Point-to-Point Application impedance of the media is in the range of 100. A termination resistor of 100 should be selected to match the media, and is located as close to the receiver input pins as possible. The termination resistor converts the driver output (current mode) into a voltage that is detected by the receiver. Other configurations are possible such as a multi-receiver configuration, but the effects of a mid-stream connector(s), cable stub(s), and other impedance discontinuities as well as ground shifting, noise margin limits, and total termination loading must be taken into account. The DS90LV018A differential line receiver is capable of detecting signals as low as 100 mV, over a 1V common-mode range centered around +1.2V. This is related to the driver Applications Information General application guidelines and hints for LVDS drivers and receivers may be found in the following application notes: LVDS Owner's Manual (lit #550062-001), AN808, AN1035, AN977, AN971, AN916, AN805, AN903. LVDS drivers and receivers are intended to be primarily used in an uncomplicated point-to-point configuration as is shown in Figure 3. This configuration provides a clean signaling environment for the fast edge rates of the drivers. The receiver is connected to the driver through a balanced media which may be a standard twisted pair cable, a parallel pair cable, or simply PCB traces. Typically the characteristic 3 www.national.com DS90LV018A Switching Characteristics DS90LV018A Applications Information should remain constant to avoid discontinuities in differential impedance. Minor violations at connection points are allowable. (Continued) offset voltage which is typically +1.2V. The driven signal is centered around this voltage and may shift 1V around this center point. The 1V shifting may be the result of a ground potential difference between the driver's ground reference and the receiver's ground reference, the common-mode effects of coupled noise, or a combination of the two. The AC parameters of both receiver input pins are optimized for a recommended operating input voltage range of 0V to +2.4V (measured from each pin to ground). The device will still operate for receivers input voltages up to VCC, but exceeding VCC will turn on the ESD protection circuitry which will clamp the bus voltages. TERMINATION Use a termination resistor which best matches the differential impedance or your transmission line. The resistor should be between 90 and 130. Remember that the current mode outputs need the termination resistor to generate the differential voltage. LVDS will not work without resistor termination. Typically, connecting a single resistor across the pair at the receiver end will suffice. Surface mount 1% - 2% resistors are the best. PCB stubs, component lead, and the distance from the termination to the receiver inputs should be minimized. The distance between the termination resistor and the receiver should be < 10mm (12mm MAX). POWER DECOUPLING RECOMMENDATIONS Bypass capacitors must be used on power pins. Use high frequency ceramic (surface mount is recommended) 0.1F and 0.001F capacitors in parallel at the power supply pin with the smallest value capacitor closest to the device supply pin. Additional scattered capacitors over the printed circuit board will improve decoupling. Multiple vias should be used to connect the decoupling capacitors to the power planes. A 10F (35V) or greater solid tantalum capacitor should be connected at the power entry point on the printed circuit board between the supply and ground. FAIL-SAFE FEATURE The LVDS receiver is a high gain, high speed device that amplifies a small differential signal (20mV) to CMOS logic levels. Due to the high gain and tight threshold of the receiver, care should be taken to prevent noise from appearing as a valid signal. The receiver's internal fail-safe circuitry is designed to source/sink a small amount of current, providing fail-safe protection (a stable known state of HIGH output voltage) for floating, terminated or shorted receiver inputs. PC BOARD CONSIDERATIONS Use at least 4 PCB board layers (top to bottom): LVDS signals, ground, power, TTL signals. Isolate TTL signals from LVDS signals, otherwise the TTL signals may couple onto the LVDS lines. It is best to put TTL and LVDS signals on different layers which are isolated by a power/ground plane(s). 1. Open Input Pins. The DS90LV018A is a single receiver device. Do not tie the receiver inputs to ground or any other voltages. The input is biased by internal high value pull up and pull down resistors to set the output to a HIGH state. This internal circuitry will guarantee a HIGH, stable output state for open inputs. 2. Terminated Input. If the driver is disconnected (cable unplugged), or if the driver is in a power-off condition, the receiver output will again be in a HIGH state, even with the end of cable 100 termination resistor across the input pins. The unplugged cable can become a floating antenna which can pick up noise. If the cable picks up more than 10mV of differential noise, the receiver may see the noise as a valid signal and switch. To insure that any noise is seen as common-mode and not differential, a balanced interconnect should be used. Twisted pair cable will offer better balance than flat ribbon cable. 