INTRODUCTION
The UT54LVDS032 Quad Receiver is a quad CMOS differential
line receiver 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 UT54LVDS032 accepts low voltage (340mV) differential
input signals and translates them to 5V TTL output levels. The
receiver supports a three-state function that may be used to
multiplex outputs. The receiver also supports OPEN, shorted and
terminated (100) input fail-safe. Receiver output will be HIGH
for all fail-safe conditions.
The UT54LVDS032 and companion quad line driver
UT54LVDS031 provide new alternatives to high power pseudo-
ECL devices for high speed point-to-point interface applications.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The UT54LVDS032 receiver’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 which may be 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.

of ENABLE inputs
The UT54LVDS032 differential line receiver is capable of
detecting signals as low as 100mV, over a + 1V common-mode
range centered around +1.2V. This is related to the driver offset
voltage which is typically +1.2V. The driven signal is centered
around this voltage and may shift +1V around this center point.
The +1V shifting may be the result of a ground potential difference
between the driver’s ground reference and the receiver’s ground
reference, the common-mode effects of coupled noise or a
combination of the two. Both receiver input pins should honor their
specified operating input voltage range of 0V to +2.4V (measured
from each pin to ground).

Receiver Fail-Safe
The UT54LVDS032 receiver is a high gain, high speed device that
amplifies a small differential signal (20mV) to TTL logic levels.
Due to the high gain and tight threshold of the receiver, care should
be taken to prevent noise from appearing as a valid signal.
The receiver’s internal fail-safe circuitry is designed to source/sink
a small amount of current, providing fail-safe protection (a stable
known state of HIGH output voltage) for floating, terminated or
shorted receiver inputs.
1.
Open Input Pins.
The UT54LVDS032 is a quad receiver
device, and if an application requires only 1, 2 or 3
receivers, the unused channel(s) inputs should be left
OPEN. Do not tie unused receiver inputs to ground or any
other voltages. The input is biased by internal high value
pull up and pull down resistors to set the output to a HIGH
state. This internal circuitry will guarantee a HIGH, stable
output state for open inputs.
2.
Terminated Input.
If the driver is disconnected (cable
unplugged), or if the driver is in a three-state condition, the
receiver output will again be in a HIGH state, even with the
end of cable 100 termination resistor across the input pins.
The unplugged cable can become a floating antenna which
can pick up noise. If the cable picks up more than 10mV of
differential noise, the receiver may see the noise as a valid
signal and switch. To insure that any noise is seen as
common-mode and not differential, a balanced
interconnect should be used. Twisted pair cable offers better
balance than flat ribbon cable.
3.
Shorted Inputs.
If a fault condition occurs that shorts the
receiver inputs together, thus resulting in a 0V differential
input voltage, the receiver output remains in a HIGH state.
Shorted input fail-safe is not supported across the common-
mode range of the device (V
SS
to 2.4V). It is only supported
with inputs shorted and no external common-mode voltage
applied.
