9 Application and Implementation

NOTE

Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.

9.1 Application Information

The DS90LV028A has a flow-through pinout that allows for easy PCB layout. The LVDS signals on one side of the device easily allows for matching electrical lengths of the differential pair trace lines between the driver and the receiver as well as allowing the trace lines to be close together to couple noise as common mode. Noise isolation is achieved with the LVDS signals on one side of the device and the TTL signals on the other side.

9.2.1 Design Requirements

When using LVDS devices, it is important to remember to specify controlled impedance PCB traces, cable assemblies, and connectors. All components of the transmission media must have a matched differential impedance of about 100 Ω. They must not introduce major impedance discontinuities.

Balanced cables (for example, twisted pair) are usually better than unbalanced cables (ribbon cable) for noise reduction and signal quality. Balanced cables tend to generate less EMI due to field canceling effects and also tend to pick up electromagnetic radiation as common mode (not differential mode) noise which is rejected by the LVDS receiver.

For cable distances < 0.5 M, most cables can be made to work effectively. For distances 0.5 M ≤ d ≤ 10 M, CAT5 (Category 5) twisted pair cable works well, is readily available, and relatively inexpensive.

9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

9.2.2.1 Probing LVDS Transmission Lines

Always use high impedance (>100 kΩ), low capacitance (<2 pF) scope probes with a wide bandwidth (1 GHz) scope. Improper probing gives deceiving results.

9.2.2.2 Threshold

The LVDS Standard (ANSI/TIA/EIA-644) specifies a maximum threshold of ±100 mV for the LVDS receiver. The DS90LV028A supports an enhanced threshold region of −100 mV to 0 V. This is useful for fail-safe biasing. The threshold region is shown in the Voltage Transfer Curve (VTC) in Figure 21. The typical DS90LV028A LVDS receiver switches at about −35 mV.

NOTE

With VID = 0 V, the output is in a HIGH state. With an external fail-safe bias of 25 mV applied, the typical differential noise margin is now the difference from the switch point to the bias point.

In the following example, this would be 60 mV of Differential Noise Margin (25 mV − (−35 mV)). With the enhanced threshold region of −100 mV to 0 V, this small external fail-safe biasing of 25 mV (with respect to 0 V) gives a DNM of a comfortable 60 mV. With the standard threshold region of ±100 mV, the external fail-safe biasing would require 25 mV with respect to 100 mV or 125 mV, giving a DNM of 160 mV which is stronger fail-safe biasing than is necessary for the DS90LV028A. If more differential noise margin (DNM) is required, then a stronger fail-safe bias point can be set by changing resistor values.
