The LX5203 is a nine-line active terminator
for the SCSI parallel bus. This SCSI standard
recommends active termination at both ends
of the SCSI bus.
During disconnect mode, the LX5203 requires a meager 60µA of supply current,
while offering only 6pF of output capacitance. To enter this low-power mode, the
disconnect pin can be left open (floating) or
driven high, thereby disconnecting the terminating resistors and placing the internal
low dropout regulator into low-power mode.
In disconnect mode each termination line
presents a high impedance to the SCSI bus
with the overall effect being to preserve high
signal integrity and yield subsequent reliable,
error-free communications.
During normal operation, the LX5203 con-

sumes only 600µA of current. Linfinity's
proprietary BiCMOS low dropout regulator
architecture enables oscillation-free operation with minimal output capacitance.
Linfinity recommends a minimum stabilization capacitor value of 2.2µF.
The LX5203 also offers a precisely trimmed
channel output current specified to a 5%
tolerance. The maximum value of the output
current is trimmed as closely as possible to
the SCSI standard maximum specification to
give the highest possible noise margin for
fast SCSI operation. And the LX5203 sinks
up to 150mA of current making it compatible
with today's fast active negation drivers.
The LX5203 is a superior, pin-for-pin replacement for a variety of industry products
such as the UC5603 and UC5613.

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
(Unless otherwise specified, these specifications apply over the operating ambient temperature range of 0°C ≤ TA ≤ 70°C. TermPwr = 4.75V, Disconnect = 0V. Low duty cycle pulse testing techniques are used which maintains junction and case temperatures equal to the ambient temperature.)
