The MAX9321/MAX9321A are low-skew differential receiver/drivers designed for clock and data distribution
The MAX9321 and MAX9321A are low‑skew differential receiver/drivers designed for high‑performance clock and data distribution. They support both differential HSTL/LVPECL (+2.25 V to +3.8 V) and differential LVECL (‑2.25 V to ‑3.8 V) operation and can be configured for single‑ended inputs using the on‑chip V BB reference.
Typical specifications include a 172 ps propagation delay, 20 ps part‑to‑part skew, 24 mA maximum supply current, and operation over –40 °C to +85 °C. The devices are offered in 8‑pin SOT23, SO, and µMAX packages and feature ESD protection greater than 2 kV (HBM).
