Level Clock/Data Input to
RSECL, High Gain
Receiver/Buffer/Translator
with Internal Termination

Description
The NB7L216 is a differential receiver/driver with high gain output
targeted for high frequency applications. The device is functionally
equivalent to the NBSG16 but with much higher gain output. This
highly versatile device provides 35 dB of gain up to 7 GHz.
Inputs incorporate internal 50 W termination resistors and accept
Negative ECL (NECL), Positive ECL (PECL), LVTTL, LVCMOS,
CML, or LVDS. Outputs are Reduced Swing ECL (RSECL), 400 mV.
The VBB pin is an internally generated voltage supply available to
this device only. VBB is used as a reference voltage for single-ended
NECL or PECL inputs. For all single-ended input conditions, the
unused complementary differential input should be connected to VBB
as a switching reference voltage. VBB may also rebias AC coupled
inputs. When used, decouple VBB via a 0.01 mF capacitor and limit
current sourcing or sinking to 0.5 mA. When not used, VBB output
should be left open.
