NB6L16DG

The NB6L16 is a high precision, low power ECL differential clock or data receiver/driver/translator buffer. The device is functionally equivalent to the EL16, EP16, LVEL16 and NBSG16 devices. With output transition times of 70 ps, it is ideally suited for high frequency, low power systems. The device is targeted for Backplane buffering, GbE clock/data distribution, Fibre Channel distribution and SONET clock/data distribution applications.Input accept LVNECL (Negative ECL), LVPECL (Positive ECL), LVTTL, LVCMOS, CML, or LVDS. Outputs are 800 mV ECL signals.The VBB pin, an internally generated voltage supply, is available to this device only. For single-ended input conditions, the unused differential input is connected to V as a switching reference voltage. VBB may also rebias AC coupled inputs. When used, decouple VBB and VCC via a 0.01 mF capacitor and limit current sourcing or sinking to 0.5 mA. When not used, VBB should be left open.
