Quality and Reliability
As electronic systems become more and more· complex,
the need for consistently high Quality integrated ciroults
becomes increasingly important. Having recognized this
need as far back as the 1970s, National Semiconductor Initiated a unlQue~ company-wide Quality Improvement Program. The results have been dramatic and, we believe,
. unmatched In this Industry. Over the years, National has
regularly been named by many major customers as "Qual·
ity Manufacturer of the Year." We are proud of our success, which sets a standard for others to achieve. And yet
our Quest for perfection is ongoing, so that customers can
continue to rely on National Semiconductor Integrated circuits and products in their system designs.

Qualite et Fiabilite

Qualitat und Zuverlassigkeit

La complexite croissante des systemes electroniques
demande des circuits integres de plus en plus haute qualite. Conscient de ce besoin des les annees '70 National
Semiconductor fut I'origine d'un programme unique accentuant la qualite de to us ses produits. Les resultats
furent spectaculaires et inegales. Depuis National
Semiconductor a regu la distinction pour la qualite de ses
produits de la part de ses clients. Nous sommes flers de
ce succes qui force les aut res
suivre nos standarts.
Notre recherche de la perfection se poursuit apportant la
confiance pour nos clients en nos produits et leur utilisation pour leurs systemes.

Mit der zunehmenden Komplexltat der elektronischen Systeme wird die Notwendigkeit integriete Schaltungen mit
hoher Qualitat immer wichtiger. Dies bereits in den 70iger
Jahren erkannt, entwickelte National Semiconductor ein
einmaliges, firmenweltes "Qualitatsverbesserungsprogramm". Die damit von National Semiconductor erreichten Ergebnisse sind bis heute-wie wir glauben-unerreicht. Wah rend der letzten Jahre wurde National
Semiconductor regelmassig als "Qualitatsherstelier Nr
1" bewertet. Auf diesen Erfolg sind wir stolz. Er setzt neue
Mass-Stabe fUr die Industrie. Und doch gehen unsere
Austrengungen zu immer hoheren Perfektion we iter, so
dass sich unsere Kunden auch In Zukunft auf National
Semiconductor's integriete Schaltungen und Produkte in
ihren System en absolut verlassen konnen.

UNBALANCED (COMMON-MODE) TRANSMISSION DRIVERS AND RECEIVERS

Unbalanced data transmission isn't recommended for long lines or fast data rates. Unbalanced
line receivers are sensitive to common-mode noise, such as ground I R noise and induced
reactive noise. Unbalanced line drivers should employ slew rate control to prevent near ,end
crosstalk to other wires in the cable. Receivers should employ response control and hysteresis.
Unbalanced data transmission was preferred because the cabling requires only one wire/
signal plus ground and the circuits were lower cost. New lower cost circuits available today
negate the last argument .. Many old interfaces such as RS-232 will continue to exist for
many years, and so will the application for unbalanced circuit5~

Line length is a function of data rate (baud) and slew rate. The recommended safe operating
area (line length vs baud rate is shown below for 24 AWG wire. It assumes that a differential
line receiver is used which is referenced at the driver ground. Also, it assumes that the
driver slew rate is between 0.1 to 0.3 times the reciprocal of the baud rate (minimum unit
interval). Otherwise, line lengths greater than 50 feet are not recommended. The exception
to line length is the 360 I/O coaxial interface. The coaxial provides improved grounding
and eliminates crosstalk.'

BALANCED (01 FFERENTIAL) TRANSMISSION LINE DRIVERS AND RECEIVERS_
10k

Balanced data transmission is applicable for long lines in the presence of high common-mode
noise. Balanced circuits don't generate much noise and are also not susceptible to commonmode noise, and therefore work well in long lines when cabled with other signals.
Line length is a function of data rate (baud) and the combination of I R drop and skin
effect. Refer to AN-' 08 and AN-22. The recommended safe operating area (line length vs
baud rate) is shown for 24 AWG wire.

General Description

Features

National's quad RS-422 driver features four independent driver chains which comply with EIA Standards
for the electrical characteristics of balanced voltage
digital interface circuits_ The outputs are TR I-STATE®
structures which are forced to a high impedance state
when the appropriate output control pin reaches a logic
zero condition_ All input pins are PNP buffered to
minimize input loading for either logic one or logic zero
inputs. In addition, internal circuitry assures a high
impedance output state during the transition between
power up and power down.

General Description

Features

The eight products described herein are TTL
compatible dual high speed circuits intended for
sensing in a broad range of system applications.
While the primary usage will be for line receivers
or MOS sensing, any of the products may effec·
tively be used as voltage comparators, level trans·
lators, window detectors, transducer preamplifiers,
and in other sensing applications. As digital line
receivers the products are appl icable with the
SN55109/SN75109 and SN55110/SN75110 com·
panion drivers, or may be used in other balanced
or unbalanced party·line data transmission systems.
The improved input sensitivity and delay specifi·
cations of the DS75207 and DS75208 make them
ideal for sensing high performance MOS memories
as well as high sensitivity line receivers and voltage
comparators. TR I·STATE® products enhance
bused organizations.

General Description
this configuration the 051652/0S3652 provides the
"ANO" function. All addresses have to be true before
the output will go high. This scheme eliminates the need
for an "ANO" gate and enhances speed throughput for
address decoding.

The 051650/053650 and 051652/053652 are TTL
compatible quad high speed circuits intended primarily
for line receiver applications. 5witching speeds have
been enhanced over conventional line receivers by the
use of 5chottky technology, and TRI·5TATE® strobing
is incorporated offering a high impedance output state
for bussed organizations.

Features

The 051650/053650 has active pull-up outputs and
offers a TRI-5TATE strobe, while the 051652/053652
offers open collector outputs providing implied "ANO"
operation.

•
•
•
•
•
•

The 051652/053652 can be used for address decoding
as illustrated below. All outputs of the 051652/053652
are tied together through a common resistor to 5V. In

Note 1: "Absolute Maximum Ratings" are those values beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. Except for 1I0perating
Temperature Range" they are not meant to imply that the devices should be operated at these limits. The table of "Elactrical Characteristics"
provides conditions for actual device operation.

Note 2: Unless otherwise specified, minImax limits apply across the O°C to +7rf'C range for the OS3650, OS3652 and the -55°C to +125°C
range for the OS1650, OS1652. All typical values are for T A = 25°C, VCC = 5V and VEE = -5V.
Note 3: All currents into device pins shown as positive, out of device pins as negative, all voltages referenced to ground unless otherwise noted.
All values shown as max or min on absolute value basis.
Note 4: Only one output at a time should be shorted.
Note 5: A parameter which is of primary concern when designing with line receivers is. what is the minimum differential input voltage required
as the receiver input terminals to guarantee a given output logic state. This param~ter is commonly referred to as threshold voltage. It is well
known that design considerations of threshold voltage are plagued by input offset currents, bias currents, network source resistances; and voltage
gain. As a design-convenience, the OS1650, OS1652 and the OS3650, OS3652 are specified to a parameter called input sensitivity (VIS). This
parameter takes into consideration input offset currents and bias currents and guarantees a minimum input differential voltage to cause a given
output logic state with respect to a maximum source impedance of 200n at each input.

General Description

Features

The DS1691AIDS3691 are low power Schottky TTL line
drivers designed to meet the requirements of EIA standards RS-422 and RS-423. They feature 4 buffered outputs
with high source and sink current capability with internal
short circuit protection. A mode control input provides a
choice of operation either ali 4 independent line drivers or
2 differential line drivers. A rise time control pin allows the
use of an external capacitor to reduce rise time for sup·
pression of near end crosstalk to other receivers in the
cable.

• Dual RS·422 line driver with mode pin low, or quad
RS-423 line driver with mode pin high
• Individually TRI-STATEable differential drivers in
differential mode
• Short circuit protection for both source and sink outputs
• Outputs will not clamp line with power off or in
TRI-STATE
• Individual rise lime control for each output
• 1000 transmission line drive capability
• Low Icc and lEE po~er consumption

drivers electrically similar io the OS1691AIDS3691 but
tested to meetthe requirements of MIL-STO-188-114. They
feature 4 buffered outputs with high source and sink current capability with internal short circuit protection, A
mode control input provides a choice of operation either
as 4 independent line drivers or2 differential line drivers, A
rise time control pin allows the use of an external capacitor to reduce rise time for suppression of near end crosstalk to other receivers in the cable.

