Differential LVPECL/LVECL/HSTL
Receiver/Drivers
General Description
The MAX9321/MAX9321A are low-skew differential
receiver/drivers designed for clock and data distribu-
tion. The differential input can be adapted to accept a
single-ended input by connecting the on-chip V
BB
sup-
ply to an input as a reference voltage.
The MAX9321/MAX9321A feature ultra-low propagation
delay (172ps) and part-to-part skew (20ps) with 24mA
maximum supply current, making these devices ideal
for clock buffering or repeating. For interfacing to differ-
ential HSTL and LVPECL signals, these devices oper-
ate over a +2.25V to +3.8V supply range, allowing
high-performance clock and data distribution in sys-
tems with a nominal +2.5V or +3.3V supply. For differ-
ential LVECL operation, these devices operate from a
-2.25V to -3.8V supply. Multiple pinouts are provided to
simplify routing across a backplane to either side of a
double-sided board.
Both devices are offered in space-saving 8-pin SOT23,
SO, and µMAX 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.
