DS15BR400,DS15BR401 DS15BR400/DS15BR401 4-Channel LVDS Buffer/Repeater with Pre-Emphasis Literature Number: SNLS224F DS15BR400/DS15BR401 4-Channel LVDS Buffer/Repeater with Pre-Emphasis General Description Features The DS15BR400/DS15BR401 are four channel LVDS buffer/ repeaters capable of datarates of up to 2 Gbps. High speed data paths and flow-through pinout minimize internal device jitter and simplify board layout, while pre-emphasis overcomes ISI jitter effects from lossy backplanes and cables. The differential inputs interface to LVDS, and Bus LVDS signals such as those on National's 10-, 16-, and 18- bit Bus LVDS SerDes, as well as CML and LVPECL. The differential inputs and outputs of the DS15BR400 are internally terminated with 100 resistors to improve performance and minimize board space. The DS15BR401 does not have input termination resistors. The repeater function is especially useful for boosting signals for longer distance transmission over lossy cables and backplanes. The DS15BR400/DS15BR401 are powered from a single 3.3V supply and consume 578 mW (typ). They operate over the full -40C to +85C industrial temperature range and are available in space saving LLP-32 and TQFP-48 packages.

Enable/Disable Time Diagram 7 www.national.com DS15BR400/DS15BR401 Pre-emphasis Control Selection Table Application Information PEM INTERNAL TERMINATIONS The DS15BR400 has integrated termination resistors on both the input and outputs. The inputs have a 100 resistor across the differential pair, placing the receiver termination as close as possible to the input stage of the device. The LVDS outputs also contain an integrated 100 ohm termination resistor, this resistor is used to minimize the output return loss and does not take the place of the 100 ohm termination at the inputs to the receiving device. The integrated terminations improve signal integrity and decrease the external component count resulting in space savings. The DS15BR401 has 100 output terminations only. 0 Off 1 On INPUT FAILSAFE BIASING Failsafe biasing of the LVDS link should be considered if the downstream Receiver is ON and enabled when the source is in TRI-STATE, powered off, or removed. This will set a valid known input state to the active receiver. This is accomplished by using a pull up resistor to VDD on the `plus' line, and a pull down resistor to GND on the `minus' line. Resistor values are in the 750 Ohm to several k range. The exact value depends upon the desired common mode bias point, termination resistor(s) and desired input differential voltage setting. Please refer to application note AN-1194 "Failsafe Biasing of LVDS interfaces" for more information and a general discussion. OUTPUT CHARACTERISTICS The output characteristics of the DS15BRB400/DS15BR401 have been optimized for point-to-point backplane and cable applications, and are not intended for multipoint or multidrop signaling. DECOUPLING Each power or ground lead of the DS15BR400 should be connected to the PCB through a low inductance path. For best results, one or more vias are used to connect a power or ground pin to the nearby plane. Ideally, via placement is immediately adjacent to the pin to avoid adding trace inductance. Placing power plane closer to the top of the board reduces effective via length and its associated inductance. Bypass capacitors should be placed close to VDD pins. Small physical size capacitors, such as 0402, X7R, surface mount capacitors should be used to minimize body inductance of capacitors. Each bypass capacitor is connected to the power and ground plane through vias tangent to the pads of the capacitor. An X7R surface mount capacitor of size 0402 has about 0.5 nH of body inductance. At frequencies above 30 MHz or so, X7R capacitors behave as low impedance inductors. To extend the operating frequency range to a few hundred MHz, an array of different capacitor values like 100 pF, 1 nF, 0.03 F, and 0.1 F are commonly used in parallel. The most effective bypass capacitor can be built using sandwiched layers of power and ground at a separation of 2-3 mils. With a 2 mil FR4 dielectric, there is approximately 500 pF per square inch of PCB. The center dap of the LLP package housing the DS15BR400 should be connected to a ground plane through an array of vias. The via array reduces the effective inductance to ground and enhances the thermal performance of the LLP package. POWERDOWN MODE The PWDN input activates a hardware powerdown mode. When the powerdown mode is active (PWDN=L), all input and output buffers and internal bias circuitry are powered off. When exiting powerdown mode, there is a delay associated with turning on bandgap references and input/output buffer circuits as indicated in the LVDS Output Switching Characteristics Upon asserting the power down function (PWDN = Low), and if the Pre-emphasis feature is enable, it is possible for the driver output to source current for a short amount of time lifting the output common mode to VDD. To prevent this occurrence, a load discharge pull down path can be used on either output (1 k to ground recommended). Alternately, a commonly deployed external failsafe network will also provide this path (see INPUT FAILSAFE BIASING). The occurrence of this is application dependant, and parameters that will effect if this is of concern include: AC coupling, use of the powerdown feature, presence of the discharge path, presence of the failsafe biasing, the usage of the pre-emphasis feature, and input characteristics of the downstream LVDS Receiver. PRE-EMPHASIS Pre-emphasis dramatically reduces ISI jitter from long or lossy transmission media. One pin is used to select the preemphasis level for all outputs, off or on. The pre-emphasis boost is approximately 6 dB at 750 MHz. www.national.com Pre-Emphasis 8 The DS15BR400 and DS15BR401 accept differential signals and allow simple AC or DC coupling. With a wide common mode range, the DS15BR400 and DS15BR401 can be DC-coupled with all common differential drivers (i.e. LVPECL, LVDS, CML). The following three figures illustrate typical DC-coupled interface to common differential drivers. Note that the DS15BR400 inputs are internally terminated with a 100 resistor while the DS15BR401 inputs are not, therefore the latter requires external input termination. 20188941 Typical LVDS Driver DC-Coupled Interface to DS15BR400 Input 20188942 Typical CML Driver DC-Coupled Interface to DS15BR400 Input 20188943 Typical LVPECL Driver DC-Coupled Interface to DS15BR400 Input 9 www.national.com DS15BR400/DS15BR401 INPUT INTERFACING DS15BR400/DS15BR401 OUTPUT INTERFACING The DS15BR400 and DS15BR401 output signals that are compliant to the LVDS standard. Their outputs can be DC-coupled to most common differential receivers. The following figure illustrates typical DC-coupled interface to common differential receivers and assumes that the receivers have high impedance inputs. While most differential receivers have a common mode input range that can accomodate LVDS compliant signals, it is recommended to check respective receiver's data sheet prior to implementing the suggested interface implementation. 20188944 Typical DS15BR400 Output DC-Coupled Interface to an LVDS, CML or LVPECL Receiver www.national.com 10 Power Supply Current vs. Data Rate Data Rate vs. Cable Length (0.25 UI Criteria) 20188920 20188923 Total Jitter vs. Ambient Temperature Data presented in this graph was collected using the DS15BR400EVK, a pair of RJ-45 to SMA adapter boards and various length Belden 1700a cables.
