ON Semiconductor MC100ELT20DR2 Differential PECL to TTL Translator

The ON Semiconductor MC100ELT20DR2 is a high-performance integrated circuit designed to translate a differential Positive Emitter Coupled Logic (PECL) input signal to a Transistor-Transistor Logic (TTL) output level. This device is part of ON Semiconductor's 5 V ECL series of products, and it is specifically engineered to provide a reliable interface between systems that operate on different voltage logic levels.

The MC100ELT20DR2 features a differential PECL input structure which makes it capable of handling high-speed signals with minimal skew and signal degradation. This characteristic is essential for maintaining signal integrity in fast communication systems and high-speed data processing applications. The TTL-compatible output allows this translator to be easily interfaced with a wide range of digital logic components and systems that operate on the TTL logic level, making it a versatile choice for various design needs.

With a propagation delay of typically 2.5 ns, the MC100ELT20DR2 is an excellent choice for applications that require fast signal processing. Additionally, the device is capable of operating over a broad voltage range of 4.2 V to 5.7 V, which provides flexibility in system design and ensures compatibility with most 5 V TTL systems.

The MC100ELT20DR2 is available in an 8-pin SOIC package, which is compact and suitable for space-constrained applications. This package also offers the advantage of surface-mount technology, which is ideal for modern high-density electronic assemblies. The device also features a flow-through pinout that simplifies the PCB layout and can help in reducing signal distortion caused by trace inductances and capacitances.

ON Semiconductor's commitment to quality ensures that the MC100ELT20DR2 meets stringent performance standards. This product is designed for use in telecommunication infrastructure, data communication systems, and other high-speed digital applications where signal level translation is required. Whether you are designing a new system or upgrading an existing one, the MC100ELT20DR2 offers a reliable and efficient solution for PECL to TTL signal translation.
