The DS1100 series delay lines have five equally spaced taps providing delays from 4ns to 500ns. These devices are offered in 8-pin DIPs and surface-mount packages to save PC board area. Low cost and superior reliability over hybrid technology is achieved by the combination of a 100% silicon delay line and industry-standard DIP and SO packaging. The DS1100 5-tap silicon delay line reproduces the inputlogic state at the output after a fixed delay as specified by the extension of the part number after the dash. The DS1100 is designed to reproduce both leading and trailing edges with equal precision. Each tap is capable of driving up to ten 74LS loads. Dallas Semiconductor can customize standard products to meet special needs.
