grounded), allowing high-performance clock or data
distribution in systems with a nominal 5.0V supply. For
interfacing to differential (LV)ECL, the V
EE
range is
-3.0V to -5.5V (with V
CC
grounded). Output levels are
referenced to V
CC
and are considered (LV)PECL or
(LV)ECL, depending on the level of the V
CC
supply.
With V
CC
connected to a positive supply and V
EE
con-
nected to ground, the outputs are (LV)PECL. The out-
puts are (LV)ECL when V
CC
is connected to ground
and V
EE
is connected to a negative supply.
Input Bias Resistors
When the CLK and
CLK
inputs are open, the internal
bias resistors set the inputs to differential low state. The
inverting input (
CLK
) is biased with a 45k
pullup to
V
CC
and a 45k
pulldown to V
EE
. The noninverting
input (CLK) and SCLK are biased with a 45k
pullup to
V
CC
and a 30k
pulldown to V
EE
. The single-ended
inputs (SEL,
EN
) are each biased with a 30k
pulldown
to V
EE
and a 30k
pullup to V
CC
.
Differential Clock Input Limits
The maximum magnitude of the differential signal applied
to the differential clock input is 3.0V. This limit also
applies to the difference between any reference voltage
input and a single-ended input. Specifications for the high
and low voltages of a differential input (V
IHD
and V
ILD
)
and the differential input voltage (V
IHD
- V
ILD
) apply
simultaneously.
Single-Ended Clock Input and V
BB
The differential clock input can be configured to accept
a single-ended input. This is accomplished by connect-
ing the on-chip reference voltage, V
BB
, to the inverting
or noninverting input of the differential input as a refer-
ence. For example, the differential CLK,
CLK
input is
converted to a noninverting, single-ended input by con-
necting V
BB
to
CLK
and connecting the single-ended
input signal to CLK. Similarly, an inverting configuration
is obtained by connecting V
BB
to CLK and connecting
the single-ended input to
CLK
. With a differential input
configured as single ended (using V
BB
), the single-
ended input can be driven to V
CC
and V
EE
or with a
single-ended (LV)PECL/(LV)ECL signal. Note that the
single-ended input must be least V
BB
±95mV or a dif-
ferential input of at least 95mV to switch the outputs to
the V
OH
and V
OL
levels specified in the
DC Electrical
Characteristics
table.
When using the V
BB
reference output, bypass it with a
0.01μF ceramic capacitor to V
CC
. If the V
BB
reference
is not used, leave it open. The V
BB
reference can
source or sink 0.5mA. Use V
BB
only for an input that is
on the same device as the V
BB
reference.
Applications Information
Supply Bypassing
Bypass V
CC
to V
EE
with high-frequency, surface-mount,
ceramic, 0.1μF and 0.01μF capacitors in parallel as
close to the device as possible, with the 0.01μF capaci-
tor closest to the device. Use multiple parallel vias to
minimize parasitic inductance. When using the V
BB
ref-
erence output, bypass it with a 0.01μF ceramic capaci-
tor to V
CC
(if the V
BB
reference is not used, it can be
left open).
Controlled-Impedance Traces
Input and output trace characteristics affect the perfor-
mance of the MAX9316A. Connect input and output
signals with 50
characteristic impedance traces.
Minimize the number of vias to prevent impedance dis-
continuities. Reduce reflections by maintaining the 50
characteristic impedance through cables and connec-
tors. Reduce skew within a differential pair by matching
the electrical length of the traces.
Output Termination
Terminate outputs with 50
to V
CC
- 2V or use an
equivalent Thevenin termination. When a single-ended
signal is taken from a differential output, terminate both
outputs. For example, if Q0 is used as a single-ended
output, terminate both Q0 and
Q0
.