• Oual differential line driver or quad single-ended line
driver
• Individually TRI-STATEable differential drivers meet
MIL-STD-188-114
• Short circuit protection for both soqrceand sinkoutputs
• Individual rise time control for each output
• 1000 transmission line drive capability
• Low Icc and lEE power consumption

The 053695, 053696, 053697 and 053698 are high speed
differential TRI-STATE buslline transceivers/repeaters designed to meet the requirements of EIA standard RS485
with extended common mode range (+ 12V to - 7V), for

TRI-STATE ® Bus/Line Transceivers/Repeaters

The driver and receiver outputs feature TRI-STATE capability, for the driver outputs over the entire common mode
range of + 12V to -7V_ Bus contention or fault situations
that cause excessive power dissipation within the device
are handled by a thermal shutdown circuit, which forces the
driver outputs into the high impedance state. The 053696
and 053698 provide an output pin which reports the occurrence of a line fault causing thermal shutdown of the device.
This is an "open collector" pin with an internal 10 kO pull-up
resistor. This allows the line fault outputs of several devices
to be wire OR-ed.
Both AC and OC specifications are guaranteed over the 0 to
70"C temperature and 4.75V to 5.25V supply voltage range.

D8551131D875113 Dual TRI·8TATE®
Differential Line Driver
General Description

Features

The DS55113/DS75113 dual differential line drivers
with TR I-STATE outputs are designed to provide all the
features of the DS55114/DS75114 line drivers with the
added feature of driver output controls. There are
individual controls for each output pair, as well as a
common control for both output pairs. When an output
control is low, the associated output is in a highimpedance state and the output can neither drive nor
load the bus. This permits many devices to be connected
together on the sa01e transmission line for party-line
applications.

The output stages are similar to TTL totem-pole outputs,
but with the sink outputs, YS and ZS, and the corresponding active pull-up terminals, YP and ZP, available
'on adjacent package pins.

D8551141D875114 Dual Differential Line Drivers
General Description

Features

The DS55114/DS75114 dual differential line drivers are
designed to provide differential output signals with high
current capability for driving balanced lines, such as
twisted pair at normal line impedances, without high
power dissipation. The output stages are similar to TTL
totem·pole outputs, but with the sink outputs, YS and
ZS, and the corresponding active pull·up terminals, YP
and ZP, available on adjacent package pins. Since the
output stages provide TTL compatible output levels,
these devices may also be used as TTL expanders or
phase spl iUers.

General Description

Features

The DS55121/DS75121 are monolithic dual line
. drivers designed to drive' long lengths of coaxial
cable, strip line, or twisted pair transmi'ssion lines
having impedances from 50 to 500 ohms. Both
are compatible with standard TTL logic and
supply voltage levels.

• Designed for digital data transmission over 50
to 500 ohms coaxial cable, strip line, or
twisted pair transmission. lines
• TTL compatible
• Open emitter-follower output structure for
party-line operation

The DS55121/OS75121 will drive terminated low
impedance lines due to the low·impedance emitter·
follower outputs. In addition the outputs are
uncommitted allowing two or more drivers to
drive the same line.

• Short-circuit protection
• AND-OR logic configuration
• High speed (max propagation delay time 20 ns)

Output short-circuit protection is incorporated
to turn off the output when the output voltage
drops below approximately 1.5V.

• Plug-in replacement for the SN55121/SN75121
and the 8T13

General· Description

Features

The DS75150 is a dual monolithic line driver designed'
to satisfy the requirements of the standard interface
between data terminal equipment and data communication equipment as defined by EIA Standard RS-232-C.
A rate of 20,000 bits per second can be transmitted with
a full 2500 pF load. Other applications are in datatransmission systems using relatively short single lines,
in level translators, and for driving MOS devices. The

087820/058820 Dual Line Receiver
General Description
The 057820, specified from -5SoC to +12SoC, and
the 058820, specified from O°C to +70°C, are
digital line receivers with two completely independent units fabricated on a single silicon chip.
Intended for use with digital systems connected
by twisted pair lines, they have a differential input
designed to reject large common mode signals while
responding to small differential signals. The output
is directly compatible with TTL or L5 integrated
circuits.

• Each channel can be strobed independently
• High input resistance
• Fan out of two with TTL integrated circuits

The response time can be controlled with an ex·
ternal capacitor to eliminate noise spikes, and the
output state is determined for open inputs .. Ter·
mination resistors for the twisted pair line are
also included in the circuit. Both the 057820 and
the 058820 are specified, worst case, over their
full operating temperature range, for ±10·percent
supply voltage variations and over the entire input
voltage range.

Features
• Operation from a single +5V logic supply
• Input voltage range of ±lSV

DS7820AlDS8820A Dual Line Receiver
General Description
The DS7820A and the DS8820A are improved
performance digital line receivers with two completely independent units fabricated on a single
silicon chip_ Intended for use with digital systems
connected by twisted pair lines, they have a differential input designed to reject large common mode
signals while responding to small differential signals_ The output is directly compatible with TTL
or LS integrated circuits_ Some important design
features include:

• Fanout of ten with TTL integrated circuits
• Outputs can be wire OR'ed
• Series 54/74 compatible

The. response time can be controlled with an external capacitor to reject input noise spikes. The
·output state is a logic "1" for both inputs open.
Termination resistors for the twisted pair line are
also included in the circuit. Both the DS7820A
and the DS8820A are specified, worst case, over
their full operating temperature range (-55"e
to 125°C and aOe to 70°C respectively). over the
entire input voltage range, for ±10% supply voltage variations.

• Operation from a single +5V logic supply
•

Input voltage range of ±15V

• Strobe low forces output to "1" state
•

High input resistance

057831/058831, 057832/058832

Dual TRI·5TATE® Line Driver
General Description

Mode of Operation

Through simple logic control, the DS7831/
DS8831, DS7832/DS8832 can be used as either
a quad single-ended Iine driver or a dual differential
line driver. They are specifically designed for
party line (bus-organized) systems. The DS7832/
DS8832 does not have the Vee clamp diodes
found on the DS7831/DS8831.

To operate as a quad single-ended line driver apply
logical "O"s to the Output Disable pins (to keep
the outputs in the normal low impedance mode)
and apply logical "O"'s to both Differential/
Single·ended Mode Control inputs. All four
channels will then operate independentlY and no
signal inversion wi II occur between inputs and
outputs.

The DS7831 and DS7832 are specified for operation over the -55°C to +125°C military temperature range. The DS8831 _and DS8832 are specified
for operation over the O°C to +70°C temperature
range.

To operate as a dual differential line driver apply
logical "0"5 to the Output Disable pins and apply
at" least one logical "1" to the Differential/Single·
ended Mode Control inputs. The inputs to the A
channels shou Id be connected together and the
inputs to the B channels-should be connected together.

Features
• Series 54/74 compatible
• 17 ns propagation delay
• Very low output impedance-high drive
capability
• 40 mA sink and source currents
• Gating control to allow either single·ended or
differential operation
• High impedance output state which allows
many outputs to be connected to a common
bus line.

In this mode the signals applied to the resulting
inputs will pass non·inverted on the A2 and 8 2 outputs and ,inverted on the A, and B, outputs.
When operating in a bus-organized system with
outputs tied directly to outputs of other

Notes
Note 1: "Absolute Maximum Ratings" are those values beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. Except for "Operating
Temperature Range" they are not meant to imply that the devices should be operated at these limits. The table of ·'Electrical Characteristics"
provides conditions for actual device operation.

Note 2: Unless otherwise specified minimax limits apply across the -55°C to +125°C temperature range for the OS7831 and 087832 and across
the oOe to +70o e range for~he OS8831 and OS8832. All typical values are for TA = 25"e and Vee = 5V.
Note 3: All currents into device pins shown as positive, out of device pins as negative, all voltages referenced to ground unless otherwise noted. All
values shown as max or min on absolute value basis.
Note 4: Applies for TA = 125°e only. Only one output should be shorted at a time.

Mode of Operation

(Continued)

OS7831/0S8831 's, OS7832/0S8832's (Figure
1), all devices except one must be placed in the
"high impedance" state. This is accomplished by
ensuring that a logical "1" is applied to at least
one of the Output Disable pins of each device
which is to be in the "high impedance" state. A
NOR gate was purposely chosen for this function
since it is possible with only two OM 5442/
OM7442, BCO-to·decimal decoders, to decode as
many as 100 OS7831/0S8831 's, OS7832/
OS8832's (Figure 2).
The unique device whose Disable inputs receive
two logical "0" levels assumes the. normal low

impedance output state, providing good capacitive
drive capability and waveform integrity especially
during the transition from the logical "0" to
logical "1" state. The other outputs-in the high
impedance state-take only a small amount of
leakage current from the low impedance outputs.
Since the logical "1" output current from the
selected device is 100 times that of a conventional
Series 54174 device (40 mA vs. 400 IlA), the
output is easily able to supply that leakage current
for several hundred other OS7831 /OS8831 's,
OS7832/0S8832's and still have available drive
for the b.us line (Figure 3).

