Dave, And to follow up, whether or not the pins of the ON Semi MC100EL07 are designated as differential, they should function correctly in an IBIS simulator with the proper bias termination for the open emitter transistors. Tom has indicated that they currently work just fine in Hyperlynx 6.1 and the Beta 7.0 simulators. It is, however, possible that there are problems with earlier releases of Hyperlynx. My understanding is that the IBIS driver simulation algorithms have changed significantly in the past year. best regards, scott -- Scott McMorrow Teraspeed Consulting Group LLC 2926 SE Yamhill St. Portland, OR 97214 (503) 239-5536 http://www.teraspeed.com Scott McMorrow wrote: >Dave, > >Since this is a standard ECL device, the outputs can be used either in a >differential or a single-ended fashion.
