Low Skew, 1-to-24
Differential-to-LVCMOS/LVTTL Fanout Buffer
General Description
The ICS8344I-01 is a low voltage, low skew fanout buffer. The
ICS8344I-01 has two selectable clock inputs. The CLKx, nCLKx
pairs can accept most standard differential input levels. The
ICS8344I-01 is designed to translate any differential signal level to
LVCMOS/LVTTL levels. The low impedance LVCMOS/LVTTL
outputs are designed to drive 50Ω series or parallel terminated
transmission lines. The effective fanout can be increased to 48 by
utilizing the ability of the outputs to drive two series terminated lines.
Redundant clock applications can make use of the dual clock inputs
which also facilitate board level testing. The clock enable is internally
synchronized to eliminate runt pulses on the outputs during
asynchronous assertion/deassertion of the clock enable pin. The
outputs are driven low when disabled. The ICS8344I-01 is
characterized at full 3.3V, full 2.5V and mixed 3.3V input and 2.5V
output operating supply modes.
Guaranteed output and part-to-part skew characteristics make the
ICS8344I-01 ideal for those clock distribution applications
demanding well defined performance and repeatability.