RESPONSE CONTROL AND HYSTERESIS
OUTPUT

In unbalanced (RS232/RS423) applications it is
recommended that the rise time and fall time of the line
driver be controlled to reduce -cross-talk. Elimination
of switching noise is accomplished in the DS78C120/
DS88C120 by the 50 mV of hysteresis incorporated
in the output gate. This eliminates the oscillations which
may appear in a line receiver due to the input signal
slowly varying about the threshold level for extended
periods of time.

NOISE PULSE

High frequency noise which is superimposed on the
input signal which may exceed 50 mV can be reduced
in amplitude by filtering the device input. On the
DS78C120/DS88C120, a high impedance response
control pin in the input amplifier is available to filter
the input signal without affecting the termination
impedance of the transmission line. Noise pulse width
rejection vs the value of the response control capacitor
is shown in Figures 1 and 2. This combination of filters
followed by hysteresis will optimize performance in a
worse case noise environment.

TRANSMISSION LINE TERMINATION
On a transmission line which is electrically long, It IS
advisable to terminate the line in its characteristic
impedance to prevent signal reflection and its associated
noise/cross-talk. A 180n termination resistor is provided
in the DS78C120/DS88C120 line receiver. To use the
termination resistor, connect pins 2 and 3 together and
pins 13 and 14 together. The 180n resistor provides a
good compromise between line reflections, power dissipation in the driver, and IR drop in the transmission
line. If power dissipation and IR drop are still a concern,
a capacitor may be connected in series with the resistor
to minimize power loss.

input thresholds are offset from 200 mV to 700 mY,
referred to the non-,inverting input, or -200 mV to
-700 mV, referred to the inverting input. Therefore,
if the input is open or short, the input will be greater
than the input threshold and the receiver will remain in
a specified logic state.
The input circuit of the receiver consists of a 5k resistor
terminated to ground through 120n on both inputs.
This network acts as an attenuator, and permits operation with common-mode input voltages greater than
±15V. The offset control input is actually another input
to the attenuator, but its resistor value is 56k. The offset control input is connected to the inverting input
side of the attenuator, and the input voltage to the
amplifier is the sum of the inverting input plus 0.09
times the voltage on the offset control input. When the
offset control input is connected to 5V the input amplifier will see VIN(INVERTlNG) + O.45V or VIN(lNVERTI NG) + 0.9V when the control input is connected
to 1OV. The offset control input will not significantly
affect the differential performance of the receiver over
its common-mode operating range, and will not change
the input impedance balance of the receiver.

The value of the capacitor is recommended to be the' line
length (time) divided by 3 times the resistor value.
Example: if the transmission line is 1,000 feet long,
(approximately 1000 ns) the capacitor value should be
1852 pF'. For additional application details, refer to
application notes AN-22 and AN-l08 in the National
Semiconductor Interface Data Book.

FAIL-SAFE OPERATION
Communication systems require elements of a system to
detect the' presence of signals in the transmission lines,
and it is desirable to have the system shut-down in a
fail-safe mode if the transmission line is open or short. To
facilitate the detection of input opens or shorts, the
DS78C120/DS88C120 incorporates an input threshold
voltage offset. This feature will force the line receiver
to a specific logic state if presence of either fault is a
condition.

It is recommended that the receiver be terminated
(500n or less) to insure it will detect an open circuit in
the presence of noise.
The offset control can be used to insure fail-safe operation for unbalanced interface (RS423) or for balanced
interface (RS422) op'eration.
For unbalanced operation, the receiver would be in an
indeterminate 'logic state if the offset control input was
open. Connecting the offset to 5V offsets the receiver
threshold 0.45V. The output is forced to a logic zero
state if the input is open or short.

Given that the receiver input threshold is ±200 mY,
an input signal greater than ±200 mV insures the receiver
will be in a specific logic state. When the offset control
input (pins 1 and 15) is connected to VCC = 5V, the

In a communications system, only the control signals
are required to detect input fault conditions. Advantages
of a balanced data transmission system over an unbal·
anced transmission system are:

For balanced operation with inputs short or open,
receiver C will be in an indeterminate logic state.
Receivers A and B will be in a logic zero state allowing
the NOR gate to detect the short or open condition.
The strobe will disable receivers A and B and may
therefore be used to sample the fail·safe detector.
Another method of fail·safe detection consists of filter·
ing the output of the NOR gate D so it would not
indicate a fault condition when receiver inputs pass
through the threshold region, generating an output
transient.

Integrated Circuits for
Digital Data Transmission

INTROI?UCTION

It is frequently necessary to transmit digital data
in a high'noise environment where ordinary inte·
grated logic circuits cannot be used because they
do not have sufficient noise immunity. One ~olu·
tion to this problem, of course, is to use high·
noise·immunity logic. In many cases, this approach
would require worst case logic swings of 30V,
requiring high power·supply voltages. Further,
considerable power would be needed to transmit
these voltage levels at high speed. This is especially
true if the lines must be terminated to eliminate
reflections, since practical transmission lines have a
low characteristic impedance.

A much better solution is to convert the ground
referred digital data at the transmission end into a
differential signal and transmit this down a bal·
anced, twisted·pair line. At the receiving end, any
induced noise, or voltage due to ground· loop cur·
rents, appears equally on both ends of the
twisted·pair line. Hence, a receiver which responds
only to the differential signal from the line will
reject the undesired signals even with moderate
voltage swings from the transmitter.

at the receiving end. Therefore, extremely high
noise immunities are not needed; and the trans·
mitter and receiver can be operated from the same
supplies as standard rntegrated logic circuits.

Figure 1 illustrates this situation more clearly.
When ground is used as a signal return as in Fig·
ure 1a, the voltage seen at the receiving end will be
the output voltage of the transmitter plus any
noise voltage induced in the signal line. Hence, the
noise immunity of the transmitter·receiver com·
bination must be equal to the maximum expected
noise from both sources.

This article describes the operation and use of a
line driver and line receiver for transmission sys·
tems using twisted·pair lines. The transmitter pro·
vides a buffered differential output from a DTL or
TTL input signal. A four·input gate is included on
the input so that the circuit can also perform logic.
The receiver detects a zero crossing in the differ·
ential input voltage and can directly drive DTL or
TTL integrated circuits at the receiving end. It also
has strobe capability to blank out unwanted input
signals. Both the transmitter and the receiver in·
corporate two independent units on a single silicon
chip.

The differential transmission scheme diagrammed
in Figure 1b solves this problem. Any ground noise
or voltage induced on the transmission lines will
appear equally on both inputs of the receiver. The
receiver responds only to the differential signal
coming out of the twisted·pair line and delivers a
single·ended output signal referred to the ground

gross overload conditions. Figure 5 shows the
ability of the circuit to drive a differential load:
that is, the transmission line. It can be seen that
for output currents less than 35 mA, the output
resistance is approximately l5n. At both temperature extremes, the output falls off at high currents.
At 'high temperatures, this is caused by current
limiting of the high output state. At low temperatures: the falloff of current gain in the low·
state output transistor produces this result.

FIGURE 4. Low-Stale Output Current as a Function of
Output Current

Figure 4 is a similar graph of the low-state output
characteristics. Here, the output resistance is about
5n with normal values of output current. With
larger currents, the output transistor is pulled out
of saturation; and the output voltage increases.
This is most pronounced at -55°C where the transistor current gain is the lowest. However, when
the output voltage rises about two diode drops
above ground, the collector-base junction of the
current-limit transistor becomes forward biased,

Load lines have been included on the figure to
show the differential output, with various load
resistances. The output swing can be read off from
the intersection of the output characteristic with
the load line. The figure shows that the driver can
easily handle load resistances greater than lOOn.

