ICS8501 Datasheet PDF - Integrated Device Technology

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ICS8501 is a low skew, 1-to-16 Differential Current Mode Fanout Buffer. The ICS8501 is designed to translate any differential signal levels to small swing differential current mode (DCM) output levels. An exter nal reference resistor is used to set the value of the current supplied to an external load load/termination resistor.

FEATURES
• 16 small swing DCM outputs
• Translates any differential input signal (LVPECL, LVHSTL, LVDS,
   DCM) to DCM levels without external bias networks
• Translates single ended input levels to DCM levels with a resistor
   bias network on the nCLK input
• Translates single ended input levels to inverted DCM levels with a
   resistor bias network on the CLK input
• Maximum output frequency: 500MHz
• Output skew: 100ps (maximum)
• Part-to-part skew: 650ps (maximum)
• VOH: 850mV (maximum)
• 3.3V operating supply
• 0°C to 70°C ambient operating temperature
