19-3550; Rev 0; 1/05 Delay Lines for High-Speed Clock Distribution Systems The MAX3620 series is a family of high-performance passive delay lines for use in QDR/QDRII synchronous memory systems. These delay lines support high-speed transceiver logic (HSTL) source terminated transmission with an unterminated load at the receiver, and deliver accurate delays of 0.75ns, 1.00ns, 1.25ns, and 1.50ns for the generation of the quarter clock phase. The MAX3620 is offered in a small 3mm x 3mm package which contains two delay lines of equal length that can be driven either differentially or single-endedly.

See Table 1 for more information.) Load and source resistance = 50Ω ±1%, capacitance ≤ 1pF. Input transition time (20% to 80%) = 300ps. The clock frequency is the maximum operational clock frequency listed in Table 1. Load and source resistance = 50Ω ±1%, capacitance ≤ 1pF. Insertion loss is relative to a lossless 50Ω transmission line. Ideally, an insertion loss of 0dB will result in 0.5 times the opencircuit transmitter output. Note 5: Source termination only (no-load termination), 5pF and 20kΩ at load, 300ps input transition time (20% to 80%). Load capacitance dominates performance. Note 6: Insertion loss is relative to an ideal open 20kΩ load. Ideally, an insertion loss of 0dB will result in 0.998 times the open-circuit transmitter output.

Functional Diagram Detailed Description The MAX3620 delay lines are transmission lines constructed with a series of L-C sections. Figure 1 is a functional diagram of the MAX3620. The distributed architecture of the MAX3620 allows for symmetrical impedance looking into each terminal. When the MAX3620 is used in single-ended operation, leave unused input/output open. _______________________________________________________________________________________ 5 MAX3620 Typical Operating Characteristics (continued) (TA = +25°C, unless otherwise noted.)
