The 100316 is a quad differential line driver with output cutoff capability. The outputs are designed to drive a doubly terminated 50 transmission line (25 equivalent impedance) in an ECL backplane. The 100316 is ideal for driving low noise, differential ECL backplanes. A LOW on the output enable (OE) will set both the true and complementary outputs into a high impedance or cut-off state, isolating them from the backplane. The cut-off state is designed to be more negative than a normal ECL LOW state.
