LOW SKEW, 1-TO-4 DIFFERENTIAL-TO-LVHSTL FANOUT BUFFER APPLICATION INFORMATION WIRING THE DIFFERENTIAL INPUT TO ACCEPT SINGLE ENDED LEVELS Figure 9 shows how the differential input can be wired to accept single ended levels. The reference voltage V_REF ~ VDD/2 is generated by the bias resistors R1, R2 and C1. This bias circuit should be located as close as possible to the input pin. The ratio of R1 and R2 might need to be adjusted to position the V_REF in the center of the input voltage swing. For example, if the input clock swing is only 2.5V and VDD = 3.3V, V_REF should be 1.25V and R2/R1 = 0.609.

B JULY 31, 2001 ICS8523 Integrated Circuit Systems, Inc. LOW SKEW, 1-TO-4 DIFFERENTIAL-TO-LVHSTL FANOUT BUFFER POWER CONSIDERATIONS This section provides information on power dissipation and junction temperature for the ICS8523. Equations and example calculations are also provided. 1. Power Dissipation. The total power dissipation for the ICS8523 is the sum of the core power plus the power dissipated in the load(s). The following is the power dissipation for VDD = 3.3V + 5% = 3.465V, which gives worst case results. NOTE: Please refer to Section 3 for details on calculating power dissipated in the load. * * Power (core)MAX = VDD_MAX * IDD_MAX = 3.465V * 50mA = 173.3mW Power (outputs)MAX = 32mW/Loaded Output pair If all outputs are loaded, the total power is 4 * 32mW = 128mW Total Power_MAX (3.465V, with all outputs switching) = 173.3mW + 128mW = 301.3mW 2. Junction Temperature. Junction temperature, Tj, is the temperature at the junction of the bond wire and bond pad and directly affects the reliability of the device. The maximum recommended junction temperature for HiPerClockSTM devices is 125C. The equation for Tj is as follows: Tj = JA * Pd_total + TA Tj = Junction Temperature JA = junction-to-ambient thermal resistance Pd_total = Total device power dissipation (example calculation is in section 1 above) TA = Ambient Temperature In order to calculate junction temperature, the appropriate junction-to-ambient thermal resistance JA must be used . Assuming a moderate air flow of 200 linear feet per minute and a multi-layer board, the appropriate value is 66.6C/W per Table 6 below. Therefore, Tj for an ambient temperature of 70C with all outputs switching is: 70C + 0.301W * 66.6C/W = 90.05C. This is well below the limit of 125C This calculation is only an example. Tj will obviously vary depending on the number of loaded outputs, supply voltage, air flow, and the type of board (single layer or multi-layer). Table 6.

LVHSTL output driver circuit and termination are shown in Figure 10. VDD Q1 VOUT RL 50 FIGURE 10 - LVHSTL DRIVER CIRCUIT AND TERMINATION To calculate worst case power dissipation into the load, use the following equations which assume a 50 load, and a termination voltage of V - 2V. DD Pd_H is power dissipation when the output drives high. Pd_L is the power dissipation when the output drives low. Pd_H = (V /R ) * (V OH_MAX Pd_L = (V OL_MAX * L -V DD_MAX /R ) * (V L -V DD_MAX For logic high, V ) OL_MAX =V OUT * ) OH_MAX For logic low, V =V OUT =V OH_MAX OL_MAX - 1.2V DD_MAX =V - 0.4V DD_MAX Pd_H = (1.2V/50) * (2V - 1.2V) = 19.2mW Pd_L = (0.4V/50) * (2V - 0.4V) = 12.8mW Total Power Dissipation per output pair = Pd_H + Pd_L = 32mW 8523BG www.icst.com/products/hiperclocks.html 10 REV.