Figu're 6 shows the no load power dissipation, for
one·half of the dual line driver, as a function of
frequency. This information is important for two
reasons. First, the increase in power dissipation at
high frequencies must be added to the excess
power dissipation caused by the load to determine
the total package dissipation. Second, and more
important, it is a measure of the "glitch" current
which flows from the positive supply to ground
through the output transistors when the circuit i~

To summarize the characteristics of the DS7830
line driver, the input interfaces directly with stand·
ard TTL circuits. It presents a load which is
equivalent to a fan out of 3 to the circuit driving
it, and it operates from the 5.0V, ± 10% logic
supplies. The output can drive low impedance lines
down to 50n and capacitive loads up to 5000 [IF.
The time skew between the outputs is minimized
to reduce radiation from the twisted·pair lines, and
the circuit is designed to clamp common mode
transients coupled into the line. Short circuit pro·
tection is also provided. The integrated circuit con·
sists of two independent drivers fabricated on a
41 x 53 mil·square die using the standard TTL
process. A photomicrograph of the chip is shown

not properly designed, the current spikes in the
power supplies can become quite large; and the
power dissipation can increase by as much as a
factor of five between 100 KHz and 10 MHz. The
figure shows that, with no capacitive loading, the
power increase with frequencies as high as 10M Hz
is almost negligible. However, with large capacitive
loads, more power is required.
The line receiver is designed to detect a zero cross·
ing in the differential output of the line driver.
Therefore, the propagation time of the driver is
measured as the time difference between the appli·
cation of a step input and the point where the
differential output voltage crosses zero. A plot of
the propagation time over temperature is shown in
Figure 7. This delay is added directly to the propa·
gation time of the transmission line and the delay
of the line receiver to determine the total data·
propagation time. However, in most cases, the
delay of the driver is small, even by comparison to
the uncertainties in the other delays.

The transfer function of the circuit is given in
Figure 14. The loading is for a worst case fanout
of 2. The digital load is not linear, and this is
reflected as a non-linearity in the transfer function
which occurs with the output around 1.5V. These
transfer characteristics show that the only
significant effect of temperature is a reduction in
the positive swing at _55°C. However, the voltage
available remains well above the 2.5V required by
digital logic.

Figure 15 gives the response time, or propagation
delay, of the receiver. Normally, the delay through
the circuit is about 40 ns. As shown, th'e delay can
be increased, by the addition of a capacitor
between the response-time terminal and ground, to
make the device immune to fast noise spikes on
the input. The delay will generally be longer for
negative going outputs than for positive going
outputs.

Under normal conditions, the power dissipated in
the receiver is relatively low. However, with large
common mode input voltages, dissipation increases
markedly, as shown in Figure 16. This is of little
consequence with common mode transients, but
the increased dissipation must be taken into
account when there is a dc difference between the
grounds of the transmitter and the receiver. It is
important to note that Figure 16 gives the
dissipation for one half the dual receiver. The total
package dissipation will be twice the values given
when both sides· are operated under identical
conditions.

The variation of the internal termination resistance
with temperature is illustrated in Figure 1B.Taking
into account the initial tolerance as well as the
change with temperature, the termination resis·
tance is by no means precise. Fortunately, in most
cases, the termination resistance can vary
appreciably without greatly affecting the charac·
teristics of the transmission line. If the resistor
tolerance is a problem, however, an external resis·
tor can be used in place of the one provided within

The interconnection of the OS7830 line driver
with the 057820 line receiver is shown in Figure 19. With the exception of the transmission
line, the design is rather straightforward_ Connections on the input of the driver and the output or
strobe of the receiver follow standard design ru les
for .oTL or TTL integrated logic circuits. The load
presented by the driver inputs is equal to 3 standard digital loads, while the receiver can drive a
worst·case fanout of 2. The load presented by the
receiver strobe is equal to one standard load.

The purpose of C 1 on the receiver is to provide dc
isolation of the termination resistor for the transmission line_ This capacitor can both increase the
differential noise immunity, by reducing attenuation on the line, and reduce power dissipation in
both the transmitter and receiver. In some applica. tions, C1 can be replaced with a short between
Pins 1 and 2, which connects the internal termination resistor of the OS7820 directly across the
line. C2 may be included, if necessary, to control
the response time of the receiver, making it
immune to noise spikes that may be. coupled differentially into the transmission lines.

Termination Resistances

The effect of termination mismatches on the transmission line is shown in Figure 20. The line was
constructed of a twisted pair of No. 22 copper
conductors with a characteristic impedance of
approximately 170n. The line length was about
150 ns and it was driven directly from a OS7830
line driver. The data shows that termination resistances which are a factor of two off the nominal
value· do not cause significant reflections on the
line. The lower termination resistors do, however,
increase the attenuation.

Figure 21 gives the line-transmission characteristics
with various termination resistances when a dc
isolation capacitor is used. The line is identical to
that used in the previous example. It can be seen
that the transient response is nearly the same as a
dc terminated line_ The attenuation, on the other
hand, is considerably lower, being the same as an
unterminated line. An added advantage of using
the isolation capacitor is that the dc signal current
is blocked from the termination resistor which
reduces the average power drain of the driver and
the power dissipation in both the driver and
receiver.

The effect of different values of de isolation
capacitors is illustrated in Figure 22. This shows
that the RC time constant of the termination resistor/isolation capacitor combination should be 2 to
3 times the line delay_As before, this data was
taken for a 150 ns long line.

the transmitter looks like an open circuit to, voltages reflected from the receiving end of the transmission Ii'ne which try to drive it higher than its
normal dc state. This condition exists until the
voltage at the transmitting end becomes high
enough to forward bias the clamp diode on the 5V
supply. Much of the phenomena which does not
follow simple transmission-line theory is caused by
this. For example, with an unterminated line, the
overshoot comes from the reflected signal charging
the line capacitance to where the clamp diodes are
forward biased. The overshoot then decays at a
rate determined by the total line capacitance and
the input resistance of the receiver.

ducts, giVing effects which are similar to those
described for the high output. However, a current
of about 9 mA is required to do this, so it does not
happen under normal operating conditions.
To summarize, the'best termination is an RC combination with a time constant approximately equal
to 3 times the transmission-line delay. Even
though its value is not precisely determined, the
internal termination resi~tor of the integrated circuit can be used because the line characteristics are
not greatly affected by the termi nation resistor.
The only place that an RC termination can cause
problems is when the data transmission rate
approaches the line delay and the attenuation'
down the line (terminated) is greater than 3 dB.
This would correspond to more than 1000 ft. of
twisted-pair cable with No. 22 copper conductors.
Under these conditions; the noise margin can disappear with low-duty-cycle signals. If this is the
case, it is best to operate the twisted-pair line with,out a termination to minimize transmission losses.
Reflections should not be a problem as they will
be absorbed by the line losses.

When'the ground on the receiver is 15V more
negative than the ground at the transmitting end,
the decay with an unterminated line is faster, as
shown in Figure 23b. This occurs because there is
more current from the input resistor of the
receiver to discharge the line capacitance. With a
terminated line, however, the transmission characteristics are the same as for equal ground voltages because the terminating resistor keeps the line
from getting charged.
Figure 23c gives the transmission characteristics
when the receiver ground is 15V more positive
than the transmitter ground. When the line is not
termi nated, the differential voltage swing is in:
creased because the high output of the driver will
be pulled against the clamp diodes by the common
mode input current of the receiver. With a dc isolation capacitor, the differential swing will reach this
same value with a time constant determined by the
isolation capacitor and the input resistance of the
receiver. With a dc coupled termination, the characteristics are unchanged because the differential
load current is large by comparison to the common mode current so that the output transistors
of the driver are always conducting.

CONCLUSION

A method of transmitting digital information in
high-noise environments has been described. The
technique is a much more attractive solution than
high-noise-immunity logic as it has lower power
consumption, provides more noise rejection, operates from standard 5V supplies, and is fu lIy compatible with almost all integrated logic circuits. An
additional advantage ,is that 'the circuits can be
fabricated with integrated circuit processes used
for standard logic circuits.

The low output of the driver can also be pulled
below ground to where the lower clamp diode con-

APPENDIX A
LINE RECEIVER
Design Analysis
The purpose of this appendix is to derive mathematical expressions describing the operation of the
line receiver. It will be shown that the performance of the circuit is not greatly affected by the
absolute value of the components within the integrated circuit or by the supply voltage. Instead, it
depends mostly on how well the various parts
match.

which shows that the collector current of Q1 is
not affected by the common mode voltage.

The analysis will assume that all the resistors are
well matched in ratio and that the transistors are
likewise matched .. since this is easily accomplished
over a broad temperature range with monolithic
construction. However, the effects of component
mismatching will be discussed where important.
Further, large transistor current gains will be
assumed, but it will be pointed out later that this
is valid for current gains greater than about 10.

The output voltage on the collector of 02 is
VC2 = V+ - IC2R12

A schematic diagram of the 0$7820 line receiver

Finally, the threshold error due to finite gain in
the output stage can be considered. The collector
current of 07 from the bleeder resistor R 14, is
large by comparison to the base current of 08, if
08 has a reasonable current gain. Hence, the collector current of 07 does not change appreciably
when the output switches from a logic one to a
logic zero. This is even more true for 06, an
emitter follower which drives 07. Therefore, it is
safe to presume that 06 does not load the output
of the first-stage amplifier, because of the compounded current gain of the three transistors, and
that 08 is driven from a low resistance source.

