data is valid on the rising edge of the input clock. The
output data has an internal latency of 5.5 clock cycles.
Figure 6 also shows the relationship between the input
clock parameters and the valid output data.

Applications Information

Figure 7 shows a typical application circuit containing a
single-ended to differential converter. The internal refer-
ence provides a V

DD

/2 output voltage for level shifting

purposes. The input is buffered and then split to a volt-

age follower and inverter. A lowpass filter follows the op
amps to suppress some of the wideband noise associ-
ated with high-speed op amps. The user may select the
R

ISO

and C

IN

values to optimize the filter performance

to suit a particular application. For the application in
Figure 7, an RISO of 50

Ω is placed before the capaci-

tive load to prevent ringing and oscillation. The 22pF
C

IN

capacitor acts as a small bypassing capacitor.
