SY10EP16VKG

Overview

The SY10EP16VKG is a high-speed differential receiver from the ECL Pro family, manufactured by Microchip Technology. It operates within a supply voltage range of -5.5V to -3.0V (with VCC at 0V) or 3.0V to 5.5V (with VEE at 0V). The device supports clock throughput up to 3GHz and features propagation delays between 100ps and 300ps depending on temperature. Output rise/fall times range from 60ps to 180ps. It includes an internal 75kΩ input pulldown resistor and provides a VBB reference output for biasing. The component is housed in an 8-pin MSOP package.

Feature Summary

• High-speed differential reception with guaranteed AC performance across temperature and supply variations
• Integrated VBB reference voltage output for single-ended use or DC biasing applications
• Internal 75kΩ input pulldown resistor to manage open input conditions
• Improved output waveform characteristics compared to standard EL16V devices

Applications

• Interfacing with high-frequency signal sources
• Clock distribution systems requiring fast transition times
• Differential data reception in ECL-compatible circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm package type and lead finish. The 'KG' suffix indicates an industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) and a Pb-free NiPdAu finish. Confirm availability status as this series may be marked Not Recommended for New Designs. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if required for the target application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing with high-frequency sources requiring faster transition times than standard EL16V devices provide. Consider the 8-pin MSOP package for space-constrained designs. Verify that the system power supply aligns with the specified dual-voltage operation requirements. Evaluate the internal pulldown resistor utility against external pull-down needs.

Part Context

This part belongs to the SY10EP series of ECL Pro logic devices. It serves as a functional equivalent to the EL16V but offers enhanced performance capabilities. The product line targets applications demanding high-speed differential signaling. Manufacturing was originally by Micrel, Inc., now under Microchip Technology.

Replacement Considerations

The SY10EL16V is identified as the standard version with lower performance capabilities. Direct substitutes should be verified against the datasheet's absolute maximum ratings and electrical characteristics to ensure compatibility with existing circuit designs.
