Detailed Description
The MAX9381 D flip-flop transfers the logic level at the
D input to the Q output on a rising edge transition of the
clock, provided the minimum setup and hold times are
met. By interchanging the CLK and CLK inputs, the flip-
flop functions as a falling-edge triggered flip-flop.
The input signals (D, D and CLK, CLK) are differential
and have a maximum differential input voltage of 3.0V
or V
CC
- V
EE
, whichever is less. To ensure that the out-
puts remain stable when the inputs are left open, each
of the inputs is driven low by a 75k bias resistor con-
nected to V
EE
. If the D and D inputs are left open or at
V
EE
, the output is guaranteed to be a differential low on
the next low-to-high transition of the clock. If the CLK
and CLK inputs are left open or at V
EE
, the outputs
remain unchanged (Table 1). Terminate the outputs (Q,
Q) through 50 to V
CC
- 2V or an equivalent Thevenin
termination (see the Output Termination section).
ECL/PECL Operation
Output levels are referenced to V
CC
and are consid-
ered PECL or ECL, depending on the level of the V
CC
supply. With V
CC
connected to a positive supply and
V
EE
connected to GND, the outputs are PECL. The out-
puts are ECL when V
CC
is connected to GND and V
EE
is connected to a negative supply.
Applications Information
T Flip-Flop
The MAX9381 can be configured as a T flip-flop by
connecting Q to D and Q to D. This configuration pro-
vides an output at half the frequency of the clock. The
maximum operating frequency is determined by the
sum of the setup time, the propagation delay of the

The minimum supply voltage is 2.375V and is deter-
mined by input and output voltage range.
Output Termination
Terminate the outputs through 50 to V
CC
- 2V or use
equivalent Thevenin terminations. Terminate each Q and
Q outputs with identical termination on each for the lowest
output distortion. When a single-ended signal is taken
from the differential output, terminate both Q and Q.
Ensure that output currents do not exceed the current
limits as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings
table. Under all operating conditions, the devices total
thermal limits should be observed.
Power-Supply Bypassing
Bypass V
CC
to V
EE
with high-frequency surface-mount
ceramic 0.1µF and 0.01µF capacitors. Place the capac-
itors as close to the device as possible with the 0.01µF
capacitor closest to the device pins.
Use multiple vias when connecting the bypass capaci-
tors to ground. This reduces trace inductance, which
lowers power-supply bounce when drawing high tran-
sient currents.
Circuit Board Traces
Circuit board trace layout is very important to maintain
the signal integrity of high-speed differential signals.
Maintaining integrity is accomplished in part by reduc-
ing signal reflections and skew, and increasing com-
mon-mode noise immunity.
Signal reflections are caused by discontinuities in the
50 characteristic impedance of the traces. Avoid dis-
continuities by maintaining the distance between differ-
ential traces, not using sharp corners, or using vias.
Maintaining distance between the traces also increases
common-mode noise immunity. Reducing signal skew
is accomplished by matching the electrical length of
the differential traces.
