1:2 fanout buffer offers 50-Gbps data transfer

1:2 fanout buffer offers 50-Gbps data transfer

Suited for OC-768 and SDH STM-256 equipment, short-, intermediate-, and long-haul optical transmitter modules and more, the HMC-C062 1:2 fanout buffer module supports data transmission rates of 50 Gbits/s. The device operates with clock signals up to 30 GHz, and the input is broadband from dc to 30 GHz.

During normal operation, input data (or clock) is transferred to both output channels. Differential input signals to the device are terminated with 50 Ω to ground on-chip, and may be either ac or dc coupled. The differential outputs of the HMC-C062 may be either ac or dc coupled. Features include a propagation delay of 270 ps, rise and fall times of less than 11 ps, a deterministic jitter of 2 ps, and an additive random jitter of less than 0.2 ps. The part operates from –3.3 Vdc, while consuming 455 mW. ($2,990 ea/10-22 — available now.)
