Motorola MC100EL17 MC100LVEL17 User Guide (1)
Summary
The MC100LVEL17 is a low-voltage, quad differential receiver used for high-speed data transmission. This technical manual provides comprehensive support for hardware designers and electronics engineers, detailing the device’s electrical performance across multiple operating voltages (–3.3V and –5.0V). Users can access key specifications, including DC characteristics—such as current draw and reference voltage outputs—and detailed AC parameters like propagation delay and skew, ensuring proper signal integrity for complex circuit designs.

SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNICAL DATA
The MC100LVEL17 is a low-voltage, quad differential receiver. The device is functionally equivalent to the E116 device with the capability of operation from either a –3.3V or +3.3V supply voltage. The MC100EL17 is pin and functionally equivalent to the MC100LVEL17, but is specified for operation at the standard 100E ECL voltage supply. The LVEL17 provides a VBB output for either single-ended use or as a DC bias for AC coupling to the device. The VBB pin should be used only as a bias for the LVEL17 as its current sink/source capability is limited. Whenever used, the VBB pin should be bypassed to ground via a 0.01µf capacitor. Under open input conditions, the D input will be biased at VCC/2 and the D input will be pulled down to VEE. This operation will force the Q output LOW and ensure stability.

Frequently Asked Questions
How should I properly connect the 'V' output pin?
The V pin must be used only as a bias and always bypassed to ground via a 0.01μf capacitor.
Does this receiver support both +3.3V and -3.3V supply voltages?
Yes, the MC100LVEL17 is functionally equivalent to E116 and can operate from either a –3.3V or +3.3V supply voltage.
What are the typical output rise and fall times (t_r/t_f)?
The minimum typical differential output rise/fall time ranges between 280 ps and 550 ps.
