General Description

The

Comlinear CLC2500 is a sub-nanosecond dual comparator with propaga-

tion delay variation less than 100ps from 5 to 50mV input overdrive voltage.

The input slew rate is 10 V/ns and the differential input stage has a common-

mode input range of -2.5V to 4V.

The

Comlinear CLC2500 has ECL-compatible complementary digital outputs

that are capable of driving 50Ω terminated transmission lines. The CLC2500

is ideally suited for automated test equipment (ATE) applications, high-speed

instrumentation, and peak detection.
