Product details
Overview
SN65ELT22D from Texas Instruments is a dual TTL-to-differential PECL translator in SOIC-8 package, operating from 4.2 V to 5.7 V supply, delivering ≤1.1 ns max propagation delay, <50 ps typ output-to-output skew, and PECL output levels (VOH = 3915–4120 mV, VOL = 3170–3380 mV) for high-speed clock/data transmission over backplanes.
For engineers reviewing the SN65ELT22D datasheet, SN65ELT22D pinout, SN65ELT22D application, or SN65ELT22D equivalent, this device serves as a drop-in replacement for MC10ELT22/MC100ELT22 in 5-V PECL interface designs requiring low skew, temperature-compensated level translation, and industrial temperature support (–40°C to +85°C).
Technical Context
The SN65ELT22D implements two independent TTL-input/PECL-output channels with built-in temperature compensation to stabilize output voltage across –40°C to +85°C. Each channel accepts TTL logic levels (VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) and drives differential PECL outputs terminated to VCC – 2.0 V via 50-Ω resistors.
It operates exclusively on a single +5-V supply (VCC = 4.2–5.7 V, GND = 0 V), with no internal biasing or reference generation required. Output rise/fall times are 0.7–1.1 ns (20%–80%), and maximum switching frequency reaches 470 MHz at TA = 85°C with 300 mVpp amplitude.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.2 V to 5.7 V - Enables robust operation across industrial 5-V rail tolerances without external regulation. |
| Propagation Delay | ≤1.1 ns (max) - Supports sub-nanosecond timing alignment critical for high-speed backplane clock distribution. |
| Output-to-Output Skew | <50 ps (typ) - Ensures precise phase matching between Q0/Q0 and Q1/Q1 differential pairs for synchronous data capture. |
| PECL Output Voltage | VOH = 3915–4120 mV, VOL = 3170–3380 mV - Complies with standard PECL logic thresholds when terminated to VCC – 2.0 V. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - Qualified for industrial and telecom infrastructure environments without derating. |
| Input Compatibility | TTL-level inputs (VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) - Directly interfaces with legacy 5-V logic families without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Max Switching Frequency | 470 MHz at TA = 85°C - Sustains high-speed data transmission in dense backplane applications with 300 mVpp swing. |
Pinout & Package
SN65ELT22D is housed in an industry-standard SOIC-8 package (D package), 3.94 mm × 4.90 mm footprint, 1.75 mm max height, with NiPdAu lead finish and moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1, 260°C peak reflow).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (D0) | TTL input | Accepts standard 5-V TTL logic; floating state yields undefined output. |
| 2 (D1) | TTL input | Independent second TTL input channel; electrically isolated from D0 path. |
| 3 (Q0) | PECL true output | Differential PECL output paired with Q0; requires 50-Ω termination to VCC – 2.0 V. |
| 4 (Q0) | PECL complement output | Complementary PECL output for Q0; enables differential signaling with common-mode rejection. |
| 5 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary signal return path; must be low-impedance and decoupled near VCC pin. |
| 6 (VCC) | Positive supply | +5-V power input; supports 4.2–5.7 V range; requires local 0.1-µF ceramic bypass capacitor. |
| 7 (Q1) | PECL true output | Second differential PECL output channel; matched skew with Q0 for multi-lane timing. |
| 8 (Q1) | PECL complement output | Complement to Q1; forms second independent differential pair for parallel data paths. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Drop-in compatibility | Pin- and function-compatible with MC10ELT22 and MC100ELT22 - enables direct substitution without PCB redesign. |
| Built-in temperature compensation | Stabilizes PECL output voltage over –40°C to +85°C - eliminates need for external thermal feedback or calibration. |
| Low inter-channel skew | <50 ps typical output-to-output skew - ensures deterministic timing between dual channels for synchronized clock/data transfer. |
| Single-supply operation | Operates from +5-V supply only - removes requirement for negative rails or dual supplies common in older PECL translators. |
| High noise immunity | PECL differential outputs with 700–800 mV swing - provides >300 mV noise margin against EMI in noisy backplane environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar TTL-to-PECL translation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MC10ELT22 | Same pinout and function, but obsolete; no longer in production by ON Semiconductor. | Legacy designs may require obsolescence mitigation; SN65ELT22D offers active supply and TI's long-term support. | Select SN65ELT22D for new designs requiring guaranteed availability and full technical documentation. |
| SN65ELT21D | Single-channel version (1× TTL-to-PECL) in same SOIC-8 package; identical electrical specs per channel. | Suitable only where one translation channel is needed; not a functional replacement for dual-channel requirement of SN65ELT22D. | Choose SN65ELT22D when dual independent channels are mandatory for clock + data or redundant timing paths. |
Compared with MC10ELT22 and SN65ELT21D, the SN65ELT22D uniquely delivers dual-channel TTL-to-PECL translation with active manufacturing status, MSL-1 packaging, and TI's industrial temperature qualification - making it the only supported, drop-in solution for new dual-channel backplane timing designs.

FAQ
What is the recommended termination for SN65ELT22D PECL outputs?
The SN65ELT22D PECL outputs require 50-Ω resistive termination to VCC – 2.0 V for proper logic level definition and signal integrity. This configuration ensures VOH ≈ 3.9–4.1 V and VOL ≈ 3.2–3.4 V under load, meeting standard PECL specifications. Avoid open-circuit or unterminated outputs, as they cause undefined states and increased jitter.
Does SN65ELT22D support operation below 4.2 V supply?
No, SN65ELT22D is not characterized or guaranteed for operation below 4.2 V. The absolute minimum supply voltage is 4.2 V per datasheet specifications; operation at lower voltages may result in degraded propagation delay, increased skew, or failure to meet VOH/VOL thresholds. Always maintain VCC within 4.2–5.7 V for full specification compliance.
Can SN65ELT22D drive AC-coupled PECL loads?
Yes, SN65ELT22D can drive AC-coupled PECL loads when used with appropriate DC biasing at the receiver side. The device itself does not provide internal bias; external termination to VCC – 2.0 V remains mandatory at the driver output. AC coupling is acceptable if the receiver supplies correct common-mode voltage (typically VCC – 1.3 V).
Is SN65ELT22D pin-compatible with SN65ELT22DGK?
Yes, SN65ELT22D (SOIC-8) and SN65ELT22DGK (VSSOP-8) share identical pin functions and ordering logic, but differ in physical package dimensions and thermal characteristics. While electrically compatible, PCB layout must be redesigned due to different footprints - SOIC-8 (D) measures 4.90 × 3.94 mm, VSSOP-8 (DGK) is 3.00 × 3.00 mm.
What is the maximum data rate supported by SN65ELT22D?
The SN65ELT22D supports a maximum switching frequency of 470 MHz at TA = 85°C with 300 mVpp output amplitude. At 25°C, it achieves up to 500 MHz. This corresponds to a maximum data rate of 940 Mbps (NRZ) or 470 Mbps (RZ), depending on encoding scheme and system-level signal integrity margins.
