Highland announces digital fan-out buffer
Highland Technology
P730 digital fan-out buffer
Highland Technology introduces the Model P730 high-speed, multipurpose digital fan-out buffer.
Housed in an anodised aluminum enclosure, the P730 is suited to embedded OEM or benchtop use.
The P730 features two input banks, which users are able to route to two selected output banks, each consisting of four buffered electrical outputs.
Input and output levels are independently adjustable enabling compatibility with CMOS, TTL, LVDS, NECL, PECL, NIM and sine wave systems.
Fibre-optic inputs are optionally available, expanding electrical signal translation to include optical-to-electrical conversion, galvanic isolation and 1244.16Mb/s SONET OC-24 compatibility.
A fully DC-coupled signal path maintains signal integrity to greater than 1GHz pulse repetition rates.
Other features include: electrical logic input thresholds adjustable from -4V to +4V; input-to-output bank assignment is routable without moving cabling; programmable logic out bank voltages adjustable from -3.6V to +5V; stable, ultra-low jitter; and sub 350ps output edge transition times.
The device is suitable for buffering fast electrical or optical logic signals, time codes, 1 PPS GPS or atomic clock pulses and for facility clock distribution.
