The CY2DP3120 is a low-skew, low propagation delay 1-to-20
differential fanout buffer targeted to meet the requirements of
high-performance clock and data distribution applications. The
device is implemented on SiGe technology and has a fully
differential internal architecture that is optimized to achieve
low signal skews at operating frequencies of up to 1.5 GHz.
The device features two differential input paths that are multiplexed internally. This mux is controlled by the CLK_SEL pin.
The CY2DP3120 may function not only as a differential clock
buffer but also as a signal-level translator and fanout on
ECL/PECL signal to twenty ECL/PECL differential loads. An
external bias pin, VBB, is provided for this purpose. In such an
application, the VBB pin should be connected to either one of
the CLKA# or CLKB# inputs and bypassed to ground via a
0.01-µF capacitor. Traditionally, in ECL, it is used to provide
the reference level to a receiving single-ended input that might
have a different self-bias point.
Since the CY2DP3120 introduces negligible jitter to the timing
budget, it is the ideal choice for distributing high frequency,
high precision clocks across back-planes and boards in
communication systems. Furthermore, advanced circuit
design schemes, such as internal temperature compensation,
ensure that the CY2DP3120 delivers consistent performance
over various platforms.
