SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNICAL DATA
The MC10E/100E196 is a programmable delay chip (PDC) designed
primarily for very accurate differential ECL input edge placement
applications.
The delay section consists of a chain of gates and a linear ramp delay
adjust organized as shown in the logic symbol. The first two delay
elements feature gates that have been modified to have delays 1.25 and
1.5 times the basic gate delay of approximately 80 ps. These two
elements provide the E196 with a digitally-selectable resolution of
approximately 20 ps. The required device delay is selected by the seven
address inputs D[0:6], which are latched on chip by a high signal on the
latch enable (LEN) control.

DELAY CHIP
The FTUNE input takes an analog voltage and applies it to an internal
linear ramp for reducing the 20 ps resolution still further. The FTUNE input
is what differentiates the E196 from the E195.
An eighth latched input, D7, is provided for cascading multiple PDC’s
for increased programmable range. The cascade logic allows full control
of multiple PDC’s, at the expense of only a single added line to the data
bus for each additional PDC, without the need for any external gating.
