cept LVCMOS or LVTTL input levels and translate them to
1.8V L VHSTL levels. The clock enable is internally synchronized to eliminate runt pulses on the outputs during asynchronous assertion/deassertion of the clock enable pin.
Guaranteed output and part-to-part skew characteristics
make the ICS8525 ideal for those applications demanding
well defined performance and repeatability.
The ICS8525 is a low skew, high performance
1-to-4 L VCMOS-to-LVHSTL fanout buf fer and a
member of the HiPerClockS™ family of High
Performance Clock Solutions from ICS. The
ICS8525 has two selectable clock inputs that ac-
FEATURES
• 4 differential 1.8V L VHSTL outputs
