Overview
The MC100LVEP111FAG is a low skew 2:1:10 differential driver designed by onsemi, specifically for clock distribution applications. This component accepts two clock sources into an input multiplexer and supports both differential and single-ended PECL input signals. It is also compatible with HSTL inputs when operating under PECL conditions. The device is optimized to minimize skew within and between devices, ensuring tight output-to-output skew and low jitter.
The MC100LVEP111FAG operates in PECL, HSTL, and NECL modes, with a wide operating voltage range, making it versatile for various high-performance clock distribution systems.
