MK2761A REV F 051310
External Components
The MK2761A requires a minimum number of external components for proper operation. Decoupling capacitors of
0.1µF should be connected between VDD and GND, as close to the MK2761A as possible. A series termination
resistor of 33Ω may be used for each clock output. If a clock input is not used, the 27 MHz crystal must be
connected as close to the chip as possible. The crystal should be a fundamental mode (do not use third overtone),
parallel resonant, 50 ppm or better. Crystal capacitors should be connected from pins X1 to ground and X2 to
ground. The value of these capacitors is given by the following equation, where CL is the crystal load capacitance:
Crystal caps (pF) = (CL-4) x 2. So, for a crystal with 16 pF load capacitance, the crystal caps should be 24 pF each.
Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses above the ratings listed below can cause permanent damage to the MK2761A. These ratings, which are
standard values for IDT commercially rated parts, are stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device at these
or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied.
Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods can affect product reliability. Electrical
parameters are guaranteed only over the recommended operating temperature range.
