Description ¡El EP16VC is a differential receiver/driver. ¡El device is functionally equivalent to the EP16 and LVEP16 devices but with high gain and enable output. ¡El EP16VC provides an EN input which is synchronized with the data input (D) signal in a way that provides glitchless gating of the QHG and QHG outputs. When the EN signal is LOW, the input is passed to the outputs and the data output equals the data input. When the data input is HIGH and EN goes HIGH, it will force the QHG LOW and the QHG HIGH on the next negative transition of the data input. If the data input is LOW when the EN goes HIGH, the next data transition to a HIGH is ignored and QHG remains LOW and QHG remains HIGH. ¡El next positive transition of the data input is not passed on to the data outputs under these conditions. ¡El QHG and QHG outputs remain in their disabled state as long as the EN input is held HIGH. ¡El EN input has no influence on the Q output and the data input is passed on (inverted) to this output whether EN is HIGH or LOW. This configuration is ideal for crystal oscillator applications where the oscillator can be free running and gated on and off synchronously without adding extra counts to the output. ¡El VBB/D pin is internally dedicated and available for differential interconnect. VBB/D may rebias AC coupled inputs. When used, decouple VBB/D and VCC via a 0.01 F capacitor and limit current sourcing or sinking to 1.5 mA. When not used, VBB/D should be left open. ¡El 100 Series contains temperature compensation
