RECOMMENDATIONS FOR UNUSED INPUT AND OUTPUT PINS
INPUTS:
OUTPUTS:
LVCMOS CONTROL PINS:
All control pins have internal pull-ups or pull-downs; additional
resistance is not required but can be added for additional
protection. A 1kΩ resistor can be used.
LVPECL OUTPUT
All unused LVPECL outputs can be left floating. We
recommend that there is no trace attached. Both sides of the
differential output pair should either be left floating or
terminated.
TERMINATION FOR 3.3V LVPECL OUTPUT
The clock layout topology shown below is a typical termi-
nation for LVPECL outputs. The two different layouts men-
tioned are recommended only as guidelines.
FOUT and nFOUT are low impedance follower outputs that
generate ECL/LVPECL compatible outputs. Therefore, termi-
nating resistors (DC current path to ground) or current
sources must be used for functionality. These outputs are
designed to drive 50Ω transmission lines. Matched imped-
ance techniques should be used to maximize operating
frequency and minimize signal distortion. Figures 3A and
3B show two different layouts which are recommended only
as guidelines. Other suitable clock layouts may exist and it
would be recommended that the board designers simulate to
guarantee compatibility across all printed circuit and clock
component process variations.
