Three new devices maintain ON Semiconductor's lead in high-performance logic with high frequency equalisation functions and crosspoint switches.

ON Semiconductor has expanded its high performance clock and data management portfolio with three new devices - the NB7VQ1006M, the NB4L7210 and the NB4N7132 - for high speed networking and ATE applications These devices maintain the company's leadership position in high performance logic by delivering new high frequency equalisation functions and crosspoint switches

"ON Semiconductor is continuing to expand its leadership in high performance clock and data distribution with the introduction of three ultra low jitter products targeting high speed networking and ATE applications", says Dan Huettl, General Manager of the ON Semiconductor Advanced Logic Division.

"Next generation systems require improved performance and increased design flexibility at lower voltage levels".

"We continue to provide customers with improved features at competitive prices that deliver the highest performance and best quality".

The NB7VQ1006M is the newest member of ON Semiconductor's GigaComm family.

It is a high-performance equaliser that combines signal loss compensation circuitry with an integrated 1:6 Common Mode Logic (CML) output fanout.

It is the first of a new cutting-edge 1.8V family of devices capable of interfacing to the latest 1.8V FPGAs and ASICs.

This device enables equalisation across 10in of FR4 transmission lines up to 10Gbit/s or 7.6GHz.

The operating temperature range is specified from -40 to +85C and across voltages from 1.71 to 2.625V to support lower voltage 1.8 and 2.5V operations.

Typical output-to-output skew is 10ps, with typical RMS clock jitter of 0.2ps.

The NB4L7210 is a clock or data 2x10 crosspoint switch that can be used to replace several smaller multiplexers or crosspoint switches up to 2GHz.

This device offers the flexibility of programming one of the two inputs to be independently routed to each of the 10 differential output pairs.

A 10bit Serial Data Interface (SDI) programs each output multiplex to asynchronously select either input clock, which reduces pin count and allows flexibility of design for system engineers.

The inputs accept LVCMOS, LVTTL, LVPECL, CML, or LVDS signals.

The integrated phase noise from 12kHz to 20MHz is 100fs at 622MHz, typical.

The NB4N7132 is a high performance serial link replicator which enables serial loop replication and serial loopback control commonly required in Fibre Channel, GbE, HDTV and SATA systems for datarates up to 1.5Gbit/s.

Other popular applications include routing between internal and external connectors in host bus adapters, and hot-pluggable links between redundant switch fabric cards.

The NB7VQ1006 is packaged in 24 pin QFN at a budgetary price of US $13.00.

The NB4L7210 is packaged in the QFN-52 at a budgetary price of US $12.60 per unit.

The NB4N7132 is packaged in the TSSOP-28 at budgetary price of US $3.67 per unit.
