description

This octal ECL-to-TTL translator is designed to provide efficient translation between a 100K signal environment and a TTL signal environment. This device is designed specifically to improve the performance and density of ECL-to-TTL CPU/bus oriented functions such as memory address drivers, clock drivers, and bus-oriented receivers and transmitters while eliminating the need for three-state overlap protection.

Two output enables, 1 and 2, are provided. These enable inputs are ANDed together with 1 being ECL-compatible and 2 being TTL-compatible. This offers the choice of controlling the outputs of the device from either a TTL or ECL signal environment.

The SN100KT5538 is characterized for operation from 0°C to 85°C.
