Product details

Overview

MC10H210PG from ON Semiconductor is a dual 3-input/3-output MECL 10K-compatible OR gate in a Pb-free PDIP-16 package, delivering 1.0 ns typical propagation delay, −1.95 V to −0.735 V output voltage swing, and 160 mW typical power dissipation for high-speed clock distribution and wire-OR logic applications.

For engineers reviewing the MC10H210PG datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this device is selected for low-skew clock fanout, multi-level logic reduction, and ECL-compatible signal routing where sub-2 ns timing precision and noise immunity across 0–75°C are required.

Technical Context

The MC10H210PG implements two independent 3-input OR gates, each with three complementary outputs (AOUT/AOUT/AOUT and BOUT/BOUT/BOUT), enabling simultaneous drive of six transmission lines. Its voltage-compensated design maintains stable logic thresholds over temperature and supply variation.

It operates with VEE = −5.2 V ±5%, VCC1 at pins 1/15, VCC2 at pin 16, and VEE at pin 8. Input voltage range spans −1.95 V to −0.84 V (VIL to VIH), and outputs are terminated into 50 Ω to −2.0 V per AC test conditions.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
Propagation Delay	0.5–1.7 ns (max at 75°C); enables sub-2 ns clock skew control in fanout networks
Output Voltage Swing	−1.95 V to −0.735 V (VOL to VOH); ensures robust noise margin >150 mV across temp/voltage
Power Dissipation	160 mW typical; supports dense placement without thermal derating in ECL backplanes
Input Current	IinL = 0.3–0.5 mA, IinH = −450 to −720 µA; compatible with standard MECL 10K drivers
Operating Temp	0°C to +75°C; validated for industrial-grade clock distribution systems
Supply Voltage	VEE = −5.2 V ±5%; requires negative rail regulation for stable threshold referencing

Pinout & Package

MC10H210PG uses a 16-pin plastic dual-in-line package (PDIP-16, Case 648), with lead finish Pb-free per RoHS. Pin 8 is common VEE (−5.2 V), pins 1 & 15 are VCC1, pin 16 is VCC2, and all inputs/outputs are arranged for symmetrical layout and minimized trace length in high-speed routing.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
1, 15	VCC1	Positive supply for Gate A logic section; decoupling required near pin 1
2, 3, 4	AIN	Three independent inputs to Gate A; wired-OR capable with other MECL sources
5, 6, 7	AOUT	Three identical true outputs from Gate A; drives parallel loads without skew amplification
8	VEE	Common emitter reference (−5.2 V); primary ground return for all logic paths
9, 10, 11	BIN	Three independent inputs to Gate B; electrically isolated from Gate A inputs
12, 13, 14	BOUT	Three identical true outputs from Gate B; supports independent fanout routing
16	VCC2	Positive supply for Gate B logic section; allows separate supply filtering from VCC1

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Dual independent 3-input OR gates	Enables two parallel logic paths on one die-reduces package count vs. discrete gate arrays
1.0 ns typical propagation delay	Minimizes inter-output skew in clock distribution trees; critical for <1 GHz synchronous systems
150 mV noise margin over full temp/voltage	Guarantees reliable operation in noisy backplane environments without external hysteresis
Voltage-compensated input thresholds	Maintains consistent VIH/VIL across VEE drift and temperature-no recalibration needed
MECL 10K™ compatibility	Interoperates directly with legacy Motorola/Freescale ECL families without level-shifting

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ECL OR gate applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
MC10H210P	Same electrical specs and pinout; SnPb lead finish instead of Pb-free	Not suitable for RoHS-compliant production; same thermal and timing behavior	Select MC10H210P only for legacy repair or non-RoHS prototyping
MC100H210FN	PLCC-20 package; 100-series (MECL 100K) with 0.7 ns faster tpd and −4.5 V VEE	Higher speed but incompatible supply voltage and footprint; requires PCB redesign	Choose MC100H210FN only when >500 MHz timing margins and space-constrained layouts justify re-spin

FAQ

What is the recommended termination for MC10H210PG outputs?

MC10H210PG outputs must be terminated with a 50 Ω resistor to −2.0 V, as specified in Table 2 and Figure 1 of the datasheet. This termination ensures proper signal integrity, meets VOL/VOH specifications, and prevents reflections in transmission-line-driven applications such as clock distribution networks. Failure to use this exact termination may result in degraded noise margin or timing violations.

Does MC10H210PG support mixed-voltage operation between VCC1 and VCC2?

No, MC10H210PG does not support mixed-voltage operation. VCC1 (pins 1, 15) and VCC2 (pin 16) are both intended for the same positive supply voltage-typically 0 V referenced to VEE = −5.2 V. The datasheet specifies no differential tolerance between them, and operation with unequal VCC rails is neither characterized nor guaranteed.

Can MC10H210PG be used as a level shifter between TTL and ECL logic?

No, MC10H210PG is not designed or characterized as a TTL-to-ECL level shifter. Its inputs require MECL-compatible voltage levels (VIH ≈ −0.81 V, VIL ≈ −1.95 V at 25°C), which are incompatible with TTL's 2.0 V/0.8 V thresholds. Interfacing TTL directly to MC10H210PG will cause incorrect logic states and is outside datasheet operating conditions.

What is the maximum continuous output current rating for MC10H210PG?

The MC10H210PG has a maximum continuous output current rating of ±50 mA per output, as defined in Table 1 under "Iout – Output Current – Continuous." This limit applies to steady-state DC loading; surge current up to ±100 mA is allowed briefly but not continuously. Exceeding ±50 mA risks parametric shift or thermal instability.

Is MC10H210PG pin-compatible with MC10H210L or MC10H210M?

MC10H210PG (PDIP-16) shares identical pinout and logic function with MC10H210L (CDIP-16) and MC10H210M (SOEIAJ-16), but mechanical compatibility is limited to footprint and pin numbering-not electrical or thermal equivalence. All three use the same pin assignment diagram shown on page 1 of the datasheet, confirming functional pin-to-pin mapping across packages.
