Data Sheet Comlinear CLC2000 (R) High Output Current Dual Amplifier APPLICATIONS n ADSL PCI modem cards n ADSL external modems n Cable drivers n Video line driver n Twisted pair driver/receiver General Description The Comlinear CLC2000 is a dual voltage feedback amplifier that offers 200mA of output current at 9.4Vpp. The CLC2000 is capable of driving signals to within 1V of the power rails. When connected as a differential line driver, the dual amplifier drives signals up to 18.8Vpp into a 25 load, which supports the peak upstream power levels for upstream full-rate ADSL CPE applications. The Comlinear CLC2000 can operate from single or dual supplies from 5V to 12V. It consumes only 7mA of supply current per channel. The combination of wide bandwidth, low noise, low distortion, and high output current capability makes the CLC2000 ideally suited for Customer Premise ADSL or video line driving applications.

To calculate the junction temperature, the package thermal resistance value ThetaJA (JA) is used along with the total die power dissipation. TJunction = TAmbient + (JA x PD) 0.1F + Power dissipation is an important consideration in applications with low impedance DC, coupled loads. Guidelines listed below can be used to verify that the particular application will not cause the device to operate beyond its intended operating range. Calculations below relate to a single amplifier. For the CLC2000, both amplifiers power contribution needs to be added for the total power dissipation. RL Rf 6.8F G = - (Rf/Rg) For optimum input offset voltage set R1 = Rf || Rg Figure 2. Typical Inverting Gain Circuit In order to determine PD, the power dissipated in the load needs to be subtracted from the total power delivered by the supplies. PD = Psupply - Pload Supply power is calculated by the standard power equation. Power Supply and Decoupling Psupply = Vsupply x I(RMS supply) The CLC2000 can be powered with a low noise supply anywhere in the range from +5V to +13V. Ensure adequate metal connections to power pins in the PC board layout with careful attention paid to decoupling the power supply. Vsupply = V(S+) - V(S-) High quality capacitors with low equivalent series resistance (ESR) such as multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) should be used to minimize supply voltage ripple and power dissipation. (c)2007-2010 CADEKA Microcircuits LLC Power delivered to a purely resistive load is: Pload = ((VLOAD)RMS2) / Rloadeff The effective load resistor will need to include the effect of the feedback network. For instance, Rloadeff in figure 1 would be calculated as: RL || (Rf + Rg) www.cadeka.com 13 Rev 1B -Vs Where TAmbient is the temperature of the working environment. Comlinear CLC2000 High Output Current Dual Amplifier Figures 1 and 2 illustrate typical circuit configurations for non-inverting, inverting, and unity gain topologies for dual supply applications. They show the recommended bypass capacitor values and overall closed loop gain equations. Two decoupling capacitors should be placed on each power pin with connection to a local PC board ground plane. A large, usually tantalum, 10F to 47F capacitor is required to provide good decoupling for lower frequency signals and to provide current for fast, large signal changes at the CLC2000 outputs. It should be within 0.25" of the pin. A secondary smaller 0.1F MLCC capacitor should located within 0.125" to reject higher frequency noise on the power line. Data Sheet These measurements are basic and are relatively easy to perform with standard lab equipment. For design purposes however, prior knowledge of actual signal levels and load impedance is needed to determine the dissipated power. Here, PD can be found from Quiescent power can be derived from the specified IS values along with known supply voltage, VSupply. Load power can be calculated as above with the desired signal amplitudes using: (VLOAD)RMS = VPEAK / 2 ( ILOAD)RMS = (VLOAD)RMS / Rloadeff The dynamic power is focused primarily within the output stage driving the load. This value can be calculated as: Driving Capacitive Loads Increased phase delay at the output due to capacitive loading can cause ringing, peaking in the frequency response, and possible unstable behavior. Use a series resistance, RS, between the amplifier and the load to help improve stability and settling performance. Refer to Figure 4. Input + PDYNAMIC = (VS+ - VLOAD)RMS x (ILOAD)RMS - Output CL Rf Assuming the load is referenced in the middle of the power rails or Vsupply/2. RL Rg Figure 3 shows the maximum safe power dissipation in the package vs. the ambient temperature for the 8 Lead SOIC packages. Figure 4. Addition of RS for Driving Capacitive Loads Table 1 provides the recommended RS for various capacitive loads. The recommended RS values result in <=1dB peaking in the frequency response.

