Compatible with ANSI/TIA/EIA 644-1996 LVDS Standard
INTRODUCTION
The UT54LVDS031 Quad Driver is a quad CMOS differential
line driver designed for applications requiring ultra low power
dissipation and high data rates. The device is designed to support
data rates in excess of 155.5 Mbps (77.7 MHz) utilizing Low
Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) technology.
The UT54LVDS031 accepts TTL input levels and translates
them to low voltage (340mV) differential output signals. In
addition, the driver supports a three-state function that may be
used to disable the output stage, disabling the load current, and
thus dropping the device to an ultra low idle power state.
The UT54LVDS031 and companion quad line receiver
UT54LVDS032 provide new alternatives to high power pseudo-
ECL devices for high speed point-to-point interface
applications.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The UT54LVDS031 driver’s intended use is primarily in an
uncomplicated point-to-point configuration as is shown in
Figure 3. This configuration provides a clean signaling
environment for quick edge rates of the drivers. The receiver is
connected to the driver through a balanced media such as a
standard twisted pair cable, a parallel pair cable, or simply PCB
traces. Typically, the characteristic impedance of the media is in
the range of 100. A termination resistor of 100should be
selected to match the media and is located as close to the receiver
input pins as possible. The termination resistor converts the
current sourced by the driver into voltages that are detected by
the receiver. Other configurations are possible such as a multi-
receiver configuration, but the effects of a mid-stream
connector(s), cable stub(s), and other impedance discontinuities,
as well as ground shifting, noise margin limits, and total
termination loading must be taken into account.

The UT54LVDS031 differential line driver is a balanced current
source design. A current mode driver, has a high output
impedance and supplies a 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 current mode
requires
(as discussed above) that a resistive termination be
employed to terminate the signal and to complete the loop as
shown in Figure 3. AC or unterminated configurations are not
allowed. The 3.4mA loop current will develop a differential
voltage of 340mV across the 100 termination resistor which
the receiver detects with a 240mV minimum differential noise
margin neglecting resistive line losses (driven signal minus
receiver threshold (340mV - 100mV = 240mV)). The signal is
centered around +1.2V (Driver Offset, V
OS
) with respect to
ground as shown in Figure 4.
Note:
The steady-state voltage
(V
SS
) peak-to-peak swing is twice the differential voltage (V
OD
)
and is typically 680mV.

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 cases 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 I
CC
requirements of
the ECL/PECL design. 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 Three-State function allows the driver outputs to be
disabled, thus obtaining an even lower power state when the
transmission of data is not required.
