GTLP6C816
GTLP-to-TTL 1:6 Clock Driver
General Description
The GTLP6C816 is a clock driver that provides TTL to
GTLP signal level translation (and vice versa). The devi ce
provides a high speed interface between cards operating at
TTL logic levels and a backpl ane operating at GT LP logic
levels. High speed backplane operation is a direct result of
GTLP’s reduced output swi ng (<1 V), re duced input th reshold levels and output edge rate co ntr ol. Th e ed ge ra te co ntrol minimizes bus settling time. GTLP is a Fairchild
Semiconductor derivati ve of the Gunning Transceiver logic
(GTL) JEDEC standard JESD8-3.
Fairchild’s GTLP has intern al edge -rate cont rol and is process, voltage, and temperature (PVT) compensated. Its
function is similar to BTL and GT L but with different outp ut
levels and receiver threshold. GTLP output LOW level is
typically less than 0.5V, the output level HIGH is 1.5V and
the receiver threshold is 1.0V.
Features
■ Interface between TTL and GTLP logic levels
■ Edge Rate Control to minimize noise on the GTLP port
■ Power up/down high impedance for live insertion
■ 1:6 fanout clock driver for TTL port
■ 1:2 fanout clock driver for GTLP port
■ TTL compatible driver and control inputs
■ Flow through pinout op timizes PCB layout
■ Open drain on GTLP to support wired-or connection
■ Recommended Operating Temperature −40°C to +85°C
