Edge693 500 MHz Monolithic Dual Pin Electronics Driver
EDGE HIGH-PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS Description
The Edge693 is a dual pin electronics driver solution manufactured in a high-performance, complementary bipolar process. In Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) applications, the Edge693 offers two pin drivers suitable for drive-only channels in memory testers, as well as for bidirectional channels in memory, VLSI, and mixed- signal test systems. Each driver is completely isolated from the other. There are separate data, enable, slew rate adjust, high and low levels; as well as power supply inputs for each driver. The driver output slew rate is adjustable from 3 V/ns to 1 V/ns, allowing the matching of edges from channel-tochannel, as well as slowing down edges for noise sensitive applications. Each driver is capable of driving 9 V signals over a 12 V range, in addition to going into a high impedance state. The Edge693 can generate ECL signals up to 500 MHz and 3V signals in excess of 300 MHz. Combining two independent drivers into a 28-pin PLCC package offers a highly integrated solution appropriate where speed and density are at a premium.

Edge693
EDGE HIGH-PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS Circuit Description
Introduction The driver circuit will force the DOUT output to one of three states: 1. 2. 3. DVH (driver high voltage level) DVL (driver low voltage level) High Impedance (Hi Z). Driver Levels DVH and DVL are high-input impedance voltage controlled inputs that establish the driver logical high and low levels respectively. Slew Rate Adjustment The driver rising and falling slew rates are adjustable from 3.0 V/ns to 1 V/ns. The SLEWADJ signals are current controlled inputs that vary the rising and falling edge slew rates. An input current of 2.0 mA translates to a slew rate of 3.0 V/ns. An input current of 0.8 mA forces a 1 V/ns edge (see Figure 1).

Both driver digital control inputs (DHI/DHI*, DRVEN/ DRVEN*) are wide-voltage differential inputs capable of receiving ECL, TTL, and CMOS signals. Single-ended o p e r a t i o n is achievable by generating the proper threshold levels for the inverting inputs. Drive Enable T h e drive enable (DRVEN/DRVEN*) inputs control whether the driver is forcing a voltage or is placed in a high-impedance state. If DRVEN is more positive than D RV E N * , the output will force either DVL or DVH, depending on the driver data inputs. When DRVEN is more negative than DRVEN*, the output is set to highimpedance, independent of the driver data inputs. Driver Data The driver data inputs (DHI/DHI*) determine whether the driver output is high or low. If DHI is more positive than DHI*, the output will force DVH when the driver is enabled. If DHI is more negative than DHI*, the output will force DVL when the driver is enabled. Table 1 summarizes the functionality of the driver enable and driver data pins.

Notice that the driver A slew rate and driver B slew rate are independent. However, the rising and falling edge slew rates on each driver track each other and are not independent (see Figure 2).

EDGE HIGH-PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS Circuit Description (continued)
For system level flexibility, the SLEWADJ input is designed to allow a voltage DAC, a current DAC, or a resistor to a fixed voltage as possible slew rate control mechanisms (see Figure 3).

DVLCAP / DVHCAP These two analog nodes are brought out to better stabilize the high and low driver levels. Much like placing decoupling capacitors on the DVL and DVH input pins, the DVLCAP and DVHCAP pins require a fixed .01 µF chip capacitor (with good high frequency characteristics) to ground (see Figure 5). A tight layout with minimum etch is recommended.

Driver Bias Thermal Monitor The BIAS pin is an analog current input that requires a 1.2 mA fixed reference current for the driver. Several c i r c u i t configurations are usable to satisfy this requirement, the most simple being a fixed resistor to a fixed power supply, typically VCC (see Figure 4). Looking into the BIAS node shows a .7 V voltage source with a 1.5 KW impedance, so the equation to select the fixed resistor is: (VCC ­ .7) / (R + 1.5) = 1.2 mA The Edge693 includes an on-chip thermal monitor accessible through the THERMAL DIODE pin. This node connects to 5 diodes in series to VEE (see Figure 6) and m ay be used to accurately measure the junction temperature at any time.

Alternatively, a current DAC could be used to either p r o g r a m the BIAS current or to perform subtle adjustments in the fixed value.

A bias current of 100 µA is injected into this node, and the measured voltage corresponds to a specific junction temperature with the following equation: TJ(°C) = {(VTHERMAL DIODE ­ VEE) / 5 ­ .7} / (­.00208).