This shows that the optimum value of R 12 is
dependent on supply voltage. For a 5V supply it
has a value of 4.7 kn. Substituting this and the
other component values into (A. 4),
V C2 = 2.83V SE + 0.081V+,

(A. 6)

which shows that the voltage on the collector of
02 will vary by about 80 mV for a lV change in
supply voltage.
The next step in the analysis is to obtain an
expression for the voltage gain of the input stage.

INTRODUCTION

Digital systems generally require the transmission of
digital signals to and from other elements of the system.
The component wavelengths of the digital signals will
usually be shorter than the electrical length of the cable
used to connect the subsystems together and, therefore,
the cables should be treated as a transmissions line. In
addition, the digital signal is usually exposed to hostile
electrical noise source which will require more noise
immunity then required in the individual subsystems
environment.

switching transients from actuating devices of neighbor·
ing control systems. Also external to a specific sub·
system, another subsystem may have a ground problem
which will induce noise on the system, as indicated in
Figure 2.

The requirements for transmission line techniques and
noise immunity are recognized by the designers of sub·
systems and systems, but the solution used vary con·
siderably. Two widely used example methods of the
solution are shown in Figure 1. The two methods

DISTORTION
The obi.ective is the transm ission and recovery of digital
intelligence between subsystems, and to this end, the
characteristics of the data recovered must resemble the
data transmitted. In Figure 4 there is a 'difference in the
pulse width of the data and timing signal transmitted,
and the corresponding signal received. In addition there
is a further difference in the signal when the data is
"AND"ed with the timing signal. The distortion of the
signal occurred in the transmission line and in the line
driver and receiver.

TIMING

The rise time in a transmission line is not an exponential
function but· a complementary error function. The high
frequency components of the step input are attenuated
and delayed more than the low frequency components.
This attenuation is inversely proportional to the frequency. Notice in Figure 6 particularly that the signal
takes much longer to reach its final dc value. This effect
is more significant for fast risetimes.
The Duty Cycle of the transmitted signal also causes
distortion. The effect is related to the signal rise time as
shown in Figure 7. The signal doesn't reach one logic
level before the signal changes to another level. If the
signal has a 1/2 (50%) Duty Cycle and the threshold of
the receiver is halfway between the logic levels, the distortion is small. But if the Duty Cycle is l/B as shown in
the second case the signal is considerably distorted. In
some cases, the signal may not reach the receiver threshold at all.

effect will tend to affect the timing of the recovered

In the previous example, it was assumed that the
threshold of the receiver was halfway between the ON E
and ZERO logic levels. If the receiver threshold isn't
halfway the receiver will contribute to the distortion of
the recovered signal. As shown in Figure 8, the pulse
time is lengthened or shortened, depending on the
polarity of the signal at the receiver. This is due to the
offset of the receiver threshold.

additional distortion. Figure 10 shows the signal on the
transmission line at the driver and at the receiver. In this
case the receiver was terminated in 120n, but the characteristic impedance of the line is much less. Notice that
the wave forms have significant steps due to the
incorrect termination of the line_ The signal is subject to
misinterpretation by the line receiver during the period
of this signal transient because of the distortion caused
by Duty Cycle and attenuation. In addition, the noise
margin of the signal is reduced.

The signal waveforms on the transmission line can be
estimated before hand by a reflection diagram. Figure 11
shows the reflection diagram of the rise time wave
forms. The voltage versus current plot on left is used to
predict the transient rise time of the signal shown on the
right. The initial condition on the transmission line is an
IR drop across the line termination. The first transient
on the line traverses from this initial point to zero current. The path it follows corresponds to the characteristic impedance of the line_ The second transient on the
diagram is at the line termination. As shown, the signal
reflects back and 'forth until it reaches its final dc value.

an unbalance reflection at the terminator. Therefore, the
lines should also be terminated for unbalanced 'signals.
Figure 16 shows the perfect termination configiJration
of a balanced transmission line. This termination method
is prim.arily required for accurate impedance measurements.

The circuit used for a line receiver in the balanced
method is a differential amplifier. Figure 14 shows a noise
transient induced equally on line A and line B from line
C. Because the signals' on line A and B are equal, the
signals are ignored by the differential line receiver. '
Likewise for the same reason, the differential signals on
line A and B from the driver will not induce transients on
line C. Thus, the balanced method doesn't generate noise
and also isn't susceptible to noise. On the other hand
the unbalanced method is more sensitive to noise and
also generates more noise.

The unbalanced method circuit used in this application
note up to this point is the unbalanced circuit shown in
Figure 1. The termination of its transmission line was
greater than the characteristic impedance of the unbal·
anced line and the circuit had considerable threshold
offset. The measured performance of the unbalanced circuit wasn't comparable to the balanced method. Therefore, for the following comparison of unbalanced and
balanced circuits, an improved termination shown in
Figure 17 will be used. This circuit terminates the line in
600 and minimized the receiver threshold offset.

The characteristic impedance of the unbalanced transmission line is less than the impedance of the balanced
transmission line. In the unbalanced method there is
more capacitance and less inductance than in the balanced method. In the balance method the Reactance to
adjacent wires is almost cancelled (see Figure 15). As a
result a transmission line may have a 60n unbalanced
impedance and a gOn balanced impedance. This means
that the unbalanced method, which is more susceptible
to IR drop, must use a smaller value termination, which
will further increase the IR drop in the line.

Standards RS·422 and RS·423

National Semiconductor
Application Note 214
John Abbott
October 1978

With the advent of the microprocessor, logic designs
have become both sophisticated and modular in concept.
Frequently the modules making up the system are
very closely coupled on a single printed circuit board
or cardfile. In a majority of these cases a standard bus
transceiver will be adequate. However because of the
distributed intelligence ability of the microprocessor,
it is becoming common practice for the peripheral
circuits to be physically separated from the host pro·
cessor with data communications being handled over
cables (e.g. plant environmental control or security
system). And often these cables are measured in hun·
dreds or thousands of feet as opposed to inches on a
backplane. At this point the component wavelengths
of the digital signals may become shorter than the
electrical length of the cable and consequently must
be treated as transmission lines. Further, these signals
are exposed to electrical noise sources which may
require greater noise immunity than the single chassis
system.

Semiconductor's application note AN·1OB and E.I.A.
standards RS422 (balanced) and RS423 (unbalanced).
A summary review of these notes will show that the
controlling factors in a voltage digital interface are:

It is the object of this application note to underscore
the more important design requirements for balanced
and unbalanced transmission lines, and to show that
National's DS1691 driver and DS7BLS120 receiver
meet or exceed all of those requirements.

1) The cable length
2) The modulation rate
3) The characteristic of the interconnection cable
4) The rise time of the signal

RS·422 and RS423 contain several useful guidelines
relative to the choice of balanced circuits versus unbalanced circuits. Figures 1a and 1b are the digital
interface for balanced (1a) and unbalanced (1b) circuits.
Even though the unbalanced interface circuit is intended
for use at lower modulation rates than the balanced
circuit, its use is not recommended where the following
conditions exist:
1) The interconnecting cable is exposed to noise
sources which may cause a voltage sufficient
to indicate a change of binary state at the load.
2) It is necessary to minimize interference with
other signals, such as data versus clock.
3) The interconnecting cable is too long electrically
for unbalanced operation (Figure 2)

THE REQUIREMENTS
The requirements for transmission lines and noise
immunity have been adequately recognized by National

CABLE LENGTH
, While there is no ,maximum cable length specified,
guidelines are given with respect to conservative operating distances as a function of modulation rate. Figure
2 is a composite of the guidelines provided by RS-422 ,
'and RS-423 for data modulation versus cable length.
The data is for 24 AWG twisted pair cable terminated
for worst case (due to I R drop) in a 100 Ohm load,
with rise and fall times equal to or less than one half
unit interval at the applied modulation rate.

As pointed out in AN-lOa, the duty cycle of the transmitted signal contributes to the distortion. The effect
is the result of rise time. Due to delay and attenuation
caused by the cable, it is possible due to AC averaging
of the signal, to be unable to reach one binary level
before it is changed to another. If the duty cycle is
1/2 (50%) and the receiver threshold is midway between
logic levels, the distortion is small. However if the duty
cycle were l/a (12.5%) the signal would be considerably distorted.

