GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 8531-01 is a low skew, high performance
1-to-9 Differential-to-3.3V LVPECL Fanout
Buffer and a member of the family of High
Performance Clock Solutions from IDT. The
8531-01 has two selectable clock inputs. The CLK,
nCLK pair can accept most standard differential input
levels. The PCLK, nPCLK pair can accept LVPECL, CML, or
SSTL input levels. The clock enable is internally synchronized
to eliminate runt pulses on the outputs during asynchronous
assertion/deassertion of the clock enable pin.
Guaranteed output skew and part-to-part skew character-
istics make the 8531-01 ideal for high performance work-
station and server applications.
FEATURES
Nine differential 3.3V LVPECL outputs
Selectable differential CLK, nCLK or LVPECL clock inputs
CLK, nCLK pair can accept the following differential
input levels: LVPECL, LVDS, LVHSTL, SSTL, HCSL
PCLK, nPCLK supports the following input types:
LVPECL, CML, SSTL
Maximum output frequency: 500MHz
Translates any single ended input signal (LVCMOS, LVTTL,
GTL) to 3.3V LVPECL levels with resistor bias on nCLK input
Additive phase jitter, RMS: 0.17ps (typical)
Output skew: 50ps (maximum)
Part-to-part skew: 250ps (maximum)
Propagation delay: 2ns (maximum)
3.3V operating supply
0°C to 70°C ambient operating temperature
Available in lead-free (RoHS 6) package
Industrial Temperature information available upon request

After CLK_EN switches, the clock outputs are disabled or enabled following a rising and falling input clock edge
as shown in Figure 1.
In the active mode, the state of the outputs are a function of the CLK, nCLK and PCLK, nPCLK inputs as described
in Table 3B.
