SY54017ARMG-TR

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Overview

The SY54017ARMG-TR is a fully differential, low voltage CML 2:1 multiplexer manufactured by Microchip Technology. It processes clock signals up to 3.2 GHz or data patterns up to 3.2 Gbps. The device operates from a 2.5V ±5% core supply and an output supply of either 1.8V or 1.2V ±5%. It features Micrel’s unique 3-pin input termination architecture, allowing direct interfacing with LVPECL, LVDS, or CML differential signals as small as 100mV without external level-shifting or termination resistors. The component guarantees AC performance over the industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Feature Summary

• Ultra-low jitter design ensuring high signal integrity for high-speed applications
• Internal 3-pin input termination architecture eliminates external resistor networks
• Guaranteed fast rise/fall times less than 95ps for precise timing control
• Supports both AC-coupled and DC-coupled interfaces with flexible power supply options

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Applications

• Data Distribution: OC-48, OC-48+FEC
• SONET clock and data distribution
• Fibre Channel clock and data distribution
• Gigabit Ethernet clock and data distribution

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'TR' confirms the Tape and Reel packaging format when sourcing this component. Confirm that the MLF-16 package type matches your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the selected variant supports the required industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C for your intended deployment environment.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring a 2:1 multiplexer capable of handling frequencies up to 3.2GHz. It is suitable for applications needing low jitter performance and simplified interface designs due to its internal termination. Consider the dual supply requirement (2.5V core and 1.2V/1.8V output) during power budgeting.