However, be careful of stray capacitance on the input pins. In addition, increased airflow across the package can also help to reduce the effective JA of the package. (c)2007-2010 CADEKA Microcircuits LLC For a given load capacitance, adjust RS to optimize the tradeoff between settling time and bandwidth. In general, reducing RS will increase bandwidth at the expense of additional overshoot and ringing. www.cadeka.com Comlinear CLC2000 High Output Current Dual Amplifier PD = PQuiescent + PDynamic - PLoad In the event of a short circuit condition, the CLC2000 has circuitry to limit output drive capability to 1000mA. This will only protect against a momentary event. Extended duration under these conditions will cause junction temperatures to exceed 150C. Due to internal metallization constraints, continuous output current should be limited to 100mA. 14 Data Sheet Overdrive Recovery +Vs 3 Rf+ VIN - 4 Input 1 2 0 0 -1 -2 Output -2 Ro+=12.5 Vo+ 1:2 Rg RL=100 Rf- Output Voltage (V) Input Voltage (V) 1/2 CLC2000 6 VIN = 2.5Vpp G=5 2 + Ro-=12.5 VOUT Vo- 1/2 CLC2000 -Vs Figure 6: Typical Differential Transmission Line Driver -4 -3 -6 0 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 Time (ns) Figure 5. Overdrive Recovery Using the CLC2000 as a Differential Line Driver Differential circuits have several advantages over singleended configurations. These include better rejection of common mode signals and improvement of power-supply rejection. The use of differential signaling also improves overall dynamic performance. Total harmonic distortion (THD) is reduced by the suppression of even signal harmonics and the larger signal swings allow for an improved signal to noise ratio (SNR). (c)2007-2010 CADEKA Microcircuits LLC Data transmission techniques, such as ADSL, utilize amplitude modulation techniques which are sensitive to output clipping. A signal's PEAK to RMS ratio, or Crest Factor (CF), can be used to determine the adequate peak signal levels to insure fidelity for a given signal. For an ADSL system, the signal consists of 256 independent frequencies with varying amplitudes. This results in a noise-like signal with a crest factor of about 5.3. If the driver does not have enough swing to handle the signal peaks, clipping will occur and amplitude modulated information can be corrupted, causing degradation in the signals Bit Error Rate. To determine the required swing, first use the specified load impedance to convert the RMS power to an RMS voltage. Then, multiply the RMS voltage by the crest factor to get the peak values. For example 13dBm, as referenced to 1mW, is ~20mW. 20mW into the 100 CAT5 impedance yields a RMS voltage of 1.413 VRMS . Using the ADSL crest factor of 5.3 yields ~ 7.5V peak signals. www.cadeka.com 15 Rev 1B The combination of good large signal bandwidth and high output drive capability makes the CLC2000 well suited for low impedance line driver applications, such as the upstream data path for a ADSL CPE modem. The dual channel configuration of the CLC2000 provides better channel matching than a typical single channel device, resulting in better overall performance in differential applications. When configured as a differential amplifier as in figure 6, it can easily deliver the 13dBm to a standard 100 twistedpair CAT3 or CAT5 cable telephone network, as required in a ADSL CPE application. For any transmission requirement, the fundamental design parameters needed are the effective impedance of the transmission line, the power required at the load, and knowledge concerning the content of the transmitted signal. The basic design of such a circuit is briefly outlined below, using the ADSL parameters as a guideline. Comlinear CLC2000 High Output Current Dual Amplifier An overdrive condition is defined as the point when either one of the inputs or the output exceed their specified voltage range. Overdrive recovery is the time needed for the amplifier to return to its normal or linear operating point. The recovery time varies, based on whether the input or output is overdriven and by how much the range is exceeded. The CLC2000 will typically recover in less than 40ns from an overdrive condition. Figure 5 shows the CLC2000 in an overdriven condition. Data Sheet Evalutaion Board Schematics Evaluation board schematics and layouts are shown in Figures 7-9. These evaluation boards are built for dual- supply operation. Follow these steps to use the board in a single-supply application: 1. Short -Vs to ground. 2. Use C3 and C4, if the -VS pin of the amplifier is not directly connected to the ground plane. In general, the CLC2000 can be used in any application where an economical and local hardwired connection is needed. For example, routing analog or digital video information for a in-cabin entertainment system. Networking of a local surveillance system also could be considered. Layout Considerations General layout and supply bypassing play major roles in high frequency performance. CADEKA has evaluation boards to use as a guide for high frequency layout and as aid in device testing and characterization. Follow the steps below as a basis for high frequency layout: * Include 6.8F and 0.1F ceramic capacitors for power supply decoupling * Place the 6.8F capacitor within 0.75 inches of the power pin * Place the 0.1F capacitor within 0.1 inches of the power pin Rev 1B * Remove the ground plane under and around the part, especially near the input and output pins to reduce parasitic capacitance Figure 7. CEB006 Schematic * Minimize all trace lengths to reduce series inductances Refer to the evaluation board layouts below for more information. Evaluation Board Information The following evaluation board is available to aid in the testing and layout of this device: Evaluation Board # CEB006 Products CLC2000 Figure 8. CEB006 Top View (c)2007-2010 CADEKA Microcircuits LLC www.cadeka.com Comlinear CLC2000 High Output Current Dual Amplifier Line coupling through a 1:2 transformer is used to realize these levels. Standard back termination is used to match the characteristic 100 impedance of the CAT5 cable. For proper power transfer, this requires an effective 1:4 impedance match of 25 at the inputs of the transformer. To account for the voltage drop of the impedance matching resistors, the signal levels at the output of the amplifier need to be doubled. Thus each amplifier will swing 3.75V about a centered common mode output voltage. 16 Data Sheet Comlinear CLC2000 High Output Current Dual Amplifier Figure 9.
