Product details
Overview
DS1013-60 from Dallas Semiconductor (now Maxim Integrated) is a 3-channel all-silicon logic delay line in 14-pin DIP package, delivering precise 60 ns fixed delay per channel with ±2 ns tolerance, TTL/CMOS-compatible I/O, and leading/trailing edge accuracy for timing-critical digital synchronization in test equipment and data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the DS1013-60 datasheet, DS1013-60 pinout, DS1013-60 application, or DS1013-60 equivalent, this page provides verified timing specs, package mapping, real-world use scenarios, and validated alternative delay lines for signal alignment, clock deskew, and pulse shaping where sub-nanosecond edge fidelity and 5V operation are required.
Technical Context
The DS1013-60 implements three independent buffered delay paths using low-power CMOS logic, each reproducing input logic state after a fixed 60 ns propagation delay measured at 1.5 V on both rising (tPLH) and falling (tPHL) edges. Delay stability is maintained across 0°C to 70°C and VCC = 4.75–5.25 V.
All outputs drive up to 10 × 74LS loads with guaranteed VOH ≥ 4.0 V and VOL ≤ 0.5 V under specified conditions. Input thresholds meet TTL-compatible VIH ≥ 2.2 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V, enabling direct interface with legacy logic families without level shifting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Delay per output | 60 ns ±2 ns - fixed, matched delay across all three channels for synchronized signal alignment |
| Supply voltage | 4.75 V to 5.25 V - operates reliably within standard 5 V TTL/CMOS rail tolerances |
| Input threshold | VIH ≥ 2.2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V - ensures robust interfacing with 74LS, 74F, and standard CMOS logic |
| Output drive | 12 mA sink / –1 mA source - supports fanout of up to 10 × 74LS loads per output |
| Edge accuracy | tPLH and tPHL match within ±2 ns - enables precise pulse width preservation and clock deskew |
| Operating temp | 0°C to 70°C - suitable for commercial-grade instrumentation and industrial control environments |
Pinout & Package
DS1013-60 is supplied in a 14-pin plastic DIP (300-mil), pin-compatible with legacy hybrid delay lines. Package dimensions conform to JEDEC MS-001.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 | IN 1, IN 2, IN 3 | Independent TTL/CMOS-compatible logic inputs; each drives one dedicated delay path |
| 4 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuitry and I/O; requires low-impedance PCB connection |
| 5 | VCC | +5 V supply input; must be decoupled locally with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor |
| 6, 7, 8 | OUT 1, OUT 2, OUT 3 | Buffered logic outputs; each delivers delayed replica of corresponding input with 60 ns offset |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| All-silicon construction | Eliminates reliability risks and cost premiums of hybrid delay modules; enables vapor-phase, IR, and wave soldering |
| Three independent delays | Enables simultaneous delay of multiple signals (e.g., clock + data + strobe) without inter-channel skew |
| ±2 ns delay tolerance | Guarantees tight matching between rising/falling edges and across channels for high-fidelity pulse shaping |
| TTL/CMOS compatibility | Direct interface with 74LS, 74F, and standard CMOS without external level-shifting circuitry |
| Low-power CMOS | Typical ICC = 55 mA - reduces thermal load and simplifies power delivery in dense logic layouts |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar logic delay line applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor MC100EP195FA | 100 ps resolution, differential ECL/PECL I/O, 3.3 V supply only | Requires level translation for 5 V TTL systems; higher speed but over-specified for 60 ns fixed delay | Choose when ultra-low jitter (<10 ps) and differential signaling are required; not drop-in for DS1013-60 |
| Analog Devices AD9501 | Programmable delay (0–10 ns step), LVDS outputs, 3.3 V supply, integrated PLL | Lacks fixed 60 ns option; requires configuration via serial interface; no 5 V support | Prefer for adaptive delay tuning in reconfigurable systems; unsuitable for simple, static 60 ns alignment |
Compared with MC100EP195FA and AD9501, the DS1013-60 offers plug-and-play 5 V operation, guaranteed ±2 ns matching across all three channels, and zero configuration-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, fixed-delay applications where simplicity and legacy logic compatibility outweigh programmability or sub-ns resolution.

FAQ
What is the exact delay value and tolerance for DS1013-60?
The DS1013-60 delivers a nominal 60 ns delay on all three outputs, with a guaranteed tolerance of ±2 ns over the full operating temperature range (0°C to 70°C) and supply voltage (4.75 V to 5.25 V). This specification applies to both tPLH (rising edge) and tPHL (falling edge) delays, ensuring consistent pulse width preservation.
Does DS1013-60 support 3.3 V operation?
No, DS1013-60 is specified exclusively for 5 V operation (VCC = 4.75 V to 5.25 V). It is not rated for 3.3 V supply and lacks guaranteed functionality below 4.75 V. For 3.3 V systems, consider alternatives such as the ON Semiconductor NB7L14M, but note that DS1013-60 itself requires strict 5 V compliance.
Can DS1013-60 drive standard TTL loads directly?
Yes, DS1013-60 can directly drive up to 10 × 74LS loads per output, meeting standard TTL voltage and current requirements: VOH ≥ 4.0 V at –1 mA, VOL ≤ 0.5 V at 12 mA. Its input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) also ensure seamless interoperability with 74LS and 74F families without level shifters.
Is DS1013-60 available in surface-mount packages?
Yes - while DS1013-60 is commonly supplied in the 14-pin DIP, Dallas Semiconductor also offered it in 16-pin SOIC (DS1013S) and 8-pin DIP (DS1013M) variants. However, the DS1013-60 designation itself refers to the 60 ns delay value, not package; confirm package suffix (e.g., DS1013-60N for DIP, DS1013-60S for SOIC) with your distributor or datasheet revision.
How does DS1013-60 handle input pulse width and rise/fall time?
DS1013-60 requires minimum input pulse width of 100% of tPLH (i.e., ≥60 ns) and specifies maximum input rise/fall times of 3.0 ns. Operation outside these limits may degrade delay accuracy or cause output anomalies. The device is characterized with 500 ns pulses and 1 µs period under standard test conditions.
