DUAL 1 TO 8 BUFFALO™ CLOCK DRIVER 1
MK74CB218 REV K 051310
Description
The MK74CB218 Buffalo™ is a monolithic CMOS high
speed clock driver. It consists of two identical single input to
eight low-skew output, non-inverting clock drivers. This
eliminates concerns of part to part matching in many
systems. The MK74CB218 is packaged in the tiny 28-pin
SSOP, which uses the same board space as the narrow
16-pin SOIC. The inputs can be connected together for a 1
to 16 fanout buffer.
A quad 1 to 4, and PECL versions, are also available.
Consult IDT for more details.
The MK74CB218 can also act as a voltage translator, since
it is possible to run the inputs at 3.3 V and the outputs at
2.5 V.

Family of IDT Parts
The MK74CB218 Buffalo™ is designed to be used with
IDT’s clock synthesizer devices. The inputs of the Buffalo
are matched to the outputs of IDT clock synthesizers.
Consult IDT for applications support.
Not recommended for new designs. See the
MK74CB218B for new designs.

NOTE: 33 ohm series termination resistors for each output are
essential for operation.
For simplicity, series termination resistors are not shown for
the outputs, but should be placed as close to the device as
possible. It is most critical to have the 0.01 µF decoupling
capacitors closest.

Maximum Speed
The maximum speed at which the chip can operate is limited by the power dissipation in the package. Graph 1
shows the operating frequency plotted against load capacitance per pin for a die temperature of 125°C. This is at
VDD = VDDA = VDDB = 3.3 V, 70°C and with 33 series termination resistors.The termination resistors are
essential because they allow a large proportion of the total power dissipated outside the package. Reducing or
eliminating the series termination will cause an increase in die temperature. It is not recommended to operate the
chip at die temperatures greater than 125°C. Also note that the load capacitance per pin must include PC board
parasitics such as trace capacitance.
If not all outputs of the chip are used, it is possible to operate the chip faster with larger loads. Consult IDT for your
specific requirement.
