General Description 
The  SY89467U  is  a  2.5/3.3V,  1:20  LVPECL  fanout 
buffer with a 2:1 differential input multiplexer (MUX). 
A  unique  Fail-Safe  Input  (FSI)  protection  prevents 
metastable  output  conditions  when  the  selected 
input  clock  fails  to  a  DC  voltage  (when  voltage 
between  the  pins  of  the  dierential  input  drops 
signicantly below 100mV). 
The differential input includes Micrel’s unique, 3-pin 
internal termination architecture that can interface to 
any differential signal (AC- or DC-coupled) as small 
as  100mV  (200mVPP)  without  any  level  shifting  or 
termination resistor networks in the signal path. The 
outputs are 800mV, LVPECL with fast rise/fall times 
guaranteed to be less than 270ps. 
The  SY89467U  operates  from  a  2.5V  ±5%  or  3.3V 
±10%  supply  and  is  guaranteed  over  the  full 
industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C. The 
SY89467U  is  part  of  Micrel’s  high-speed,  Precision 
Edge® product line.
