Low-skew clock distribution at 3 GHz
The ON Semiconductor MC100ES6226FA is a low skew clock driver in the 100ES series, combining a fanout buffer and a divider in a single 32-LQFP package. It accepts a single LVPECL input and delivers up to nine outputs in LVCMOS or LVPECL format, with differential signaling maintained throughout. This makes it a natural fit for high-speed telecom line cards, data-center switches, and test equipment where clock fanout must stay clean at frequencies up to 3 GHz.
Thermal and lifecycle profile
Rated for 0°C to 110°C operating temperature, this part covers indoor telecom and datacom equipment but not extended industrial or automotive environments. Production status is active per the manufacturer, so no near-term last-time-buy risk. RoHS non-compliant — designs bound for EU or RoHS-regulated markets need an exemption or a lead-free alternate. Confirm the exemption scope with your compliance team before freezing the BOM.
Sourcing and BOM fit
For a BOM line that needs a 1:9 fanout buffer with LVPECL input and dual-output standards at 3 GHz, the MC100ES6226FA is a confirmed active choice with no imminent EOL. The 32-LQFP footprint is common enough that a second-source qualification is straightforward if lead-time risk is a concern.
