Overview
The MC100LVEP210 is a low skew 1-to-5 dual differential driver designed specifically for clock distribution. This component is part of onsemi's 100 Series and is optimized for high-performance clock distribution in both +3.3 V and +2.5 V systems. It supports ECL/PECL input signals, which can be either differential or single-ended, and is compatible with HSTL inputs when operating in PECL mode. The device ensures low output-to-output skew and is suitable for distributing low skew clocks across backplanes or boards.
