3 Description

The LMK1D210xL is a low noise dual clock buffer

which distributes one input to a maximum of 2

(LMK1D2102L), 4 (LMK1D2104L), 6 (LMK1D2106L)

or 8 (LMK1D2108L) LVDS outputs. The inputs can

either be LVDS, LVPECL, HCSL, CML, or LVCMOS.

The LMK1D210xL is specifically designed for driving

50Ω transmission lines. When driving inputs in singleended

mode, apply the appropriate bias voltage to the

unused negative input pin (see Figure 8-8).

LMK1D210xL buffer offers two output common mode

operation (0.7V and 1.2V) for different operating

supply. The device provides flexibility in design for

DC-coupled mode applications.

AMP_SELA / AMP_SELB control pin can be used

to select different output amplitude LVDS (350mV)

or boosted LVDS (500mV). In addition to amplitude

selection, outputs can be disabled using the same pin.

The part also supports Fail-Safe Input function for

clock and digital input pins. The device further

incorporates an input hysteresis which prevents

random oscillation of the outputs in the absence of

an input signal.
