PRELIMINARY
For high performance termination of
DDR computer memory busses
Compatible to JEDEC JESD 79 and 8-9
DDR specifications
Ideal for active wideband termination of
SSTL-2 logic
Non-isolated design with 1.25V typ. @
±9 Amps output
3-5.5V input with 85% (typ.) efficiency
Miniature industry standard 1.6 x 0.5 x
0.2 inch surface mount or SIP package
Offers unique source/sink DDR require-
ments plus automatic reference tracking
Retains controlled impedances and
minimizes distortion of DDR digital data
and double-side clocks
Operates over –40 to +65°C with
200 lfm airflow
Standard vertical mount, optional
horizontal mount
Designed for efficient termination of SSTL-2 (Series Stub Terminated Logic)
signals in DDR (Dual Data Rate) memories, the DDR series non-isolated DC/DC
converters are powered by the bus supply of 3 to 5.5 Volts and are compatible to
industry-standard JEDEC JESD specifications for DDR memories. The DDR termi-
nators are supplied in a 1.6 by 0.5 inch surface-mount or SIP package measuring
only 0.2 inches high. Full output power (3.3VIN) is available up to +65°Celsius with
only 200 LFM (linear feet per minute) of cooling airflow. No heatsink is required.
Modern SSTL-2 logic uses reduced power voltages (typically 2.5 Volts), high
switching currents and a relatively narrow voltage threshold window for logic switch-
ing. These factors contribute to the 266MHz data transfer rate. The Vtt termination
voltage output of the DDR operates approximately at the midpoint voltage of the bus
(i.e, about 1.25V) and therefore will either source or sink current up to 9 Amps. To
maintain a reliable window in the logic threshold, the design tracks the Vref input volt-
age at high bandwidth, operating typically at one half the bus Vddq voltage of 2.5V. In
addition, the DDR series features a very high current slew rate of up to 40 Amps per
microsecond and fast settling while switching from source to sink or sink to source.
These features insure no data errors on the memory bus.
The DDR is supplied either in a vertical SIP (Single Inline Package) mount or
a horizontal pinned mount. The converter meets UL 60950, CSA and IEC safety
certifications and both conducted and radiated EMI (electromagnetic interference)
specifications. The output is rated for continuous short circuit protection and the on-
board controller will shut down the converter if the temperature reaches 110°C or
output current exceeds 11 Amps.
