Dual Differential Line Driver
DS7830 Dual Differential Line Driver
August 2000
General Description
The DS7830 is a dual differential line driver that also performs the dual four-input NAND or dual four-input AND function.
TTL (Transistor-Transistor-Logic) multiple emitter inputs allow this line driver to interface with standard TTL systems.
The differential outputs are balanced and are designed to
drive long lengths of coaxial cable, strip line, or twisted pair
transmission lines with characteristic impedances of 50Ω to
500Ω. The differential feature of the output eliminates
troublesome ground-loop errors normally associated with
single-wire transmissions.

Note 2: “Absolute Maximum Ratings” are those values beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. Except for “Operating Temperature Range” they
are not meant to imply that the devices should be operated at these limits. The table of “Electrical Characteristics” provides conditions for actual device operation.
Note 3: Unless otherwise specified min/max limits apply across the −55˚C to +125˚C temperature range for the DS7830. Typical values are for T
= 5.0V.
Note 4: All currents into device pins shown as positive, out of device pins as negative, all voltages referenced to ground unless otherwise noted. All values shown
as max or min on absolute value basis.
Note 5: Only one output at a time should be shorted.
