100397 Quad Differential ECL/TTL Translating Transc eiver with Latch
100397
Quad Differe nt ial ECL/TTL Translating Transceiver
with Latch
General Description
The 100397 is a quad latched transceiver designed to con-
vert TTL logic levels to differential F100K ECL logic levels
and vice ver sa. T his de vi ce was desig ned wit h the capa bi l-
ity of driving a differential 25 ECL load with cutoff capabil-
ity, and will sink a 64 mA TTL load. The 100397 is ideal f or
mixed technology applications utilizing either an ECL or
TTL backplane.
The direction of translation is set by the direction control
pin (DIR). The D IR pin on the 100397 accepts F 100K E CL
logic levels . An ECL LOW on DIR sets u p the ECL pi ns as
inputs and TTL pins as outputs. An E CL HIGH on DIR sets
up the TTL pins as inputs and ECL pins as outputs.
A LOW on the o utput en able inp ut pi n (OE) holds the E CL
output in a cut-off state and the TTL outputs at a high
impedance level. A HIGH on the latch enable input (LE)
latches the data at both inputs even though only one output
is enabled at the time. A LOW on LE makes the latch trans-
parent.
The cut-off state is designed to be more negative than a
normal ECL LOW level. This allows the output emitterfol-
lowers to turn off when the termination supply is 2.0V, pre-
senting a high impedance to the data bus. This high
impedance reduces termination power and prevents loss of
low state noise margin when several loads share the bus.
The 100397 is designed with FAST TTL output buffers,
featurin g optima l DC drive an d capabl e of quickly cha rging
and discharging highly capacitive loads. All inputs have
50 K pull-down resistors.