The maximum cable length between driver and load
is a function of the baud rate. But it is influenced by:
CHARACTERISTICS

1) A maximum common noise range of ±7 volts
A) The amount of common-mode noise
Difference of driver and receiver ground potential plus driver offset voltage and coupled
peak random noise.
B) Ground potential differences between driver
and load.
e) Cable balance
Differential noise caused by imbalance between the signal conductor and the common
return (ground)
2) Cable termination
At rates above 200 kilobaud or where the rise
time is 4 times the one way propagation delay
time of the cable (RS-422 Sec 7.1.2)
3) Tolerable signal distortion'

Driver Unbalanced (RS-423)
The unbalanced driver characteristics as specified by
RS-423 Sec 4.1 are'as follows:

MODULATION RATE
Section 3 of RS-422 and RS-423 states that the unbalanced voltage interface will normally be utilized
on data, timing or control circuits where the modulation
rate on these circuits is below 100 kilolJauds, and balanced voltage digital interface on circuits up to 10
megabauds. The voltage digital interface devices meeting
the electrical characteristics of this standard need
not meet the entire modulation range specified. They
may be designed to operate over narrower ranges to
more economically satisfy specific applications,particularly at the lower modulation rates.

~

1) A driver circuit should be a low impedance (50
Ohms or less) unbalanced voltage source that
will produce a voltage applied to the interconnecting cable in the range of 4 volts to 6 volts.
2) With a test load of 450 Ohms connected between
the driver output terminal and the driver circuit
ground, the magnitude of the voltage (VT) measured between the driver output and the driver
circuit ground shall not be 'less than 90% of the
magnitude for either binary state.
3) During transitions of the driver output between
alternating binary states, the signal measured
across a 450 Ohm test load connected between
the driver output and circuit ground should be
such that the voltage monotonically changes
between 0.1 and 0.9 of VSS. Thereafter, the
signal shall not vary more than 10% of VSS
from the steady state value, until the next binary
transition occurs, and at no time shall the instantaneous magnitude of VT and VT exceed
6 volts, nor be less than 4 volts. VSS is defined
as the voltage difference between the 2 steady
state values of the driver output.

FAIL-SAFE OPERATION
Communication systems require elements of a system
to detect the loss of signals in the transmission lines.
And it is desirable to have the system shut-down in a
fail-safe mode if the transmission line is open or short.
To facilitate the detection of input opens or shorts,
the DS78LS120/DS88LS120 incorporates an input
threshold voltage offset. This feature will force the
line receiver to a specific logic state if presence of
either fault condition exists.

It is recommended that the receiver be terminated
in 500 Ohms or less to insure it will detect an. open
circuit in the presence of noise.

The receiver input threshold is ±200 millivolts and an
input signal greater than ±200 mill ivolts insures the
receiver will be in a specific logic state. When the offset
control input is connected to a VCC = 5 volts, the
input thresholds are offset from 200 to 700 millivolts,
referred to the non·inverting input, or -200 to -700
millivolts, referred to the inverting input. Therefore,
if the input is open oOr short, the input will remain
in a specific state (See Figure 16).

For balanced operation with inputs short or open,
receiver C will be in an indeterminate logic state. Receivers A and B will be in a logic zero state allowing
the NOR gate to detect the short or open fault condition. The "strobe" input will disable the A and B
. receivers and therefore may be used to "sample" the
fail-safe detector (See Figure 17).

For unbalanced operation, the receiver would be in an
indeterminate logic state if the offset control input
was open. Connecting the offset to +5 volts, offsets
the receiver threshold 0.45 volts. The output is forced
to a logic zero state if the input is open or short.

FORWARD
Not the least of the problems associated with the design
or use of data processing equipment is the problem of
,providing for or, actually, interconnecting the differing
types and models of equipment to form specific proces:
sing systems.

standards because of the desire to provide/use equipment which interconnect to them.
Compliance with either the "official" or "defacto"
standards on the part of· equipment manufacturers is
voluntary. However, it is obvious that much can be
gained and little lost by providing equipment that offers
either the "official" or "defacto" standard I/O ports.

The magnitude of the problem becomes apparent when
one realizes that every aspect of the electrical, mechanical and architectural format must be specified. The most
common of the basic decisions confronting the engineer
include:

As can be imagined, the entire subject of interface in
data processing systems is complicated and confusing,
particularly to those not intimately involved in the dayto-day aspects of interface engineering or management.
However, at the component level the questions simplify
to knowing what standards apply and what circuits or
components are available to meet the standards.

• Type of logic (negative or positive)
• Threshold levels
• Noise immunity
• Form of transmission
• Balanced/unbalanced, terminated/unterminated
• Unidirectional/bidirectionai, simplex/multiplexed
• Type of transmission line
• Connector type and pin out
• Bit or byte oriented
• Baud rate

This application note summarizes the important electrical characteristics of the most commonly accepted
interface standards and offers recommendations on how
to use National Semiconductor integrated Circuits to
meet those standards.

If each make and/or model of equipment presented a
unique interface at its I/O ports, "interface" engineering
would become a major expenditure associated with the
use of data processing equipment.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
The interface standards covered in this application
note are listed in Table I. The body of the text
expands upon the scope and application of each
listed standard and summarizes important electrical
parameters.

Fortunately, this is not the case as various interested
or cognizant groups have analyzed specific recurring
interface areas and recommended "official" standards
around which common I/O ports could be structured.
Also, the I/O specifications of some equipment with
widespread popularity such as the IBM 360/370 computer and DEC minicomputer have become "defacto"

PERIPHERAL

INTERFACE

To date, the only standards dealing with the interface between processors and other equipment are
the "defacto" standards in the form of specifications issued by IBM and DEC covering the models
360/370 I/O ports and the Unibus@, respectively.

2.4.3 MIL-STD-188-114 Unbalanced.

3.1 IBM specification GA-22-6974-0 covers the
electrical characteristics, the format of information and the control sequences of the data
transmitted between 360/370's and up to 10
I/O ports.

This standard is similar to RS423 with
the exception that loaded circuit driver
output voltage at R L = 450n must be
90% of the open circuit output voltage vs
±2V at RS = 100n for RS422.

the interface is an unbalanced bus using 95n,
terminated, coax cables. Devices connected to
the bus should feature short-circuit protection,
hysteresis in the receivers, and open-emitter
drivers. Careful attention should be paid to
line lengths and quality in order to limit cable
noise to less than 400 m V.

3.2 DEC Unibus®
Another example of an unofficial industry
standard is the interface to a number of DEC
minicomputers. This interface, configured as a
120n double-terminated data bus is given the
®Registered trademark of Digital Equipment Corp.

name Unibus®. Devices connected to the bus
should feature hysteresis in the receivers and
open·collect!>r driver outputs. Cable noise
should be held to less than 600 mV.

4.0 INSTRUMENTATION TO COMPUTER INTERFACE STANDARDS
b)

4.1 Introduction
The problem of linking instrumentation to processors to handle real-time test and measure·
ment problems was largely a custom interface
problem. Each combination of instruments
demanded unique interfaces, thus inhibiting the
wide spread usage of small processors to day-today test, measurement and control applications.

4.2 IEEE 488
IEEE 488 covers the functional, mechanical
and electrical interface between laboratory
instrumentation (Le., signal generators, DPM's,
counters, etc.) and processors such as program·
mabie calculators and minicomputers. Equipment with IEEE 488 I/O ports can be readily
daisy chained in any combination of up to 15
equipments (including processor) spanning distances of up to 60 feet. 16 lines (3 handshake,
5 control and 8 data lines) are required.

Two groups addressed the problem for specific
environments. The results are:
a)

The CAMAC system pioneered by the
nuclear physics community.

It allows either serial or parallel interconnection
of instruments via a "crate" controller.

Microbus™ considers the interface between
MaS/LSI microprocessors and interfacing
devices in close physical proximity which communicate over 8-bit parallel unified bus systems.
It specifies both the functional and electrical
characteristics of the interface and is modeled
after the 8060, 8080 and 8900 families of
microprocessors as shown in Figures 8, 9 and
10.

The electrical requirements of the interfaces
are compatible with DTL and TTL logic levels.

BUS CIRCUITS

Data bus circuits are not transmission line circuits in the normal interpretation where the transmission line is electrically long (1/4 wave length) with respect
to the baud rate. Like unbalanced transmission lines, the data transmission is susceptible to common-mode noise, such as ground I R noise and induced reactive
noise from crosstalk. A bus is a communications method where many elements of a system time share the same signal (address or data) bus. A bus shouldn't
extend out of its subsystem's electronic enclosure without special care. Line length in excess of 10 feet is not recommended without slew rate control. Cable~
should be in the form of twisted pair or flat cable where a signal wire is alternated with a ground wire.

