Product details
Overview
DS1100LZ-50 from Maxim Integrated is a 3.3V, 5-tap silicon delay line with nominal delays of 10ns (TAP 1), 20ns (TAP 2), 30ns (TAP 3), 40ns (TAP 4), and 50ns (TAP 5), operating over -40°C to +85°C, driving up to 10 LS-TTL loads per tap, and housed in an 8-pin SOIC package - used for precise edge-aligned timing in high-speed digital test and synchronization circuits.
For engineers reviewing the DS1100LZ-50 datasheet, DS1100LZ-50 pinout, DS1100LZ-50 application, or DS1100LZ-50 equivalent, key selection considerations include tap delay accuracy (±4ns over full temperature range), leading/trailing-edge matching, 3.3V CMOS/TTL compatibility, SOIC-8 footprint, and industrial-grade thermal stability.
Technical Context
The DS1100LZ-50 implements a monolithic all-silicon delay line architecture with five fixed, equally spaced delay taps referenced to a single input signal. Each tap reproduces both rising and falling edges with matched propagation characteristics, enabling deterministic skew control in clock distribution, pulse shaping, and timing calibration paths.
It operates exclusively from a 3.0V–3.6V supply, draws ≤10mA active current at 1MHz, and maintains delay tolerance within ±4ns (for ≤40ns delays) or ±13% (for >40ns delays) across its full industrial temperature range - with no external components required and no voltage-dependent delay drift directionality between taps.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 3.0V to 3.6V - ensures compatibility with 3.3V logic systems without level-shifting. |
| Nominal Tap Delays | 10ns / 20ns / 30ns / 40ns / 50ns - enables precise multi-point timing alignment in serial data recovery or strobe generation. |
| Delay Tolerance | ±4ns (TAP 1–TAP 4), ±5ns (TAP 5) over -40°C to +85°C - guarantees deterministic inter-tap skew for synchronous sampling. |
| Output Drive | 8mA sink / -1mA source - supports direct interfacing to 74LS/74F logic families without buffers. |
| Input Pulse Width | ≥20ns (min) - defines minimum usable signal duration for reliable tap activation. |
| Power-Up Time | 200μs - establishes maximum delay before stable output after VCC application. |
Pinout & Package
DS1100LZ-50 is packaged in an 8-pin SOIC (150-mil width), surface-mount package compliant with JEDEC MS-012, with standard lead spacing and RoHS-compliant finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | IN | Single-ended logic input accepting TTL/CMOS-compatible signals; triggers all five delay taps simultaneously. |
| 2 | TAP 2 | Second delay output (20ns); electrically identical to other taps, capable of driving 10 LS-TTL loads. |
| 3 | TAP 4 | Fourth delay output (40ns); matches TAP 2 and TAP 5 in rise/fall time (2.0–2.5ns) and edge fidelity. |
| 4 | GND | Digital ground reference; must be low-impedance and decoupled near VCC pin for timing stability. |
| 5 | TAP 5 | Fifth delay output (50ns); highest-delay tap, specified with ±5ns absolute tolerance over full temperature range. |
| 6 | TAP 3 | Third delay output (30ns); center tap used for mid-point timing reference in symmetric delay chains. |
| 7 | TAP 1 | First delay output (10ns); shortest delay tap, optimized for minimal jitter accumulation in cascaded paths. |
| 8 | VCC | +3.3V supply input; requires local 0.1μF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| All-silicon delay architecture | Eliminates hybrid or ceramic delay line reliability risks and enables wafer-level testing and guaranteed lifetime performance. |
| Matched leading/trailing edge delay | Ensures zero duty-cycle distortion across all taps - critical for clock retiming and pulse-width preservation. |
| Five equally spaced taps | Provides scalable timing resolution without external interpolation; simplifies PCB layout versus discrete RC or transmission-line solutions. |
| Industrial temperature operation | Validated performance from -40°C to +85°C supports deployment in automotive body control, industrial PLC I/O, and telecom line cards. |
| TTL/CMOS input compatibility | Accepts 0.8V/2.0V logic thresholds across full VCC range - interoperable with legacy and modern logic families without interface circuitry. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar delay line applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DS1023-50 | 5V-only operation; ±5% delay tolerance over 0°C–70°C; 16-pin DIP package. | Limited to commercial-temperature, non-portable test fixtures; incompatible with 3.3V systems. | Select only if legacy 5V design constraints prohibit voltage translation and board space allows DIP footprint. |
| MAX9601ESE+ | Programmable 8-tap delay IC; SPI-configurable; 3.3V/5V dual-supply; SO-16 package. | Supports dynamic delay adjustment and multi-channel synchronization - adds firmware overhead but enables adaptive timing. | Choose when system-level calibration or field-upgradable delay values are required; not suitable for fixed-timing cost-sensitive designs. |
Compared with DS1100LZ-50, DS1023-50 lacks industrial temperature support and voltage compatibility, while MAX9601ESE+ offers programmability at higher BOM cost and design complexity - making DS1100LZ-50 optimal for fixed, high-reliability, 3.3V timing-critical applications where simplicity and predictability are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the operating voltage range for DS1100LZ-50?
The DS1100LZ-50 operates from 3.0V to 3.6V DC, with typical performance characterized at 3.3V. It is not rated for 5V operation, and exceeding 3.6V may cause permanent damage. The device draws ≤10mA of supply current at 1MHz input frequency, supporting low-power 3.3V system integration without additional regulation.
Does DS1100LZ-50 support both rising and falling edge delays with equal accuracy?
Yes, DS1100LZ-50 is explicitly designed to reproduce both leading and trailing edges with equal precision. Its all-silicon architecture ensures matched tPLH and tPHL delays across all five taps, with initial tolerances of ±2ns at +25°C and ±4ns over the full -40°C to +85°C range - critical for preserving pulse width integrity in timing-critical paths.
What is the maximum capacitive load DS1100LZ-50 can drive per tap?
Each tap of DS1100LZ-50 is rated to drive up to 10 LS-TTL loads, equivalent to ~20pF total capacitive load under standard test conditions. Driving heavier loads increases rise/fall times beyond the specified 2.0–2.5ns and may degrade delay accuracy; for >20pF loads, a buffer stage is recommended to maintain timing fidelity.
Is DS1100LZ-50 pin-compatible with other DS1100L variants like DS1100LZ-100?
Yes, all DS1100LZ-xxx variants share identical 8-pin SOIC pinout and electrical interface - only the nominal delay values differ. DS1100LZ-50, DS1100LZ-100, and other members of the DS1100LZ family use the same IN, TAP 1–5, VCC, and GND pin assignments, enabling drop-in replacement during prototyping or design iteration without PCB changes.
What packaging and compliance options are available for DS1100LZ-50?
DS1100LZ-50 is supplied in an 8-pin SOIC (150-mil) package with lead(Pb)-free/RoHS-compliant finish, indicated by the "+" suffix (e.g., DS1100LZ-50+). Tape-and-reel (T&R) packaging is available for automated assembly. Land pattern #90-0096 and outline #21-0041 apply, and the device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1.
