Description
These quad differential receivers accept digital data
over balanced transmission lines. They translate
differential input logic levels to TTL output logic
levels. All devices in this family have four receivers
with a common enable control. These receivers are
pin equivalent to the general-trade 26LS32, but offer
increased speed and decreased power consumption.
They replace the Agere 41 Series receivers.
* This feature is available on BRF1A and BRF2A.
The BRF1A device is the generic receiver in this
family and requires the user to supply external
resistors on the circuit board for impedance
matching.
The BRF2A is identical to the BRF1A, but has an
electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection circuit
added to significantly improve the ESD human-body
model (HBM) characteristics on the differential input
terminals.
The BRS2B is identical to the BRF2A, but has a
preferred state feature that places the output in the
high state when the inputs are open, shorted to
ground, or shorted to the power supply.
The BRR1A is equivalent to the BRF1A, but has a
110 Ω resistor connected across the differential
inputs. This eliminates the need for an external
resistor when terminating a 100 Ω impedance line.
This device is designed to work with the DP1A or
PNPA in point-to-point applications.
The BRT1A is equivalent to the BRF1A; however, it
is provided with a Y-type resistor network across the
differential inputs and terminated to ground. The
Y-type termination provides the best EMI results.
This device is not recommended for applications
where the differences in ground voltage between the
driver and the receiver exceed 1 V. This device is
designed to work with the DG1A or PNGA in point-topoint applications.
The powerdown loading characteristics of the
receiver input circuit are approximately 8 kΩ relative
to the power supplies; hence, they will not load the
transmission line when the circuit is powered down.
For those circuits with termination resistors, the line
will remain impedance matched when the circuit is
powered down.
The packaging options that are available for these
quad differential line drivers include a 16-pin DIP; a
16-pin, J-lead SOJ; a 16-pin, gull-wing small-outline
integrated circuit (SOIC); and a 16-pin, narrow-body,
gull-wing SOIC.

Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. These are
absolute stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in
excess of those given in the operational sections of the data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings for

1. The input levels and difference voltage provide zero noise immunity and should be tested only in a static, noise-free environment.
2. Outputs of unused receivers assume a logic 1 level when the inputs are left open. (It is recommended that all unused positive inputs
be tied to the positive power supply. No external series resistor is required.)
3. Test must be performed one lead at a time to prevent damage to the device.

Handling Precautions
CAUTION: This device is susceptible to damage as a result of ESD. Take proper precautions during both
handling and testing. Follow guidelines such as JEDEC Publication No. 108-A (Dec. 1988).
When handling and mounting line driver products, proper precautions should be taken to avoid exposure to ESD.
The user should adhere to the following basic rules for ESD control:
1. Assume that all electronic components are sensitive to ESD damage.
2. Never touch a sensitive component unless properly grounded.
3. Never transport, store, or handle sensitive components except in a static-safe environment.

ESD Failure Models
Agere employs two models for ESD events that can
cause device damage or failure:
1. An HBM that is used by most of the industry for
ESD-susceptibility testing and pr otec ti on-de si gn
evaluation. ESD voltage thresholds are dependent
on the critical parameters used to define the model.
A standard HBM (resistance = 1500 Ω,
capacitance = 100 pF) is widely used and, therefore,
can be used for comparison purposes.
2. A charged-device model (CDM), which many
believe is the better simulator of electronics
manufacturing exposure.
Table 5 and Table 6 illustrates the role these two
models play in the overall prevention of ESD damage.
HBM ESD testing is intended to simulate an ESD event
from a charged person. The CDM ESD testing
simulates charging and discharging events that occur in
production equipment and processes, e.g., an
integrated circuit sliding down a shipping tube.
The HBM ESD threshold voltage presented here was
obtained by using the following circuit parameters:

Latch Up
Latch-up evaluation has been performed on the data transmission receivers. Latch-up testing determines if powersupply current exceeds the specified maximum due to the application of a stress to the device under test. A device
is considered susceptible to latch up if the power supply current exceeds the maximum level and remains at that
level after the stress is removed.
Agere performs latch up testing per an internal test method that is consistent with JEDEC Standard No. 17
(previously JC-40.2)
Latch up evaluation involves three separate stresses to evaluate latch up susceptibility levels:
1. dc current stressing of input and output pins.
2. Power supply slew rate.
3. Power supply overvoltage.
Table 7. Latch Up Test Criteria and Test Results

Receiver ICs
Based on the results in Table 7, the data transmission receivers pass the Agere latch-up esting requirements and
are considered not susceptible to latch up.

Power Dissipation
System designers incorporating Agere data
transmission drivers in their applications should be
aware of package and thermal information associated
with these components.
Proper thermal management is essential to the longterm reliability of any plastic encapsulated integrated
circuit. Thermal management is especially important
for surface-mount devices, given the increasing circuit
pack density and resulting higher thermal density. A
key aspect of thermal management involves the
junction temperature (silicon temperature) of the
integrated circuit.
Several factors contribute to the resulting junction
temperature of an integrated circuit:
■
Ambient use temperature
■
Device power dissipation
■
Component placement on the board
■
Thermal properties of the board
■
Thermal impedance of the package
Thermal impedance of the package is referred to as
ja
Θ
and is measured in °C rise in junction temperature
per watt of power dissipation. Thermal impedance is
also a function of airflow present in system application.
The following equation can be used to estimate the
junction temperature of any device:
The power dissipated in the output is a function of the:
■
Termination scheme on the outputs
■
Termination resistors
■
Duty cycle of the output
Package thermal impedance depends on:
■
Airflow
■
Package type (e.g., DIP, SOIC, SOIC/NB)
The junction temperature can be calculated using the
previous equation, after power dissipation levels and
package thermal impedances are known.
Figure 11 illustrates the thermal impedance estimates
for the various package types as a function of airflow.
This figure shows that package thermal impedance is
higher for the narrow-body SOIC package. Particular
attention should, therefore, be paid to the thermal
management issues when using this package type.
In general, system designers should attempt to
maintain junction temperature below 125 °C. The
following factors should be used to determine if specific
data transmission drivers in particular package types
meet the system reliability objectives:
■
System ambient temperature
■
Power dissipation
■
Pac kage type
■
