FastEdge™ Series
CY2PP318
PRELIMINARY
1 of 2:8 Differential Fanout Buffer
Features
Description
The CY2PP318 is a low-skew, low propagation delay 1-to-8
differential fanout buffer targeted to meet the requirements of
high-performance clock and data distribution applications. The
device is implemented on SiGe technology and has a fully
differential internal architecture that is optimized to achieve
low signal skews at operating frequencies of up to 1.5 GHz.
• Eight ECL/PECL differential outputs
• Two ECL/PECL differential inputs
• Hot-swappable/-insertable
• 50-ps output-to-output skew
• < 500-ps device-to-device skew
• Less than 10 ps intrinsic jitter
• 500-ps propagation delay (typical)
• Operation up to 1.5 GHz
• PECL mode supply range: VCC = 2.375V to 3.465V with
VEE = 0V
• ECL mode supply range: VE E = –2.375V to –3.465V with
VCC = 0V
The device features two differential input paths that are multi-
plexed internally. This mux is controlled by the CLK_SEL pin.
The CY2PP318 may function not only as a differential clock
buffer but also as a signal-level translator and fanout on
ECL/PECL signal to eight ECL/PECL differential loads. An ex-
ternal bias pin, VBB, is provided for this purpose. In such an
application, the VBB pin should be connected to either one of
the CLKA# or CLKB# inputs and bypassed to ground via a
0.01-µF capacitor.
Since the CY2PP318 introduces negligible jitter to the timing
budget, it is the ideal choice for distributing high frequency,
high precision clocks across back-planes and boards in
communication systems. Furthermore, advanced circuit
design schemes, such as internal temperature compensation,
ensure that the CY2PP318 delivers consistent, guaranteed
performance over different platforms.
• Industrial temperature range: –40°C to 85°C
• 28-pin PLCC package
• Temperature compensation as 100K ECL
