SY89838U
Precision 1:8 LVDS Clock Fanout Buffer
with 2:1 Runt Pulse Eliminator Input MUX
General Description
The SY89838U is a low jitter, low skew, high-speed
1:8 fanout buffer with a unique, 2:1 differential input
multiplexer (MUX) optimized for redundant source
switchover applications. Unlike standard multiplexers,
the SY89838U unique 2:1 Runt Pulse Eliminator
(RPE) MUX prevents any short cycles or “runt” pulses
during switchover. In addition, a unique fail-safe input
protection prevents metastable conditions when the
selected input clock fails to a DC voltage (voltage
between the pins of the differential input drops below
200mV). The SY89838U distributes clock frequencies
from 1kHz to 1.5GHz, guaranteed, over temperature
and voltage.
The differential input includes Micrel’s unique, 3-pin
input termination architecture that allows customers to
interface to any differential signal (AC- or DC-coupled)
as small as 200mV (400Mv
PP
) without any level
shifting or termination resistor networks in the signal
path. The outputs are 350mV compatible LVDS with
fast rise/fall times guaranteed to be less than 150ps.
The SY89838U operates from a 2.5V ±5% supply and
is guaranteed over the full industrial temperature range
of –40°C to +85°C. For applications that require
800mV LVPECL outputs, consider the SY89837U. The
SY89838U is part of Micrel’s high-speed, Precision
Edge
®
product line.

Pin Function
Differential Inputs: These input pairs are the differential signal inputs to the
device. These inputs accept AC or DC-coupled signals as small as 100mV
(200mV
PP
). Each pin of a pair internally terminates to a VT pin through 50Ω.
Please refer to the “Input Interface Applications” section for more details.
Input Termination Center-Tap: Each side of the differential input pair terminates
to a VT pin. The VT0 and VT1 pins provide a center-tap to a termination network
for maximum interface flexibility. See the “Input Interface Applications” section
for more details.
This single-ended TTL/CMOS-compatible input selects the inputs to the
multiplexer. Note that this input is internally connected to a 25kΩ pull-up resistor
and will default to a logic HIGH state if left open. Input threshold is V
CC
/2.
Positive Power Supply: Bypass with 0.1µF//0.01µF low ESR capacitors as close
to VCC pins as possible.
Differential Outputs: These LVDS output pairs are a logic function of the IN0,
IN1, and SEL inputs. Please refer to the truth table below for details. Unused
output pairs must be terminated with 100Ω across the pair.
Ground: Ground pin and exposed pad must be connected to the same ground
plane.
Power-On Reset (POR) Initialization capacitor. When using the multiplexer with
RPE capability, this pin is tied to a capacitor to VCC. The purpose is to ensure
the internal RPE logic starts up in a known state. See “Power-On Rest (POR)
Description” section for more details regarding capacitor selection. If this pin is
tied directly to VCC, the RPE function will be disabled and the multiplexer will
function as a normal multiplexer. The CAP pin should never be left open.
Reference Voltage: These outputs bias to V
CC
–1.2V. They are used for AC-
coupling inputs (IN, /IN). Connect VREF_AC directly to the VT pin. Bypass with
0.01µF low ESR capacitor to VCC. See “Input Interface Applications” section.
Maximum sink/source current is ±1.5mA.

Notes:
1.
Permanent device damage may occur if the absolute maximum ratings are exceeded. This is a stress rating only and functional operation
is not implied at conditions other than those detailed in the operational sections of this data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings
conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
The data sheet limits are not guaranteed if the device is operated beyond the operating ratings.
Package Thermal Resistance assumes exposed pad is soldered (or equivalent) to the devices most negative potential on the PCB.
