General Description
The MAX9320/MAX9320A are low-skew, 1-to-2 differential drivers designed for clock and data distribution. The
input is reproduced at two differential outputs. The differential input can be adapted to accept single-ended
inputs by applying an external reference voltage.
The MAX9320/MAX9320A feature ultra-low propagation
delay (208ps), part-to-part skew (20ps), and output-tooutput skew (6ps) with 30mA maximum supply current,
making these devices ideal for clock distribution. For
interfacing to differential HSTL and LVPECL signals,
these devices operate over a +2.25V to +3.8V supply
range, allowing high-performance clock or data distribution in systems with a nominal +2.5V or +3.3V supply.
For differential LVECL operation, these devices operate
from a -2.25V to -3.8V supply.
The pinout is the only difference between the MAX9320
and MAX9320A. Multiple pinouts are provided to simplify
routing across a backplane to either side of a doublesided board.
These devices are offered in space-saving 8-pin SOT23,
µMAX, and SO packages.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