3. Shorted Inputs. If a fault condition occurs that shorts the receiver inputs together, thus resulting in a 0V differential input voltage, the receiver output will remain in a HIGH state. Shorted input fail-safe is not supported across the common-mode range of the device (GND to 2.4V). It is only supported with inputs shorted and no external common-mode voltage applied. External lower value pull up and pull down resistors (for a stronger bias) may be used to boost fail-safe in the presence of higher noise levels. The pull up and pull down resistors should be in the 5k to 15k range to minimize loading and waveform distortion to the driver. The common-mode bias point should be set to approximately 1.2V (less than 1.75V) to be compatible with the internal circuitry. Keep drivers and receivers as close to the (LVDS port side) connectors as possible. DIFFERENTIAL TRACES Use controlled impedance traces which match the differential impedance of your transmission medium (ie. cable) and termination resistor. Run the differential pair trace lines as close together as possible as soon as they leave the IC (stubs should be < 10mm long). This will help eliminate reflections and ensure noise is coupled as commo-mode. In fact, we have seen that differential signals which are 1mm apart radiate far less noise than traces 3mm apart since magnetic field cancellation is much better with the closer traces. In addition, noise induced on the differential lines is much more likely to appear as common-mode which is rejected by the receiver. Match electrical lengths between traces to reduce skew. Skew between the signals of a pair means a phase difference between signals which destroys the magnetic field cancellation benefits of differential signals and EMI will result! (Note that the velocity of propagation, v = c/E r where c (the speed of light) = 0.2997mm/ps or 0.0118 in/ps). Do not rely solely on the autoroute function for differential traces. Carefully review dimensions to match differential impedance and provide isolation for the differential lines. Minimize the number of vias and other discontinuities on the line. Avoid 90 turns (these cause impedance discontinuities). Use arcs or 45 bevels. Within a pair of traces, the distance between the two traces should be minimized to maintain common-mode rejection of the receivers. On the printed circuit board, this distance www.national.com PROBING LVDS TRANSMISSION LINES Always use high impedance ( > 100k), low capacitance ( < 2 pF) scope probes with a wide bandwidth (1 GHz) scope. Improper probing will give deceiving results. 4 reduction and signal quality. Balanced cables tend to generate less EMI due to field canceling effects and also tend to pick up electromagnetic radiation a common-mode (not differential mode) noise which is rejected by the receiver. For cable distances < 0.5M, most cables can be made to work effectively. For distances 0.5M d 10M, CAT 3 (category 3) twisted pair cable works well, is readily available and relatively inexpensive. (Continued) CABLES AND CONNECTORS, GENERAL COMMENTS When choosing cable and connectors for LVDS it is important to remember: Use controlled impedance media. The cables and connectors you use should have a matched differential impedance of about 100. They should not introduce major impedance discontinuities. Balanced cables (e.g. twisted pair) are usually better than unbalanced cables (ribbon cable, simple coax) for noise Pin Descriptions Pin No. Name 1 RIN- Inverting receiver input pin Description 2 RIN+ Non-inverting receiver input pin 7 ROUT Receiver output pin 8 VCC Power supply pin, +3.3V 0.3V 5 GND Ground pin 3, 4, 6 NC No connection Ordering Information Operating Package Type/ Temperature Number -40C to +85C SOP/M08A Order Number DS90LV018ATM Typical Performance Characteristics Output High Voltage vs Power Supply Voltage Output Low Voltage vs Power Supply Voltage 10007807 10007808 5 www.national.com DS90LV018A Applications Information DS90LV018A Typical Performance Characteristics (Continued) Output Short Circuit Current vs Power Supply Voltage Differential Transition Voltage vs Power Supply Voltage 10007810 10007809 Power Supply Current vs Frequency Power Supply Current vs Ambient Temperature 10007812 10007811 Differential Propagation Delay vs Power Supply Voltage Differential Propagation Delay vs Ambient Temperature 10007813 www.national.com 10007814 6 DS90LV018A Typical Performance Characteristics (Continued) Differential Skew vs Power Supply Voltage Differential Skew vs Ambient Temperature 10007815 10007816 Differential Propagation Delay vs Differential Input Voltage Differential Propagation Delay vs Common-Mode Voltage 10007817 10007818 Transition Time vs Power Supply Voltage Transition Time vs Ambient Temperature 10007819 10007820 7 www.national.com DS90LV018A Typical Performance Characteristics (Continued) Differential Propagation Delay vs Load Transition Time vs Load 10007823 10007822 Differential Propagation Delay vs Load Transition Time vs Load 10007824 10007821 www.national.com 8 DS90LV018A 3V LVDS Single CMOS Differential Line Receiver Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted 8-Lead (0.150" Wide) Molded Small Outline Package, JEDEC Order Number DS90LV018ATM NS Package Number M08A National does not assume any responsibility for use of any circuitry described, no circuit patent licenses are implied and National reserves the right at any time without notice to change said circuitry and specifications.