General Description

00

This family of 8 high speed Schottky 8-bit TRI-STATE
bidirectional transceivers are designed to provide bidirectional drive for. bus oriented microprocessor and
digital communications systems. They are all capable
of sinking 16 mA on the A ports and 48 mA on the
B ports (bus ports). PNP inputs for low input current
and an increased output high (VOH) level allow compatibility with MaS, CMOS, and other technologies
that have a higher threshold and less drive capabilities_
In addition, they all feature glitch-free power up/down

on the B port preventing erroneous gl itches on the
system bus.in power up or down_

DP7303/DP8303 and DP7304B/DP8304B are featured
with Transmit/Receive (TiR) and Chip Disable (CD)
inputs to simplify control logic_ For greater design
flexibility, DP7307/DP8307 and DP7308/Dp8308 are
featured with Transmit (T) and Receive (R) control
inputs_

Bus Transceivers

0826810, 0826811 Quad Bus Transceivers
General Description
The D526510 and D526511 are quad Bus Transceivers
consisting of 4 high speed bus drivers with open-collector
outputs capable of sinking 100 mA at O.BV and 4 high
speed bus receivers. Each driver output is connected
internally to the high speed bus receiver in addition to
being connected to the package pin. The receiver has a
5chottky TTL output capable of driving 10 5chottky
TTL unit loads.

The D526510 and D526511 feature advanced 5chottky
processing to minimize propagation delay. The device
package also has 2 ground pins to improve ground current handling and allow close decoupling between Vee
and ground at the package. Both GND 1 and GND 2
should be tied to the ground bus external to the device
package.

An active low enable gate controls the 4 drivers so that
outputs of different device drivers can be connected
together for party-line operation.

Features
•
•
•
•
•
•

The bus output high-drive capability in the low state
allows party-line operation with a line impedance as low
as 100n. The line can be terminated at both ends,
and still give considerable noise margin at the receiver.
Th~ receiver typical switching point is 2V.

Input to bus is inverting on D526510
Input to bus is non-inverting on D526511
Quad high speed open-collector bus transceivers
Driver outputs can sink 100 mA at O.BV maximum
Advanced 5chottky processing
PNP inputs to reduce input loading

OS3662 Quad High Speed TrapezoidalT~ Bus Transceiver
General Description

Features

The DS3662 is a quad high speed Schottky bus transceiver
intended for use with terminated 1200 impedance lines. It
is specifically designed to. reduce noise in unbalanced
transmission systems. The open collector drivers generate precise trapezoidal waveforms with rise and fall times
of 15 ns (typical), which are relatively independent of capacitive loading conditions on the outputs. This reduces
noise coupling to the adjacent lines without any appreciable impact on the maximum data rate obtainable with
high speed bus transceivers. In addition, the receivers use
a low pass filter in conjunction with a high speed comparator, to further enhance the noise immunity. Tightly
controlled threshold levels on the receiver provide equal
rejection to both negative and positive going noise pulses
on the bus.

• Pin to pin functional replacement for DS8641
• Guarantef)d AC specifications on noise immunity and
propagation delay over the specified temperature and
supply voltage range
• Temperature insensitive receiver thresholds track bus
logic level
• Trapezoidal bus waveforms reduce noise coupling to
adjacent lines
• Precision receiver thresholds provide maximum nOise
immunity and symmetrical response to positive and
negative going pulses
• Open collector driver output allows wire-OR connection,
• l:Iigh speed Schottky technology
• 15 p.A typical bus termination current with normal Vee or
withVee=OV
• Glitch free power up/down protection on the driver
output
• TTL compatible driver and disable inputs, and receiver
outputs

The external termination is intended to be a 1800 resistor
from the bus to 5V logic supply, together with a 3900
resistor from the bus to ground. The bus can be terminated
at one or both ends. A two input NOR gate is provided to
disable all drivers in a package simultaneously.

I. Introduction
A single ended Bus is an unbalanced Data Transmission medium, which is timeshared by several system
elements. Like any unbaianced system, it is highly susceptible to common-mode noise, such as ground nOise
and crosstalk. In general, the latter determines the
maximum physical length of the Bus that can be incorporated with acceptable reliability. Crosstalk is a major
problem in high speed computer Buses which employ
Schottky Transceivers for increased data rate capability.
It is therefore highly desirable to minimize crosstalk
noise in Bus circuits to allow for longer Buses and to
provide higher system reliability.
This article describes the operation of the DS(3662 Quad
High Speed Trapezoidal Bus Tranceiver, which has been
specially designed to minimize crosstalk problems. The
Driver generates precise Trapezoidal waveforms that
reduce noise coupling to adjacent Bus channels. The
Receiver uses a low pass filter, whose time constant is
matched to the Driver slew rate to provide maximum
noise rejection with acceptable signal delay characteristics. Precision high speed circuitry optimizes noise
immunity without sacrificing the high data rate capability
of Schottky Tranceivers.

II. The Problem
Conventional Bus Drivers are designed to provide high
output currents for charging and discharging relatively
large Bus capacitances quickly. These high speed transitions are characterized by peak slew rates of up to 5
volts/ns around the mid-region of the transition. This
can cause considerable noise coupling to adjacent
lines, commonly referred to as crosstalk.·Crosstalk also

s-L

includes noise induced by sources external to the Bus.
Additional noise may be generated due to reflections at
imperfect terminations.
Bus Receivers are designed to respond to high speed
transitions and to provide low propagation delays.
Unfortunately, their fast response results in high noise
sensitivity. The combined effect of the noise on the Bus
and the sensitivity of the Receiver to the noise severely
limits the Bus performance.

III. The Solution
The above situation can be considerably improved by
employing noise reduction techniques in both the Driver
and the Receiver circuits. Slew rate control can be used
in the Driver to reduce crosstalk, and Receiver noise sensitivity can be reduced by using a low pass filter at its
input. These techniques are commonly used in line
transmission circuits where the associated data rates
in general are considerably lower. However, these
techniques do present some difficulties in high speed
Bus circuits. Increased rise and fall times, resulting
from slew rate control, can affect data rates unless care
is taken to limit the maximum rise and fall times to minimum pulse width requirements. With any appreciable
slew rate control, the rise and fall times of the resulting
Driver output waveform will be comparable to the pulse
widths at maximum data rates. This condition dictates
high fidelity of the transmitted waveform and precise
Receiver thresholds at the middle of the Bus voltage
swing in order to minimize pulse width distortion.
Figure 1 illustrates the different sources of pulse width
distortion due to the trapezoidal nature of the signal ..

ful Bus length to less than 10 feet. In" contrast, the
DS3662's Driver generates much less crosstalk and its
Receiver is immune to the Induced noise even when the
noise amplitude exceeds the signal amplitude as seen
In the oscillogram at 50 feet. When the same experiment was repeated with the DS8641, It responded to the
noise even at 10 feet as shown in Figure 14.

The AC response of the DS3662 Driver and Receiver are
depicted in Figures 11 and 12 respectively. Figure 11
shows the typical Driver output waveform as compared
to a standard high speed Transceiver output. Oscillo·
grams in Figure 12 demonstrate the ability of the
Receiver to distinguish the trapezoidal signal from the
noise. Here the Receiver rejects a noise pulse of 19ns
width, while accepting a narrower signal pulse (= 16 ns)
of the same amplitude (The signal is triangular since the
pulse width is smaller than the rise and fall time of the
Trapezoidal Driver output).

Figure 15 shows the plots of maximum data rate versus
line length for the three Transceivers discussed above
under two different conditions. The graph in Figure 15a
is obtained with no consideration to the pulse width dis·
tortion whereas the one in Figure 15b is obtained for a
maximum allowable pulse width distortion of ±100/0. A
square waveform is used so that the pulse width dis·
tortion criteria will apply to both positive and negative
going pulses. These graphs clearly show that the
DS3662 can be used at considerably higher data rates
with lower distortion for longer distances than the other
two Transceivers (Figure 15b) although the others have
a slightly higher data rate capability at short distances
with high timing distortion (Figure 15a).

The performance of the Transceiver under actual ope·
rating condition is demonstrated in Figures 13 through
15. Oscillograms in Figure 13 clearly show the capa·
bility of the DS3662 in real life situations. Here it is compared with the DSBB34 under identical conditions. The
Transceivers drive a minicomputer Bus (flat ribbon
cable) 100 feet long, terminated at the far end with taps
at various lengths for connecting to the Receiver input.
The cable is randomly folded to generate crosstalk
between the various parts. In addition a noise pulse is
induced on the signal line by driving an adjacent line
with a pulse generator. This corresponds to the second
dominant pulse in the Bus waveforms at approximately
600ns from the main Signal pulse. As can be seen, the
DSBB34 with fast rise and fall times on the Driver output
generates more crosstalk and its Receiver easily
responds to this crosstalk and to the externally induced
noise (even though it has hysteresis!), limiting the use-

VII. Conclusion
The DS3662, with its combination of a trapezoidal Driver
and a noise rejecting Receiver utilizing on chip capaci·
tors, represents a Significant improvement in high speed
Bus circuits and a solution to"Bus noise problems com·
monly encountered in Mini and Microcomputer systems.

