PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD8389 is a triple 6-channel LCD microdisplay delaylocked timing loop. As part of a closed-loop system, the AD8389
maintains a constant delay between the common input, DXI,
and each independent feedback reference, MONITxI.
The AD8389 consists of a selectable fixed delay element, a phase
detector, a charge pump, and six matched variable delay lines
per color. The phase detector, charge pump, and master delay
line form a closed loop when connected to a compatible LCD
microdisplay. Five additional delay lines track the master for a
complete set of matched timing signals.
The AD8389 dissipates 40 mW nominal power. The AD8389 is
offered in a 48-lead 7 mm × 7 mm LFCSP package and operates
over the commercial temperature range of 0°C to 85°C.

EXPOSED PADDLE
To ensure high reliability, the exposed paddle must be soldered
to GND.
MAXIMUM POWER DISSIPATION
The maximum power that can be safely dissipated by the
AD8389 is limited by its junction temperature. The maximum
2
safe junction temperature for plastic encapsulated devices as
determined by the glass transition temperature of the plastic is
approximately 150°C. Exceeding this limit temporarily may
cause a shift in the parametric performance due to a change in
the stresses exerted on the die by the package. Exceeding a
junction temperature of 175°C for an extended period can
result in device failure.
To ensure operation within the specified operating temperature
range, it is necessary to limit the maximum power dissipation as
follows:

ESD CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although
this product features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices
subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are
recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

Figure 6. AD8389 Application in the Red Channel of an LCD Projection System
The image quality of an LCD system is dependent on the timing
relationship between the control inputs, DX, CLX, ENBX(1–4),
and the video channels.
TFT delay and switching speed variations, due to temperature
variations and LCD aging, degrade image quality if not
compensated.
An internal reference TFT connected to an internal pull-up
resistor, as shown in Figure 6, characterizes the internal S/H
TFTs of the LCD and monitors switching speed and delay
variations due to aging and temperature. When the MON
output of an LCD that includes such an internal reference TFT
is connected to the reference input of the AD8389 delay-locked
timing loop, continuously optimized timing of the LCD is
maintained automatically.

OPERATION
As part of a closed loop, the AD8389 maintains a constant delay
between the common input, DXI, and each independent
feedback reference, MONITxI. The block diagram of such
closed-loop system is shown in Figure 6.
A constant delay, t
control inputs, is applied to the DXI input to approximate the
nominal, initially expected total delay, t
shifters and the LCD as shown in Table 5.

The external delay of a typical system is the sum of the level
shifter delay (20 ns typical) and the LCD delay, (typically in the
range of 20 ns to 120 ns). At a 75 MHz operating clock
frequency, the maximum expected total delay of 140 ns is equal
to 10.5 clock cycles, requiring COMPEDGE = 1, SLOW = 0 for
systems using negative active edge for DX.
