DESCRIPTION
Add R1 at end of part number for 7 inch (1K parts), R2 for 13 inch (2.5K
parts) Tape & Reel.
Date code format: “Y” or “YY” for year followed by “WW” for week.
Parts marked JNB for date codes prior to 4WW (prior to 2004).
Date code “YWW” or “YYWW” on underside of part.
The AZ88923 is a limiting post amplifier usable at data rates up to 2.5Gbps. It is ideal for use as a post
amplifier following a transimpedance amplifier.
The AZ88923 contains a programmable loss of signal detect function to determine when the input signal has
been lost. This information can be used with the /EN input pin to disable the output under LOS conditions. The
detect threshold can be set with a resistor divider between V
CC
and V
REF
. The LOS output is an open drain
compatible with CMOS and TTL.
The outputs produce standard PECL 100K voltage compensated levels.
