SY89858U Precision Low Power 1:8 LVPECL Fanout Buffer with Internal Termination General Description The SY89858U is a 2.5V/3.3V precision, highspeed, fully differential LVPECL 1:8 fanout buffer optimized to provide eight identical output copies with less than 30ps of skew and less than 10pspp total jitter. It can process clock signals as fast as 2.0GHz. The differential input includes Micrel's unique, 3-pin input termination architecture that allows the SY89858U to directly interface to LVPECL, CML, and LVDS differential signals (AC- or DC-coupled) as small as 100mV without any level shifting or termination resistor networks in the signal path. The result is a clean, stub-free, low-jitter interface solution. The LVPECL (100k temperature compensated) outputs feature 800mV typical swing into 50 loads, and provide fast rise/fall times guaranteed to be less than 200ps. The SY89858U operates from a 2.5V 5% supply or 3.3V 10% supply and is guaranteed over the full industrial temperature range of -40C to +85C. For applications that require a higher speed fanout buffer, consider the SY58032U. The SY89858U is (R) part of Micrel's high-speed, Precision Edge product line.

Pin Configuration 32-Pin QFN Pin Description Pin Number Pin Name Pin Function IN, /IN Differential Input: This differential input accepts AC- or DC-coupled signals as small as 100mV (200mVPP). Each pin of this pair internally terminates to a VT pin through 50. Note that these inputs will default to an indeterminate state if left open. Please refer to the "Input Interface Applications" section for more details. VT Input Termination Center-Tap: Each side of the differential input pair terminates to this VT pin. The VT pin provides a center-tap to a termination network for maximum interface flexibility. See the "Input Interface Applications" section for more details. 5 VREF-AC Reference Voltage: This output biases to VCC-1.2V (typical). It is used for ACcoupling inputs IN and /IN. Connect VREF-AC directly to the corresponding VT pin. Bypass with 0.01uF low ESR capacitor to VCC. Maximum sink/source capability is 1.5mA. 1, 8, 9, 16, 18, 23, 25, 32 VCC Positive Power Supply: Bypass with 0.1F//0.01F low ESR capacitors as close to the VCC pins as possible. 31, 30, 29, 28, 27, 26, 22, 21, 20, 19, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10 Q0, /Q0, Q1, /Q1, Q2, /Q2, Q3, /Q3, Q4, /Q4, Q5, /Q5, Q6, /Q6, Q7, /Q7 100k LVPECL Differential Outputs: Differential buffered output copy of the input signal. The LVPECL output swing is typically 800mV into to 50 V CC-2V. Unused output pairs may be left floating with no impact on jitter. See "LVPECL Output" section. 2, 7, 17, 24 GND Exposed Pad Ground: Ground pins and exposed pad must be connected to the same ground plane. 3, 6 4 August 2007 3 M9999-082907-C hbwhelp@micrel.com or (408) 955-1690 Micrel, Inc.
