SY89858U
Precision Low Power 1:8 LVPECL
Fanout Buffer with Internal Termination
General Description
The SY89858U is a 2.5V/3.3V precision, high-
speed, fully differential LVPECL 1:8 fanout buffer
optimized to provide eight identical output copies
with less than 30ps of skew and less than 10ps
pp
total jitter. It can process clock signals as fast as
2.0GHz.
The differential input includes Micrel’s unique, 3-pin
input termination architecture that allows the
SY89858U to directly interface to LVPECL, CML,
and LVDS differential signals (AC- or DC-coupled)
as small as 100mV without any level shifting or
termination resistor networks in the signal path. The
result is a clean, stub-free, low-jitter interface
solution.
The
LVPECL
(100k
temperature
compensated) outputs feature 800mV typical swing
into 50Ω loads, and provide fast rise/fall times
guaranteed to be less than 200ps.
The SY89858U operates from a 2.5V ±5% supply or
3.3V ±10% supply and is guaranteed over the full
industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C. For
applications that require a higher speed fanout
buffer, consider the SY58032U. The SY89858U is
®
part of Micrel’s high-speed, Precision Edge product
line. All support documentation can be found on
Micrel’s web site at: www.micrel.com.

Pin Function
Differential Input: This differential input accepts AC- or DC-coupled signals as
small as 100mV (200mV
PP
). Each pin of this pair internally terminates to a VT pin
open. Please refer to the “Input Interface Applications” section for more details.
4
VT
Input Termination Center-Tap: Each side of the differential input pair terminates
to this VT pin. The VT pin provides a center-tap to a termination network for
maximum interface flexibility. See the “Input Interface Applications” section for
more details.
Reference Voltage: This output biases to V
CC
–1.2V (typical). It is used for AC-
coupling inputs IN and /IN. Connect VREF-AC directly to the corresponding VT
pin. Bypass with 0.01uF low ESR capacitor to V
CC
. Maximum sink/source
capability is 1.5mA.
Positive Power Su
to the VCC pins as possible.
100k LVPECL Differential Outputs: Differential buffered output copy of the input
signal. The LVPECL output swing is typically 800mV into 50Ω to V
CC
–2V.
Unused output pairs may be left floating with no impact on jitter. See “LVPECL
Output” section.
Ground: Ground pins and exposed pad must be connected to the same ground
plane.

Notes:
1. Permanent device damage may occur if absolute maximum ratings are exceeded. This is a stress rating only and functional operation is
not implied at conditions other than those detailed in the operational sections of this data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings
conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
2. The data sheet limits are not guaranteed if the device is operated beyond the operating ratings.
3. Due to the limited drive capability use for input of the same package only.
4. Package Thermal Resistance assumes exposed pad is soldered (or equivalent) to the devices most negative potential on the PCB.
JA

values are determined for a 4-layer board in still air, unless otherwise stated.
5. The circuit is designed to meet the DC specifications shown in the above table after thermal equilibrium has been established.
