General Description

The CLC001 is a monolithic, high-speed cable driver designed

for use in SMPTE 259M serial digital video and ITU-T

G.703 serial digital data transmission applications. The

CLC001 drives 75Ω transmission lines (Belden 8281 or

equivalent) at data rates up to 622 Mbps. Controlled output

rise and fall times (400 ps typical) minimize transitioninduced

jitter. The output voltage swing is adjustable from

800 mVp-p to 1.0 Vp-p using an external resistor.

The CLC001’s output stage consumes less power than other

designs. The differential inputs accept LVDS signal levels,

LVPECL levels directly or PECL with attenuation networks.

All these make the CLC001 an excellent general purpose

high speed driver for high-speed, long distance data transmission

applications.

The CLC001 is powered from a single +3.3V supply and

comes in a small 8-pin SOIC package.
