LVTTL/TTL/CMOS-to-Differential LVECL/
ECL Translators
0/MAX9361
General Description
Features
The MAX9360/MAX9361 are low-skew, single LVTTL/
TTL/CMOS-to-differential LVECL/ECL translators
designed for high-speed signal and clock driver appli-
cations. For interfacing to LVTTL/TTL/CMOS input sig-
nals, these devices operate over a 3.0V to 5.5V supply
range, allowing high-performance clock or data distrib-
ution. For interfacing to differential LVECL/ECL output
signals, these devices operate from a -2.375V to -5.5V
supply.
o Output High with Input Open
o -2.375V to -5.5V LVECL/ECL Operation
o ESD Protection > 2kV (Human Body Model)
o 3.0V to 3.6V LVTTL/CMOS Operation (MAX9360)
Improved Second Source of the MC100EPT24
Low 13.8mA (typ) I Supply Current
EE
440ps (typ) Propagation Delay
> 300mV Output at 1GHz
The MAX9360 is a 3.3V LVTTL/CMOS-to-LVECL/ECL
translator that operates at a typical speed of 3GHz. The
MAX9361 is a 5V TTL/CMOS-to-LVECL/ECL translator
that operates at a typical speed of 1.3GHz. Both
devices can be used to drive either LVECL devices or
standard ECL devices with a negative supply range of
-2.375V to -5.5V.
o 4.5V to 5.5V TTL Operation (MAX9361)
Improved Second Source of the MC100ELT24
Low 6.6mA (typ) I Supply Current
EE
600ps (typ) Propagation Delay
> 300mV Output at 250MHz
The devices default to high if the input is disconnected,
and feature ultra-low propagation delay: 440ps for the
MAX9360, 810ps for the MAX9361.
