Product details
Overview
MXD1013PA030 from Maxim Integrated is a monolithic 3-channel silicon delay line with three independent, logic-buffered outputs each delivering a precise 30ns nominal delay (±2ns accuracy for 10–60ns range). It operates from a +5V supply, draws 20mA active current, supports TTL/CMOS-compatible inputs, and drives up to ten 74LS loads. It is used in clock synchronization and digital system timing alignment where deterministic, low-jitter signal delay is required.
For engineers reviewing the MXD1013PA030 datasheet, MXD1013PA030 pinout, MXD1013PA030 application, or MXD1013PA030 equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed ±2ns delay tolerance at 30ns, 8-pin PDIP package compatibility with legacy DS1013 footprints, leading- and trailing-edge accuracy, and industrial temperature range support (–40°C to +85°C).
Technical Context
The MXD1013PA030 implements three fully independent delay paths on a single die, each with matched propagation characteristics and internal buffering to maintain signal integrity across varying load conditions. Its delay is fixed per variant (here 30ns), not programmable, and calibrated at +25°C with VCC = +5V.
Delay stability is maintained via internal compensation against supply voltage (±5% VCC) and temperature variations; typical delay shift is ≤±1.5ns or ±3%, whichever is greater, over full operating range. All outputs exhibit unidirectional drift-slowing or speeding together under environmental stress.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Delay | 30ns per channel - precisely matched, fixed delay for timing alignment of parallel signals. |
| Delay Accuracy | ±2ns - guaranteed tolerance for delays 10–60ns, enabling sub-nanosecond-critical setup/hold margin control. |
| Supply Voltage | +5.0V ±5% - compatible with standard TTL/CMOS logic rails; no external regulation required. |
| Active Current | 20mA - half the 40mA draw of Dallas DS1013, reducing thermal load and power supply burden. |
| Output Drive | 10 × 74LS loads - sufficient fanout for direct interface to legacy logic without buffer amplification. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial environments including motor controls and base station timing. |
| Input Compatibility | TTL/CMOS - accepts 0.8V VIH / 2.2V VIH thresholds, simplifying integration into mixed-logic systems. |
Pinout & Package
MXD1013PA030 is housed in an 8-pin plastic DIP (PDIP) package (package code P8-1*, drawing 21-0043D), 0.300" wide, with through-hole mounting and industry-standard footprint.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | IN1 | First independent input - accepts clock or data signal to be delayed by 30ns on OUT1. |
| 2 | IN2 | Second independent input - enables concurrent 30ns delay of a second signal path (OUT2). |
| 3 | IN3 | Third independent input - supports third parallel 30ns-delayed output (OUT3) without crosstalk. |
| 4 | GND | Device ground reference - must be connected to system ground plane for stable delay performance. |
| 5 | VCC | +5V power supply - requires local 0.1µF bypass capacitor to suppress switching noise-induced jitter. |
| 6 | OUT1 | First buffered delay output - delivers 30ns-delayed replica of IN1 with TTL/CMOS-compatible swing. |
| 7 | OUT2 | Second buffered delay output - provides identical 30ns delay for IN2, electrically isolated from OUT1/OUT3. |
| 8 | OUT3 | Third buffered delay output - completes triple-delay capability; all outputs maintain edge accuracy. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Three independent buffered delays | Enables simultaneous, isolated delay of three critical signals (e.g., clock, latch, enable) without inter-channel skew. |
| ±2ns delay tolerance (30ns) | Ensures predictable timing margins in high-speed digital interfaces where 1–2ns uncertainty would violate setup/hold windows. |
| 20mA supply current | Reduces power supply filtering requirements and PCB trace heating vs. 40mA alternatives like DS1013. |
| TTL/CMOS-compatible I/O | Eliminates level-shifting components when interfacing with 74LS, 74HC, or microcontroller GPIOs. |
| Leading- and trailing-edge accuracy | Maintains pulse width integrity - critical for clock distribution, strobe generation, and synchronous sampling. |
Applications
| Clock Synchronization | Digital System Timing Alignment |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Aligning multiple clock domains in FPGA-based data acquisition systems to eliminate metastability during cross-domain sampling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides deterministic 30ns offset between master clock and peripheral interface clocks to meet setup/hold timing budgets. Use Value: Enables reliable multi-clock domain handshaking without custom PCB trace-length matching or complex PLL tuning. |
Use Scenario: Matching propagation delay across parallel data bus lines (e.g., address/data strobes) in industrial PLC backplanes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Delays selected control signals by 30ns to compensate for faster routing of others, equalizing arrival times.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fixed-delay line applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DS1013-030 | Same 30ns nominal delay, but ±5ns tolerance (vs. MXD1013PA030's ±2ns); 40mA ICC (vs. 20mA); wider delay drift over temperature. | Legacy part with broader timing uncertainty; suitable only where ±5ns margin is acceptable. | Select DS1013-030 only for cost-sensitive, non-critical timing or existing DS1013-based designs where requalification is impractical. |
| MXD1013SA030 | Identical electrical specs and 30ns delay, but in 8-pin SOIC (S8-4*) instead of PDIP; RoHS-compliant option available. | Requires surface-mount assembly; better for space-constrained or automated production environments. | Choose MXD1013SA030 for new designs targeting SMT manufacturing or smaller board area; retains full functional equivalence. |
Compared with DS1013-030 and MXD1013SA030, the MXD1013PA030 delivers tighter delay accuracy and lower power in a through-hole package-making it optimal for industrial upgrades and prototyping where mechanical robustness and socket compatibility matter.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed delay accuracy of the MXD1013PA030 over its full operating temperature range?
The MXD1013PA030 guarantees ±2ns delay accuracy for its 30ns nominal delay across the –40°C to +85°C range, as specified for delays from 10ns to 60ns. This tolerance holds under VCC = +5.0V ±5%, and includes effects of temperature and supply variation-no derating or additional margining is required in design.
Is the MXD1013PA030 pin-compatible with the DS1013-030?
Yes, the MXD1013PA030 uses the same 8-pin PDIP package and identical pinout as the DS1013-030, making it a direct drop-in replacement. All pins-including IN1/IN2/IN3, OUT1/OUT2/OUT3, VCC, and GND-are functionally and physically aligned, requiring no PCB changes.
Can the MXD1013PA030 drive modern CMOS loads such as 74HC or microcontroller inputs?
Yes, the MXD1013PA030 outputs are TTL/CMOS-compatible with VOH ≥ 4.0V and VOL ≤ 0.5V at VCC = 4.75V, meeting 74HC input thresholds (VIH ≥ 3.15V, VIL ≤ 1.35V). It can directly drive microcontroller GPIOs and 74HC-series logic without level shifters or buffers.
Does the MXD1013PA030 require external decoupling capacitors?
Yes, a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor must be placed between VCC and GND, as close as possible to pins 5 and 4. This bypassing minimizes power-supply noise coupling into the delay paths, which could otherwise degrade edge accuracy and increase jitter beyond the ±2ns specification.
How does the MXD1013PA030 handle simultaneous switching of all three inputs?
The MXD1013PA030 is designed for concurrent operation: all three delay channels operate independently with no crosstalk or shared resource contention. Simultaneous switching of IN1, IN2, and IN3 produces synchronized 30ns-delayed outputs (OUT1–OUT3) with matched propagation and edge fidelity-verified in the functional diagram and timing test circuit.
