A unique architecture provides very stable propagation delays and low skew over a wide input common mode, input overdrive and ambient temperature range. Propagation delay is 18ns ± 3ns, while typically tPLH/tPHL skew is 500ps and channel-to-channel skew is 400ps. Each receiver translates differential input levels (VID ≥ 100mV) into valid CMOS and TTL output levels.
