SY10EP16VZG-TR

Overview

The SY10EP16VZG-TR is a high-speed differential receiver from the ECL Pro family, manufactured by Microchip Technology. It operates within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and supports dual power supply configurations: VEE from -5.5V to -3.0V with VCC at 0V, or VEE at 0V with VCC from 3.0V to 5.5V. The device guarantees AC performance up to a maximum toggle frequency of 3GHz, with propagation delays ranging from 100ps to 300ps depending on temperature. Output transition times are specified between 60ps and 180ps. It features an internal 75kΩ input pulldown resistor and provides a VBB reference voltage output for DC biasing.

Feature Summary

• High-speed differential reception capability designed for interfacing with high-frequency sources
• Integrated VBB pin providing a reference voltage output suitable for single-ended use or AC coupling bias
• Internal 75kΩ input pulldown resistor ensures defined logic states under open input conditions

Applications

• Interfacing with high-frequency signal sources requiring fast transition times
• DC bias generation for AC coupling in differential receiver circuits
• High-speed clock distribution networks utilizing ECL-compatible I/O standards

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required package type (MSOP or SOIC) and lead finish (Pb-Free NiPdAu). Confirm the temperature grade corresponds to the industrial range (-40°C to +85°C). Ensure the datasheet revision aligns with design requirements, noting the document indicates the component is not recommended for new designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a faster alternative to the SY10EL16V is required for high-frequency applications. Consider the 8-pin MSOP or SOIC package constraints and the need for a bypass capacitor on the VBB pin. Evaluate the 3GHz throughput requirement against system timing budgets and verify compatibility with existing ECL logic levels.

Part Context

This part belongs to the SY10EP series, which represents the enhanced performance version of the SY10EL family. Manufactured originally by Micrel and now under Microchip Technology, these devices utilize ECL Pro technology. The ZG suffix specifically denotes the Industrial temperature grade and Pb-free NiPdAu lead finish in an 8-pin plastic package.
