Maxim Integrated
Note 1: Current into a pin is defined as positive. Current out of a pin is defined as negative. All voltages are referenced to ground
except V
TH
and V
TL
.
Note 2: Maximum and minimum limits overtemperature are guaranteed by design and characterization. Devices are production
tested at T
A
= +25°C.
Note 3: AC parameters are guaranteed by design and characterization, and are not production tested. Limits are set at ±6 sigma.
Note 4: C
L
includes probe and test jig capacitance.
Note 5: RCIP is the period of RxCLK IN. RCOP is the period of RxCLK OUT. RCIP = RCOP.
Note 6: RSKM measured with
150ps cycle-to-cycle jitter on RxCLK IN.
