GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADN4663 is a dual, CMOS, low voltage differential
signaling (LVDS) line driver offering data rates of over
600 Mbps (300 MHz), and ultralow power consumption.
It features a flow-through pinout for easy PCB layout and
separation of input and output signals.
The device accepts low voltage TTL/CMOS logic signals and
converts them to a differential current output of typically
±3.1 mA for driving a transmission medium such as a
twisted-pair cable. The transmitted signal develops a differential
voltage of typically ±355 mV across a termination resistor at the
receiving end, and this is converted back to a TTL/CMOS logic
level by a line receiver.
The ADN4663 and a companion receiver offer a new solution
to high speed point-to-point data transmission, and a low
power alternative to emitter-coupled logic (ECL) or positive
emitter-coupled logic (PECL).

THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADN4663 is a dual line driver for low voltage differential
signaling. It takes a single-ended 3 V logic signal and converts
it to a differential current output. The data can then be transmitted
for considerable distances, over media such as a twisted-pair cable
or PCB backplane, to an LVDS receiver, where it develops a voltage
across a terminating resistor, R
. This resistor is chosen to match
T
the characteristic impedance of the medium, typically around
100 . The differential voltage is detected by the receiver and
converted back into a single-ended logic signal.
When D
(current source) through R
is high (Logic 1), current flows out of the D
INx
and back into the D
T
OUTx−
pin
OUTx+
pin (current
sink). At the receiver, this current develops a positive differential
voltage across R
in a Logic 1 at the receiver output. When D
sinks current and D
voltage across R
(with respect to the inverting input) and results
T
is low, D
INx
sources current; a negative differential
OUTx−
results in a Logic 0 at the receiver output.
T
OUTx+
The output drive current is between ±2.5 mA and ±4.5 mA
(typically ±3.55 mA), developing between ±250 mV and ±450 mV
across a 100 termination resistor. The received voltage is centered
around the receiver offset of 1.2 V. Therefore, the noninverting
receiver input is typically (1.2 V + [355 mV/2]) = 1.377 V, and
the inverting receiver input is (1.2 V − [355 mV/2]) = 1.023 V
for Logic 1. For Logic 0, the inverting and noninverting output
voltages are reversed. Note that because the differential voltage
reverses polarity, the peak-to-peak voltage swing across R
is
T
twice the differential voltage.
Current mode drivers offer considerable advantages over
voltage mode drivers such as RS-422 drivers. The operating
current remains fairly constant with increased switching
frequency, whereas that of voltage mode drivers increase
exponentially in most cases. This is caused by the overlap
as internal gates switch between high and low, which causes
currents to flow from the device power supply to ground.
A current mode device simply reverses a constant current
between its two outputs, with no significant overlap currents.
This is similar to emitter-coupled logic (ECL) and positive
emitter-coupled logic (PECL), but without the high quiescent
current of ECL and PECL.
