Low Skew,1-to-8 Differential/LVCMOS-to-LVCMOS Fanout Buffer

The 8308I is a low-skew, 1-to-8 Fanout Buffer. The 8308I has two selectable clock inputs. The CLK, nCLK pair can accept most differential input levels. The LVCMOSCLK can accept LVCMOS or LVTTL input levels. The low impedance LVCMOS/ LVTTL outputs are designed to drive 50? series or parallel terminated transmission lines. The effective fanout can be increased from 8 to 16 by utilizing the ability of the outputs to drive two series terminated transmission lines. The 8308I is characterized for 3.3V core/3.3V output, 3.3V core/2.5V output or 2.5V core/2.5V output operation. Guaranteed output and part-part skew characteristics make the 8308I ideal for those clock distribution applications requiring well defined performance and repeatability.
