Non-Linear High Speed Termination IC
PACNLT101
Features
• 16 channel, dual rail clamping action in
a single package
• Provides bus termination independent of line
impedance or loading conditions
• Uses CAMD’s patented EZterm™ technology
• 24-pin QSOP package saves board space and
eases layout in space critical areas.
• One IC replaces and outperforms up to 32 discrete
components.
• Enable pin included
Product Description
CAMD’s non-linear termination IC is specifically designed to minimize overshoot/undershoot disturbances
caused by impedance mismatch reflections and noise on
high-speed transmission lines.
Reflections on high-speed data lines lead to voltage
overshoot and undershoot disturbances, which may
result in data loss or improper system operation. Resistive terminations, when used to terminate these highspeed data lines, increase power consumption and
degrade output levels, resulting in reduced noise immunity. Clamping-type termination is the best overall
solution for applications in which these may be considerations.
This highly integrated non-linear termination IC provides
very effective termination performance for high-speed
data lines under variable loading conditions. The device
supports up to 16 terminated lines per package – each
of which are clamped to both ground and power supply
rail. A typical application may use 4 devices to replace
(and outperform) 64 conventional Schottky diode pairs;
thus providing significant reductions in component and
assembly costs, improvements in manufacturing efficiency and reliability, and savings in allocated board area
for space-critical designs.
Application
• High speed, low voltage buses
