Product details
Overview
DS1013-15 from Dallas Semiconductor is a 3-channel all-silicon logic delay line with ±2 ns delay tolerance, 15 ns nominal delay per output, TTL/CMOS-compatible inputs/outputs, and 5 V supply operation. It reproduces both leading and trailing edges with equal precision and drives up to 10 × 74LS loads in industrial timing and signal alignment applications.
For engineers reviewing the DS1013-15 datasheet, DS1013-15 pinout, DS1013-15 application, or DS1013-15 equivalent, this device serves as a precise, low-power, drop-in replacement for hybrid delay lines in clock skew correction, pulse width adjustment, and digital signal synchronization circuits requiring stable sub-ns edge fidelity.
Technical Context
The DS1013-15 implements three independent buffered delay paths in a single IC, each delivering identical 15 ns propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL) with matched temperature and voltage tracking. Its CMOS architecture ensures consistent delay behavior across rising and falling edges, with unidirectional delay shift under environmental variation.
It operates at 5.0 V ±5% over 0°C to 70°C, supports 100 ns minimum input pulse width, and maintains ±2 ns accuracy within the -10 to -60 delay family - directly confirmed for DS1013-15 by Table 1 and Note 3.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Delay per output | 15 ns (tPLH/tPHL), identical across all three channels |
| Delay tolerance | ±2 ns (guaranteed over 0°C to 70°C and 4.75–5.25 V) |
| Supply voltage | 4.75 V to 5.25 V - compatible with standard 5 V TTL/CMOS systems |
| Output drive | 12 mA sink / –1 mA source - sufficient for 10 × 74LS loads |
| Input capacitance | 5–10 pF - minimal loading on upstream logic stages |
| Operating temperature | 0°C to 70°C - commercial-grade stability for embedded control and instrumentation |
Pinout & Package
DS1013-15 is available in 14-pin DIP (300-mil), 8-pin DIP (300-mil), and 16-pin SOIC packages. The 14-pin DIP is pin-compatible with legacy hybrid delay lines; the 8-pin and 16-pin variants reduce board area while maintaining functional equivalence.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN 1, IN 2, IN 3 | Logic inputs | Accept TTL/CMOS-level signals; high-impedance (≤1 µA leakage) |
| OUT 1, OUT 2, OUT 3 | Buffered delay outputs | Deliver identical 15 ns delayed copies of respective inputs; drive 10 × 74LS |
| VCC | Positive supply | 5 V ±5% power rail; decoupling recommended near pin |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for all inputs, outputs, and internal circuitry |
| NC | No connection | Unused pins in 8-pin and 16-pin variants - must remain floating |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar silicon delay line applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor MC100EP195M | 100 ps resolution, ECL-compatible, 3.3 V supply only | Requires level-shifting for 5 V systems; higher speed but narrower voltage range | Choose for sub-ns precision in high-frequency test gear, not for 5 V TTL compatibility |
| Analog Devices AD9501 | Programmable delay (1–1000 ps steps), LVDS I/O, 3.3 V only | Not pin-compatible; requires SPI configuration and external clock | Choose when dynamic delay adjustment is required, not for fixed 15 ns simplicity |
Compared with MC100EP195M and AD9501, DS1013-15 offers plug-and-play 5 V operation, guaranteed ±2 ns absolute delay accuracy, and zero configuration - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, fixed-delay alignment in industrial control and legacy digital systems.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed delay tolerance for DS1013-15 over temperature and voltage?
The DS1013-15 guarantees ±2 ns delay tolerance across the full operating range of 0°C to 70°C and 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply voltage. This specification is explicitly confirmed in Table 1 and Note 3 of the official datasheet, applying to both tPLH and tPHL measurements at the 1.5 V threshold.
Does DS1013-15 support both rising and falling edge delay accuracy?
Yes, DS1013-15 reproduces both leading and trailing edges with equal precision. The datasheet confirms identical 15 ns delay for tPLH (rising edge) and tPHL (falling edge), with ±2 ns tolerance maintained on both transitions - essential for preserving pulse width and duty cycle.
Which package options are available for DS1013-15?
DS1013-15 is offered in three package types: 14-pin DIP (300-mil, pin-compatible with hybrid delay lines), 8-pin DIP (300-mil), and 16-pin SOIC. Pin assignments differ across packages - NC pins appear in the 8-pin and 16-pin variants, and mechanical drawings are referenced in the datasheet.
Can DS1013-15 drive standard TTL loads?
Yes, DS1013-15 can drive up to 10 × 74LS loads per output, as specified in the datasheet. Its IOL = 12 mA and IOH = –1 mA ratings meet TTL interface requirements, and its TTL/CMOS-compatible input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) ensure seamless integration with legacy logic families.
Is DS1013-15 suitable for extended temperature applications?
No, DS1013-15 is rated for 0°C to 70°C operation only. While Dallas Semiconductor offered extended temperature variants for other DS1013 dash numbers, the DS1013-15 variant is specified exclusively for commercial temperature range - confirmed by Absolute Maximum Ratings and DC Electrical Characteristics tables.
