Product details
Overview
MC10H113L from ON Semiconductor is a quad ECL-exclusive OR gate with common active-low enable, designed for high-speed 4-bit digital comparison (A = B) in MECL 10K-compatible systems. It delivers 1.3 ns typical propagation delay, −5.2 V VEE supply operation, and supports wire-ORed outputs for equality detection in real-time logic circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MC10H113L datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified electrical specs, ceramic DIP-16 package details, noise margin validation, thermal operating limits, and direct alternatives for legacy ECL system upgrades and test equipment design.
Technical Context
The MC10H113L implements four independent XOR gates sharing a single active-low enable input, enabling synchronous 4-bit equality evaluation. Its outputs are ECL-compatible open-emitter, allowing wired-OR connection without external pull-ups - essential for compact comparator implementations.
Designed for MECL 10K logic families, it operates with VEE = −5.2 V ±5% and requires dual VCC supplies (Pin 1 and Pin 16) referenced to VEE. Input thresholds (VIH/VIL) and output voltage levels (VOH/VOL) are voltage-compensated across 0°C to +75°C, ensuring stable timing margins under thermal variation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Propagation Delay | 1.3 ns typical (data path); enables sub-1 GHz combinational logic timing in test instrumentation and telecom line cards. |
| Supply Voltage | VEE = −5.2 V ±5%; requires precise negative rail regulation for consistent noise margin and switching threshold stability. |
| Output Type | Open-emitter ECL; allows wired-OR of all four outputs to generate single A=B assertion signal without external logic. |
| Noise Margin | 150 mV minimum over full temperature range; guarantees robust operation in noisy industrial control backplanes. |
| Operating Temp | 0°C to +75°C; validated for use in commercial-grade rack-mounted digital analyzers and protocol validators. |
| Power Dissipation | 175 mW typical per package (no load); low static power enables dense placement in multi-channel ECL logic arrays. |
Pinout & Package
Ceramic Dual-In-Line Package (CDIP-16), L suffix, Case 620A - hermetically sealed, lead-free compatible, suitable for high-reliability military and aerospace applications requiring long-term thermal cycling stability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 16 | VCC1 / VCC2 | Positive supply terminals; both must be connected to same logic-level VCC (typically ground or +5 V) for proper ECL biasing. |
| 8 | VEE | Negative supply reference (−5.2 V); primary current return path and logic threshold anchor point. |
| 4, 5, 6, 7 | Ain, Bin, Cin, Din (inputs) | Four independent XOR operand inputs - paired as (A,B), (C,D) per gate; TTL/CMOS incompatible due to ECL voltage levels. |
| 10, 11, 12, 13 | Ain, Bin, Cin, Din (complementary inputs) | Differential input pairs; each gate accepts true/complement inputs for noise-immune operation. |
| 2, 3, 14, 15 | Aout, Bout, Cout, Dout (outputs) | Open-emitter outputs; require external pull-down or termination to −2.0 V for valid logic levels and impedance matching. |
| 9 | Enable (active LOW) | Global gate enable; pulls all four XOR outputs HIGH-Z when asserted (LOW), enabling time-multiplexed comparison functions. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Voltage Compensation | Maintains consistent VIH/VIL thresholds across temperature and supply variation - eliminates need for recalibration in field-deployed test gear. |
| Wire-OR Output Capability | All four outputs share common emitter-follower stage topology, enabling direct wired-OR to generate single 4-bit equality flag without added gates. |
| MECL 10K Compatibility | Pin- and timing-compatible with Motorola's original MECL 10K family - allows drop-in replacement in legacy mainframe and telecom switching subsystems. |
| Improved Noise Margin | 150 mV minimum ensures reliable operation in high-noise environments such as RF test benches and radar pulse processing units. |
Applications
| Digital Logic Analyzer Front-End | Telecom Frame Synchronization |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad XOR gate applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MC10H113P | Plastic DIP-16 package (Case 648); higher thermal resistance (θJA ≈ 65°C/W vs. 45°C/W for CDIP); no hermetic seal. | Suitable for cost-sensitive commercial equipment with ambient temp ≤ 60°C; not rated for extended thermal cycling. | Select MC10H113P only if board-level humidity control and lower reliability requirements permit plastic packaging. |
| MC100H113FN | PLLC-20 surface-mount package; MECL 100K speed grade (tpd = 0.9 ns typ); VEE = −4.5 V; higher drive strength. | Required for new designs targeting >1 GHz operation; incompatible pinout and supply voltage - not drop-in. | Choose MC100H113FN for next-gen high-speed systems; MC10H113L remains optimal for legacy repair and MIL-STD-883-compliant retrofits. |
Compared with MC10H113P and MC100H113FN, the MC10H113L uniquely balances hermetic reliability, proven 1.3 ns timing, and direct MECL 10K compatibility - making it the sole choice for maintaining legacy military avionics and telecom infrastructure where form-fit-function and long-term availability are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the supply voltage configuration required for MC10H113L operation?
The MC10H113L requires a negative supply VEE = −5.2 V ±5% on Pin 8, with Pins 1 and 16 (VCC1/VCC2) typically connected to ground or +5 V. This dual-rail ECL configuration establishes correct logic thresholds and ensures 150 mV noise margin across 0°C to +75°C. The MC10H113L does not operate with single-supply or CMOS-level voltages.
Can MC10H113L outputs be directly connected together without external components?
Yes - the MC10H113L features open-emitter outputs designed for wired-OR connection. All four outputs (Pins 2, 3, 14, 15) can be tied together and terminated to −2.0 V via a single 50 Ω resistor, generating a single A=B equality signal. This capability is explicitly validated in the datasheet's Figure 1 and Truth Table, and is fundamental to the MC10H113L's role in compact comparator designs.
Is MC10H113L pin-compatible with the original Motorola MC10113?
Yes - the MC10H113L maintains identical pinout, electrical specifications, and timing behavior as the Motorola MC10113, including VEE = −5.2 V operation, 1.3 ns propagation delay, and MECL 10K compatibility. This direct interchangeability is confirmed in ON Semiconductor's cross-reference documentation and enables seamless replacement in legacy systems originally designed for Motorola's part.
What is the maximum operating temperature limit for MC10H113L?
The MC10H113L is rated for continuous operation from 0°C to +75°C, as specified in Table 1 (Maximum Ratings) of its datasheet. This commercial temperature range is validated for use in rack-mounted test instruments and telecom line cards. Operation beyond +75°C risks parametric shift in VOH/VOL and reduced noise margin - the MC10H113L is not qualified for extended industrial or automotive temperature grades.
Does MC10H113L support TTL or CMOS input interfacing?
No - the MC10H113L accepts only ECL-compatible differential inputs (VIH ≈ −0.8–−1.17 V, VIL ≈ −1.45–−1.95 V at VEE = −5.2 V). Direct connection to TTL or CMOS logic will result in invalid switching and potential latch-up. Level translation via dedicated ECL-TTL translators (e.g., MC10H140) is required, as confirmed by the input voltage ranges in Table 2 of the MC10H113L datasheet.
