1:9 Differential LVPECL/LVECL/HSTL Clock and
Data Driver
General Description
The MAX9326 low-skew, 1:9 differential driver features
extremely low output-to-output skew (50ps max) and
part-to-part skew (225ps max). These features make
the device ideal for clock and data distribution across a
backplane or board. The device repeats an HSTL or
LVECL/LVPECL differential input at nine differential out-
puts. Outputs are compatible with LVECL and LVPECL,
and directly drive 50Ω terminated transmission lines.
The differential inputs can be configured to accept a
single-ended signal when the unused complementary
input is connected to the on-chip reference output volt-
age V
BB.
All inputs have internal pulldown resistors to
V
EE.
The internal pulldowns and a fail-safe circuit
ensure differential low default outputs when the inputs
are left open or at V
EE
.
The MAX9326 operates over a +2.375V to +3.8V supply
range for interfacing to differential HSTL and LVPECL
signals. This allows high-performance clock or data dis-
tribution in systems with a nominal +2.5V or +3.3V sup-
ply. For LVECL operation, the device operates with a
-2.375V to -3.8V supply.
The MAX9326 is offered in 28-lead PLCC and space-
saving 28-lead QFN packages. The MAX9326 is speci-
fied for operation from -40°C to +85°C.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
