5VECL 4-Bit Parallel/Serial Converter

The MC10E446 MC100E446 is an integrated 4-bit parallel to serial data converter. The device is designed to operate for NRZ data rates of up to 1.3 Gb/s. The chip generates a divide by 4 and a divide by 8 Clock for both 4-bit conversion and a two chip 8-bit conversion function. The conversion sequence was chosen to convert the parallel data into a serial stream from bit D0 to D3. A serial input is provided to cascade two E446 devices for 8 bit conversion applications. Note that the serial output data Clocks off of the negative input Clock transition. The SYNC input will asynchronously reset the internal Clock circuitry. This pin allows the user to reset the internal Clock conversion unit and thus select the start of the conversion process. By ON Semiconductor
