The DS92LV040A is one in a series of Bus LVDS transceivers designed specifically for high speed, low power backplane or cable interfaces. The device operates from a single
3.3V power supply and includes four differential line drivers
and four receivers. To minimize bus loading, the driver outputs and receiver inputs are internally connected. The device
also features a flow through pin out which allows easy PCB
routing for short stubs between its pins and the connector.
The driver translates 3V LVTTL levels (single-ended) to differential Bus LVDS (BLVDS) output levels. This allows for
high speed operation while consuming minimal power and
reducing EMI. In addition, the differential signaling provides
common mode noise rejection greater than
The receiver threshold is less than +0/−70 mV. The receiver
translates the differential Bus LVDS to standard (LVTTL/
LVCMOS) levels. (See Applications Information Section for
more details.)

Applications Information
General application guidelines and hints may be found in the
following application notes: AN-808, AN-977, AN-971, and
AN-903.
BLVDS drivers and receivers are intended to be used in a
differential backplane configuration. Transceivers or receivers are connected to the driver through a balanced media
such as differential PCB traces. Typically, the characteristic
differential impedance of the media (Zo) is in the range of
50Ω to 100Ω. Two termination resistors of ZoΩ each are
placed at the ends of the transmission line backplane. The
termination resistor converts the current sourced by the
driver into a voltage that is detected by the receiver. The
effects of mid-stream connector(s), cable stub(s), and other
impedance discontinuity as well as ground shifting, noise
margin limits, and total termination loading must be taken
into account. The DS92LV040A differential line driver is a
balanced current mode design. A current mode driver, generally speaking has a high output impedance (100 ohms)
and supplies a reasonably constant current for a range of
loads (a voltage mode driver on the other hand supplies a
constant voltage for a range of loads). Current is switched
through the load in one direction to produce a logic state and
in the other direction to produce the other logic state. The
output current is typically 12 mA. The current changes as a
www.national.com4
function of load resistor. The current mode requires (as
discussed above) that a resistive termination be employed to
terminate the signal and to complete the loop. Unterminated
configurations are not allowed. The 12 mA loop current will
develop a differential voltage of about 300mV across a 27Ω
(double terminated 54Ω differential transmission backplane)
effective resistance, which the receiver detects with a 230
mV minimum differential noise margin neglecting resistive
line losses (driven signal minus receiver threshold (300 mV
– 70 mV = 230 mV)). The signal is centered around +1.2V
(Driver Offset, VOS ) with respect to ground. Note that the
steady-state voltage (VSS ) peak-to-peak swing is twice the
differential voltage (VOD ) and is typically 600 mV. The
current mode driver provides substantial benefits over voltage mode drivers, such as an RS-422 driver. Its quiescent
current remains relatively flat versus switching frequency.
Whereas the RS-422 voltage mode driver increases exponentially in most case between 20 MHz–50 MHz. This is due
to the overlap current that flows between the rails of the
device when the internal gates switch. Whereas the current
mode driver switches a fixed current between its output
without any substantial overlap current. This is similar to
some ECL and PECL devices, but without the heavy static
ICC requirements of the ECL/PECL designs. LVDS requires
80% less current than similar PECL devices. AC specifications for the driver are a tenfold improvement over other

existing RS-422 drivers. The TRI-STATE function allows the
driver outputs to be disabled, thus obtaining an even lower
power state when the transmission of data is not required.
There are a few common practices which should be implied
when designing PCB for Bus LVDS signaling. Recommended practices are:
Use at least 4 PCB board layer (Bus LVDS signals,
•
ground, power and TTL signals).
Keep drivers and receivers as close to the (Bus LVDS
•
port side) connector as possible.
Bypass each Bus LVDS device and also use distributed
•
bulk capacitance between power planes. Surface mount
capacitors placed close to power and ground pins work
best. Three or more high frequency, multi-layer ceramic
(MLC) surface mount (0.1 µF, 0.01 µF, 0.001 µF) in
parallel should be used between each V
Multiple vias should be used to connect V
planes to the pads of the by-pass capacitors.
In addition, it may be necessary to randomly distribute
by-pass capacitors of different values (200pF to 1000pF)
to achieve different resonant frequencies.
Use the termination resistor which best matches the dif-
•
ferential impedance of your transmission line.
Leave unused Bus LVDS receiver inputs open (floating).
•
Limit traces on unused inputs to
Isolate TTL signals from Bus LVDS signals
•
MEDIA (CONNECTOR or BACKPLANE) SELECTION:
The backplane and connectors should have a matched
•
differential impedance. Use controlled impedance traces
which match the differential impedance of your transmission medium (ie. backplane or cable) and termination
resistor(s). Run the differential pair trace lines as close
together as possible as soon as they leave the IC . This
will help eliminate reflections and ensure noise is coupled
as common-mode. In fact, we have seen that differential
signals which are 1mm apart radiate far less noise than
<
0.5 inches.
and ground.
CC
and Ground

traces 3mm apart since magnetic field cancellation is
much better with the closer traces. Plus, noise induced
on the differential lines is much more likely to appear as
common-mode which is rejected by the receiver. Match
electrical lengths between traces to reduce skew. Skew
between the signals of a pair means a phase difference
between signals which destroys the magnetic field cancellation benefits of differential signals and EMI will result. (Note the velocity of propagation, v = c/Er where c
(the speed of light) = 0.2997mm/ps or 0.0118 in/ps). Do
not rely solely on the autoroute function for differential
traces. Carefully review dimensions to match differential
impedance and provide isolation for the differential lines.
Minimize the number of vias and other discontinuity on
the line. Avoid 90˚ turns (these cause impedance discontinuity). Use arcs or 45˚ bevels. Within a pair of traces,
the distance between the two traces should be minimized
to maintain common-mode rejection of the receivers. On
the printed circuit board, this distance should remain
constant to avoid discontinuity in differential impedance.
Minor violations at connection points are allowable.
Stub Length: Stub lengths should be kept to a minimum.
•
The typical transition time of the DS92LV040A BLVDS
output is 0.75ns (20% to 80%). The extrapolated 100
percent time is 0.75/0.6 or 1.25ns. For a general approximation, if the electrical length of a trace is greater than
1/5 of the transition edge, then the trace is considered a
transmission line. For example, 1.25ns/5 is 250 picoseconds. Let velocity equal 160ps per inch for a typical
loaded backplane. Then maximum stub length is 250ps/
160ps/in or 1.56 inches. To determine the maximum stub
for your backplane, you need to know the propagation
velocity for the actual conditions (refer to application
notes AN 905 and AN 808).
