Device Operation (Continued)
Figure 7 shows an AC-coupled, twisted pair cable applica-
tion. It implements a center tap capacitance termination
used in conjunction with two 50 resistors to filter common
mode noise. R
BB
set at 5k provides 1.25V of DC bias to
each input.
PECL or LVPECL drivers may be interfaced to the CLC001
as shown in Figure 8. The voltage divider network will reduce
the PECL output to the proper levels. For LVPECL, the 100
series resistors should be removed, since the common
mode range inputs of the CLC001 are wide enough to accept
LVPECL levels directly. No external DC biasing is required
for PECL/LVPECL connections.
