>From its creator's forum posts, it appears to be a high slew rate comparator, that once "triggered" will pass the next pulse of an asynchronous 10 MHz square wave clock (2.5 ppm).
The first version used a micro for setting the threshold voltage. The micro was removed in the following generation. It is for generating fast edges for equipment (bandwidth) testing, not for precision timing. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. I was disappointed with the limited information I could dig-up. ~~ Andrew E.
