Product details
Overview
SY10EP01VKI-TR from Micrel is a 4-input ECL OR/NOR gate operating at 3.3V or 5V supply, delivering 230ps typical propagation delay, 3GHz maximum toggle frequency, and differential Q and /Q outputs with internal 75kΩ input pulldowns-used in high-speed clock distribution and logic decision circuits in telecom line cards.
For engineers reviewing the SY10EP01VKI-TR datasheet, SY10EP01VKI-TR pinout, SY10EP01VKI-TR application, or SY10EP01VKI-TR equivalent, key selection factors include ECL-compatible voltage thresholds (VIH = –1.21V min, VIL = –1.935V max), industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), MSOP-8 package, and guaranteed AC performance up to 3GHz.
Technical Context
The SY10EP01VKI-TR implements true ECL logic with dual complementary outputs (Q and /Q) and operates with either negative VEE (–3.0V to –5.5V) or positive VCC (3.0V to 5.5V) supply configuration. Its architecture supports DC-coupled termination into 50Ω loads referenced to VCC – 2.0V.
Input thresholds track supply rails 1:1, enabling interoperability across mixed-voltage ECL systems. The device exhibits 5ps typical output skew and 110ps typical rise/fall times (20%–80%), optimized for minimal jitter accumulation in cascaded logic paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Options | 3.3V or 5V operation (VCC = 0V/VEE = –3.0V to –5.5V or VCC = 3.0V to 5.5V/VEE = 0V) |
| Propagation Delay | 230ps typical (D→Q, 50Ω load to VCC – 2.0V); enables sub-nanosecond timing critical paths |
| Max Toggle Frequency | 3GHz (guaranteed functional limit); supports NRZ data rates up to 3 Gbps |
| Input Pulldown | 75kΩ internal resistors; ensures defined LOW state when inputs float-no external biasing needed |
| Output Voltage Swing | VOL = –1.935V min, VOH = –0.885V max (50Ω load); compatible with standard ECL-100K receiver thresholds |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C industrial range; validated for base station control and optical module environments |
Pinout & Package
SY10EP01VKI-TR is housed in an 8-pin MSOP (K8-1) package with exposed pad, 0.65mm pitch, and Pb-free NiPdAu lead finish per ordering code KI variant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| D0–D3 | ECL Data Inputs | Four independent differential-input logic ports accepting standard ECL voltage levels |
| Q | True Output | Active-HIGH ECL output; defaults LOW if all inputs open (due to internal pulldowns) |
| /Q | Complementary Output | Inverted copy of Q; enables differential signaling or clock/data pair routing |
| VCC | Positive Supply Rail | Accepts 3.0V–5.5V when VEE = 0V; used in positive-ECL configurations |
| VEE | Negative Supply Rail | Accepts –3.0V to –5.5V when VCC = 0V; used in traditional negative-ECL systems |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 4-input OR/NOR logic function | Single-gate implementation of both OR and NOR truth tables via complementary outputs-reduces board space vs discrete gates |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ECL logic gate applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MC10EP01DTG | Same 4-input OR/NOR function, but in SOIC-8; no internal pulldowns-requires external biasing | Limited to commercial temp (0°C to +70°C); not rated for industrial ambient extremes | Select when SOIC footprint is required and external pull-downs are acceptable in controlled lab environments |
| SN65ELT22D | LVDS-compatible dual OR gate; 3.3V-only supply; 2.5ns propagation delay-slower than SY10EP01VKI-TR | Designed for LVDS interface layers, not ECL signal chains; incompatible voltage thresholds | Choose only for LVDS-based systems where ECL interoperability is not required |
Compared with MC10EP01DTG and SN65ELT22D, the SY10EP01VKI-TR uniquely combines industrial temperature rating, integrated input pulldowns, and 230ps propagation delay-making it the only option for ruggedized, high-speed ECL logic in telecom infrastructure.

FAQ
What is the supply voltage configuration supported by SY10EP01VKI-TR?
The SY10EP01VKI-TR supports two mutually exclusive supply modes: (1) VCC = 0V with VEE = –3.0V to –5.5V (traditional negative-ECL), or (2) VCC = 3.0V to 5.5V with VEE = 0V (positive-ECL). Both configurations deliver identical logic behavior and AC performance. The SY10EP01VKI-TR must never be operated with both rails simultaneously energized outside these defined configurations.
Does SY10EP01VKI-TR require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its inputs?
No. The SY10EP01VKI-TR integrates 75kΩ internal pulldown resistors on all D0–D3 inputs. This ensures a defined LOW state when inputs are left floating-eliminating the need for external biasing components. The SY10EP01VKI-TR Q output also defaults LOW under open-input conditions, simplifying system-level fault tolerance design.
What is the meaning of "KI" in SY10EP01VKI-TR and how does it affect packaging?
The "KI" suffix in SY10EP01VKI-TR denotes the industrial temperature grade (–40°C to +85°C) and K8-1 MSOP-8 package with NiPdAu Pb-free finish. Unlike Z-suffix SOIC variants, the KI version uses a smaller 3mm × 3mm MSOP body with thermal pad-enabling higher density layouts in space-constrained optical modules. The SY10EP01VKI-TR is supplied in tape-and-reel format (TR) for automated assembly.
Can SY10EP01VKI-TR drive 50Ω transmission lines directly?
Yes. The SY10EP01VKI-TR is characterized with 50Ω loads referenced to VCC – 2.0V, matching standard ECL-100K termination practices. Its output stage delivers ±50mA continuous current and supports 20%–80% rise/fall times of 60–180ps-enabling direct connection to controlled-impedance PCB traces without external buffering. The SY10EP01VKI-TR maintains specified VOL/VOH levels under this loading condition.
How does the truth table of SY10EP01VKI-TR define OR and NOR functionality?
The SY10EP01VKI-TR implements OR logic on Q (Q = HIGH if any D0–D3 is HIGH) and NOR logic on /Q (/Q = HIGH only if all D0–D3 are LOW). The truth table confirms that Q goes HIGH for any single HIGH input, while /Q remains HIGH exclusively when all four inputs are LOW. This dual-output structure allows simultaneous access to both logic functions without additional gates-the SY10EP01VKI-TR thus serves as a compact, high-speed logic building block.
