The device is comprised of three blocks: 1) An input amplifier, 2) A latch, and 3) An RSECL Output Buffer. The latching circuit is level sensitive, and consists of a single high-speed latch. The HMC676LC3C comparator supports 10 Gb/s operation. The minimum input data latching pulse width is 60 ps. The HMC676LC3C operates in either Track (Transparent) Mode, where the output follows the logical value of the input, or the Latch (Hold) Mode, where the output value is held to the logical value of the comparison result of the input just prior to (LE - LE_bar) going HI. Track Mode operation is selected by either 1) (LE - LE_bar) LO, or 2) LE and LE_bar inputs floating. Latch Mode is selected by (LE - LE_bar) HI. The input impedance of the LE and LE_bar inputs is 8 k ohms, but these inputs can be terminated with 50 ohm external resistors if desired. When DC coupled, the clock inputs operate at an input common mode voltage of 2 V. In this case, any termination resistors would ideally be returned to 2 V. If the clock is AC coupled to the device, the input termination resistors can be returned to ground.
