DIFFERENTIAL ECL CLOCK INPUT
The clock inputs can be driven differentially with nominal –0.8V / -1.8V ECL levels.
In this mode, a low phase noise sinewave generator can be used to drive the clock inputs, followed by a power splitter (hybrid junction) in order
to obtain 180 degrees out of phase sinewave signals. Biasing tees can be used for offseting the common mode voltage to ECL levels.
Note : As the biasing tees propagation times are not matching, a tunable delay line is required in order to ensure the signals to be 180 degrees
out of phase especially at fast clock rates in the GSPS range.

SINGLE ENDED ECL CLOCK INPUT
In single–ended configuration enter on CLK ( resp. CLKB ) pin , with the inverted phase Clock input pin CLKB (respectively CLK) connected to -
1.3V through the 50 ohms termination resistor.
The inphase input amplitude is 1 Volt peak to peak, centered on -1.3 Volt common mode.
Single ended Clock input (ECL):
VCLK common mode = -1.3 Volt.
VCLKB = -1.3 Volt
