MC10EP89DTG

The MC10EP89DTG from ON Semiconductor is a differential fanout gate specifically engineered to drive coaxial cables. This device is particularly useful in digital video broadcasting applications where each output can function as an independent driver due to the polarity-free nature of the system. It produces output swings that are 70% larger than standard ECL outputs, with a typical VOUTpp swing of 1.6 V at 5 V and 1.4 V at 3.3 V. Proper termination at both ends of the coaxial cable is essential for minimizing signal loss.

This driver accepts standard differential ECL inputs and can operate from a -5.0 V supply, common in digital video broadcast standards. It offers a typical propagation delay of 310 ps and can handle frequencies greater than 2 GHz. The operating temperature range is -40°C to 85°C. The MC10EP89DTG is supplied in an 8-TSSOP, 8-MSOP package suitable for surface mounting.

Key electrical characteristics include PECL mode operating range from 3.0 V to 5.5 V (VEE = 0 V) and NECL mode operating range from -3.0 V to -5.5 V (VCC = 0 V). It features an open input default state and safety clamps on inputs. The Q output defaults LOW with inputs open or at VEE. The device is Pb-Free, Halogen Free, and RoHS Compliant.
