic translators from Micrel, now distributed by Microchip Technology. It serves as a specialized interface component designed to handle the voltage level differences between high-speed differential signaling standards and standard TTL logic families commonly found in digital systems.

Translators, Level Shifters Replacement Considerations

The datasheet identifies the MC100EPT21D/DT as a pin-for-pin plug-in replacement. Verify compatibility regarding operating temperature ranges and electrical specifications before substituting.
