Fig. 1 Functional Block Diagram
The temperature stable and broadband ASNT5051-KMC SiGe IC can be utilized as a high isolation selector switch and is intended for use in high-speed measurement / test equipment. When The IC shown in Fig. 1 can route one of its differential data input signals d0p/d0n or d1p/d1n to its differential output outp/outn while effectively blocking the other data input with high isolation. Selection of a specific data input is achieved through an appropriate external DC biasing of the selector signal inputs cp/cn.
The part’s I/O’s support the CML logic interface with on chip 50Ω termination to vcc and may be used differentially, AC/DC coupled, single-ended, or in any combination. In DC-coupling mode, the input signal’s common mode voltage should comply with the specifications shown in electrical characteristics within the part’s datasheet. In the AC-coupling mode, the input termination provides the required common mode voltage automatically. The differential DC signaling mode is recommended for optimal performance.
