HMC955LC4B
v00.0511
32 Gbps, 1:2 DEMUX
WITH PROGRAMMABLE OUTPUT VOLTAGE
The HMC955LC4B is a 1 to 2 Demux designed to
support data transmission rates up to 32 Gbps. The
demux uses both rising and falling edges of the half-rate
clock to sample the data in sequence 01-02 and latches
the data on the rising edge into the differential outputs.
The demux also has high-speed clock synchronous
invert input that allows for scrambling of the data. The
HMC955LC4B also features an output level control pin,
VR, which allows for loss compensation or for signal-
level optimization.
All differential inputs to the HMC955LC4B are CML
and terminated on-chip with 50 Ohms to the positive
supply, GND, and may be AC or DC coupled. The
differential CML outputs are source terminated to 50
Ohms and may also be AC or DC coupled. Outputs can
be connected directly to a 50 Ohm ground-terminated
system or drive devices with CML logic input. The
HMC955LC4B operates from a single -3.3 V supply
and is available in a ceramic ROHS-compliant 4x4 mm
SMT package.

The circuit board used in the application should use
RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should
have 50 Ohm impedance while the package gro-
und leads should be connected directly to the
ground plane similar to that shown. The exposed
packaged base should be connected to Vee. A
sufficient number of via holes should be used to
connect the top and bottom ground planes. The
evaluation circuit board shown is available from
Hittite upon request. Install jumper on JP1 to short
VR to GND for normal operation.
