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 determines the relationship between the
input clock parameters and the valid output data.

Applications Information

Figure 7 depicts 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 low-pass filter, to suppress
some of the wideband noise associated with high-speed
op amps, follows the 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, a R

ISO

of 50

Ω is placed before the capacitive load to

prevent ringing and oscillation. The 22pF C

IN

capacitor

acts as a small bypassing capacitor.
