Product details
Overview
MXD1013SA010 from Maxim Integrated is a monolithic 3-channel silicon delay line IC with three independent, logic-buffered outputs each delivering a precise 10ns nominal delay (±2ns accuracy), TTL/CMOS-compatible inputs, and ability to drive up to ten 74LS loads. It operates from a +5V supply and is used in clock synchronization and digital system timing alignment where deterministic, low-jitter signal delay is required.
For engineers reviewing the MXD1013SA010 datasheet, MXD1013SA010 pinout, MXD1013SA010 application, or MXD1013SA010 equivalent, key selection considerations include its ±2ns delay tolerance at 10ns, 8-pin SO package footprint, 20mA active current draw, leading- and trailing-edge delay accuracy, and compatibility with legacy DS1013-based designs.
Technical Context
The MXD1013SA010 implements three fully independent delay paths on a single die, each with matched propagation characteristics and internal temperature/voltage compensation to maintain delay stability across -40°C to +85°C. All delays are specified at VCC = +5.0V ±5% and measured at the 1.5V logic threshold for both rising (tPLH) and falling (tPHL) edges.
Each input drives a dedicated buffered output stage with rail-to-rail CMOS/TTL logic compatibility and guaranteed output drive strength of ≥12mA sink / ≥1mA source. The device exhibits unidirectional delay drift-i.e., all three outputs shift similarly under supply or temperature variation-enabling consistent inter-channel skew control in multi-signal timing applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Delay | 10ns per channel - fixed, factory-trimmed delay time with ±2ns absolute tolerance over temperature and voltage. |
| Delay Accuracy | ±2ns (10ns–60ns range) - guarantees tight absolute timing margin for critical setup/hold alignment in high-speed digital systems. |
| Supply Voltage | +5.0V ±5% - compatible with standard TTL/CMOS logic rails; no external regulation required for nominal operation. |
| Active Current | 20mA typical - half the 40mA consumption of Dallas DS1013, reducing power density and thermal load in dense PCB layouts. |
| Output Drive | Drives ≥10 standard 74LS loads - eliminates need for external fanout buffers in legacy TTL interface designs. |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +85°C - industrial-grade rating suitable for embedded controllers, test equipment, and telecom infrastructure. |
| Input Compatibility | TTL/CMOS logic levels - accepts 0.8V VIH min / 2.2V VIH min thresholds, enabling direct interfacing with mixed-logic-family systems. |
Pinout & Package
MXD1013SA010 is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package, 3.9mm wide, with standard 1.27mm pitch and gull-wing leads. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or dot; the package is RoHS-compliant (lead-free finish, per ordering suffix).
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | IN1 | First independent input signal; triggers OUT1 after 10ns delay. |
| 2 | IN2 | Second independent input signal; triggers OUT2 after 10ns delay. |
| 3 | IN3 | Third independent input signal; triggers OUT3 after 10ns delay. |
| 4 | GND | Digital ground reference for all internal circuitry and I/O stages. |
| 5 | OUT1 | Buffered delayed output corresponding to IN1; 10ns delay, TTL/CMOS-compatible. |
| 6 | OUT2 | Buffered delayed output corresponding to IN2; 10ns delay, TTL/CMOS-compatible. |
| 7 | OUT3 | Buffered delayed output corresponding to IN3; 10ns delay, TTL/CMOS-compatible. |
| 8 | VCC | +5V power supply input; requires local 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitor to GND. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Three independent buffered delays | Enables simultaneous, isolated timing adjustment of three signals without crosstalk or shared path loading. |
| ±2ns delay tolerance (10ns) | Meets sub-nanosecond jitter budgets in clock deskew and data eye alignment applications. |
| 20mA supply current | Reduces thermal dissipation by 50% vs. DS1013, supporting higher channel density in space-constrained modules. |
| TTL/CMOS-compatible I/O | Eliminates level-shifting components when interfacing with FPGA I/O banks, microcontroller GPIOs, or legacy logic families. |
| Leading- and trailing-edge accuracy | Ensures symmetrical delay for both rising and falling edges-critical for pulse-width integrity in strobe or enable signals. |
Applications
| Clock Synchronization | Digital Test Equipment |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar silicon delay line applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DS1013S-10 | Same 10ns delay, but 40mA ICC and wider ±3ns tolerance; 14-pin DIP only. | Limited to through-hole assembly; lacks SOIC footprint and lower power advantage. | Select DS1013S-10 only for legacy DIP-based repair or where pin-for-pin DIP replacement is mandatory. |
| MAX9602EUA+ | Programmable 0–100ns delay (1ns steps), 8-pin µMAX, but requires SPI configuration and external clock. | Not pin-compatible; adds firmware overhead and layout complexity for static 10ns use cases. | Choose MAX9602EUA+ only when dynamic delay adjustment or fine-grained resolution is required-not for fixed 10ns replacement. |
Compared with DS1013S-10 and MAX9602EUA+, the MXD1013SA010 delivers superior power efficiency, tighter delay tolerance, and immediate plug-and-play integration in surface-mount digital timing circuits-without configuration overhead or package conversion.

FAQ
What is the absolute delay accuracy specification for MXD1013SA010 over temperature?
The MXD1013SA010 guarantees ±2ns absolute delay accuracy for its 10ns nominal delay across the full operating range of -40°C to +85°C. This tolerance is specified at VCC = +5.0V ±5% and includes contributions from process variation, temperature drift, and supply sensitivity-verified per Maxim's datasheet Note 6 and Figure TOC2–TOC4.
Does MXD1013SA010 support independent input signals on all three channels?
Yes, MXD1013SA010 provides three fully independent input pins (IN1, IN2, IN3), each driving its own buffered output (OUT1, OUT2, OUT3) with identical 10ns delay. There is no internal coupling or shared delay path-each channel operates autonomously, enabling true parallel timing control.
Can MXD1013SA010 replace DS1013 in existing designs without layout changes?
MXD1013SA010 is not pin-compatible with DS1013 due to differing pin counts (8-pin SO vs. 14-pin DIP), but it matches DS1013's electrical behavior, delay spec, and drive strength. For drop-in replacement, use MXD1013PD010 (14-pin DIP) instead; MXD1013SA010 requires SOIC footprint adaptation.
What is the recommended power supply decoupling for MXD1013SA010?
A 0.1µF ceramic capacitor placed as close as possible between VCC (Pin 8) and GND (Pin 4) is mandatory for stable operation. This minimizes high-frequency switching noise coupling into the delay paths and ensures consistent 10ns timing accuracy across input edge rates up to 100MHz.
Is MXD1013SA010 compliant with RoHS and lead-free soldering standards?
MXD1013SA010 is manufactured with lead-free terminations and complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The "+" suffix denotes RoHS/lead-free packaging; standard MXD1013SA010 (without suffix) is also lead-free per Maxim's materials analysis documentation and drawing code S8-4*.