Microcomputer Buses

Abstract: This paper focuses on the noise components
that have a significant impact on the performance of a
high speed microcomputer bus. An overview of their
nature is followed by ways to minimize theircontribution
by suitable design of the PC board backplane, the termination network and the bus transceiver. The D83662 trapezoidal bus transceiver, which is specifically designed to
minimize such noise on high speed buses, is presented
along with its performance data. And to conclude, some
possible new transceiver designs for further improvement
of the bus performance are explored.

The bus appears like a transmission line to any signal having a transition time 't,' less than the round trip delay '2T L'
of the bus. The bus delay 'TL' is given by:
h= L --.lL1 C1
where

(1)

L = length ofthe bus
L1 = distributed inductance per unit length·
C1 = distributed capacitance per unit length

For a typical unloaded 1000 microstrip line, C1 '" 20 pFIft
and L1 '" 0.2 ,.H/ft. Therefore, h'" 2.0 nslft. This corresponds to approximately half the speed of light.
However, the capacitive loading at each connector on the
backplane increases the deiay time significantly. The
'loaded delay time 'TLL' is given by:

INTRODUCTION
As the microcomputer bus bandwidth is extended to
handle ever increasing clock rates, the noise susceptibility of a single-ended bus poses a serious threat to the
overall system integrity. Thus, it is mandatory that the
various noise contributions be taken into account in thedesign of the bus transceiver, the PC board backplane and
the bus terminations to avoid intermittent or total failure
of the system.
Although noise such as crosstalk and reflections are inevitable in any practical bus configuration, their Impact on
the system can be determined and minimized by 9areful
design of all three components mentioned above. The
combined contribution of the noise under worst-case conditions should be within the noise margin for reliable bus
operation.

TLL=TL --.11 + (C L/C1)

(2)

where C L = distributed load capacitancelunit length
Given a 10 pF loading at each connector (connector+
transceiver capaCitance) and a 0.6" spacing between connectors, C L =200 pF/ft and hL=6.6 nslft. So even a 6"
long bus has a 2T LL = 6.6 ns, which is higher than the transition time (t,) of many high speed bus drivers. When in
doubt, it is always better to use the transmission line approach thaI) the lumped circuit approach as the latter Is an
approximation of the former. Also, the transmission line
analysis gives more pessimistic (worst-case) values of
crosstalk and reflection and is, hence, safer.

CROSSTALK REDUCTION

The design of the transceiver plays a significant role in
minimizing crosstalk and reflection. The bus can be optimized for minimum noise at a given bandwidth by using a
trapezoidal driver having suitable rise and fall times along
with a matched low pass filtered receiver which provides a
symmetrical noise margin. The OS3662 is one such transceiver, the first member in the family of trapezoidal bus
transceivers available from National Semiconductor
Corporation. This device represents a significant Improvement in high speed bus circuit design and provides a solution to commonly encountered bus noise problems.

The crosstalk is due to the distributed capacitive coupling
Cc and the distributed Inductive coupling Lc between two
lines. When crosstalk is measured on an undrlven sense
line next to a driven line (both terminated at their
characteristic impedances), the near end crosstalk and
the far end crosstalk have quite distinct features, as
shown in Figure 1. Their r~spective peak amplitudes are:
VNE=KNE(2h)(Vl/tr)
VNE=KNE(V 1)

fortr>2h

(3)

fortr<2h

(4)

VFE = KFE(L)(Vl/t r)

(5)

where VI = signal swing on the drive line.
The coupling constants are given by the expressions:

THE MICROCOMPUTER BUS
A typical micrQcomputer bus usually consists of a printed
circuit board backplane with signal and ground traces on
one side and a ground plane on the other. The iength
ranges from a few inches to several feet with as many as
32 closely spaced (0.6" typical) card edge connectors.
Each signal line interacts with the ground plane to form a
transmission line with characteristic impedance 'Z' in the
range of 901l-120IHypical. It is desirable to have as large a
'Z' as possible in order to reduce the drive requirement of
the bus driver and to reduce the power dissipate-d at the
terminations. But much larger values of 'Z' translate to
significantly larger physical dimensions and therefore are
not very practical.

The near end component reduces to zero at the far end and
vice versa. At any point in between, the crosstalk is a fractional sum of near and far end crosstalk waveforms shown.
It should be noted from expressions 6 and 7 that the far
end crosstalk can have either polarity whereas the near
end crosstalk always has the same polarity as the signal
causing it. In microstrip backplanes the far end crosstalk
pulse is usually the opposite polarity of the original Signal.

2-40

Although the real world bus is far from the ideal situation.
depicted in Figure 1, .several useful observations that
apply to a general case can be made:

2. Smaller signal amplitude with the same transition time
reduces bus drive requirements without reducing noise
immunity.

1. The crosstalk always scales with the signal amplitude.
2. Absolute crosstalk amplitude is proportional to slew
rate VIII" not just 111,.
3. Far end crosstalk width is always t,.
4. For t,<2h, the near end crosstalk amplitude VNE expressed as a fraction of signal amplitude VI is a function
of physical layout only.
5. The higher the value of 't,' the lower the percentage of
crosstalk (relative to signal amplitude).

3. Far end crosstalk is eliminated if the receiver is designed to reject pulses having pulse widths less than or
equal to t,.
4. When t,< 2T L, the near end crosstalk immunity for a
given percentage noise margin has to be built into the
backplane PC layout. Since (V NEiVl) = KNE for this case,
KNE should be kept lower than the available worst-case
noise margin. KNE may be reduced by either increasing the
spacing between lines or by introducing a ground line in
between. The ground line, in addition to increasing the
spacing between the signal lines, forces the electric field
lines to converge on it, significantly reducing crosstalk.

The corresponding design implications are:
1. The noise margin expressed as a percentage of the signal swing is what's important, not the absolute noise
margin. Therefore, to improve noise immunity, the percentage noise margin has to be maximized. This is achieved by
reducing the receiver threshold uncertainty region and by
centering the threshold between the high and low levels.

5. For minimum crosstalk the rise and fall times of the
signal waveform should be as large as possible consistent with the minimum pulse width requirements of the
bus. A driver that automatically limits the slew rate of the
transition can go a long way in reducing crosstalk.

Functional' Description
,

'

The DS3666 is an 8·channel bi·directional transceiver with
internal logic specifically configured to implement the
IEEE-488 bus interface. Expansion logic is included so
that two DS3666 devices may be interconnected to form
the complete 16·lIne interface. This approach is equivalent
to pairing the DS75160A and the DS75162A devices to implement the 16·line bus. The port connections to the bus
lines have internal terminators, in accordance with the
IEEE·488 Standard, that are deactivated when the device
is powered down. This feature guarantees no bus loading
when Vcc=OV. The bus port data outputs have a control
mode that either enables or disables the active upper
stage of the totem·pole configuration. When the upper
stage Is disabled, the data outputs operate as open collec·
tor outputs, which are necessary for parallel polling. In
compliance with the system organization of the manage·
ment signal lines, the NRFD/NDAC bus port output is a
fixed open collector configuration. Also, the SRQ/DAV bus
port output is configured so that the SRQ output is open
,collector in the expanded Implementation of the device.
Transceiver direction control is divided into three groups.
The NRFD/NDAC and data lines are controlled by the TE
input. The RENIIFC line is controlled by the SC input. And

the EOliATN and SRQ/DAV lines are controlled by the TE or
DC input, depending on the expansion mode. A special
case is the direction of the designated EOlline, which is a
function of both the TE and DC inputs, as well as the logic
level present on the ATN line.

IEEE·488 Specification Summary
logic Nomenclature. When referring to the IEEE·488
specification publication, the following logic conventions
are used:
'
1) A "true" condition corresponds to a logic low signal
level.
2) A "false" condition corresponds to a logic high signal
level.
Bus Specification. The IEEE·488 bus is comprised of 16
signal lines intended for digital data exchange at a maxi·
mum rate of 1 Mbaud and for a maximum transmission
path length of 20 meters.
Terminal Devices. The IEEE·488 bus will support a maxi·
mum of 15 interconnected devices. These devices may be
configured in four different modes of operation:
1) Talk only (e.g., counter)
2) Listen only (e.g., printer)
3) Listen and talk (e.g., multi meter)
4) Listen, talk, and control (e.g., calculator)
Data Bus. The data bus has 8 signal lines, denoted 010,
through DIOa. These lines carry data and Interface
messages in a bi·directional asynchronous, bit parallel,
byte serial form.
Data Byte Transfer Control Bus. These 3 signal lines are
used to control the transfer of data bytes across the data
bus lines.
1) NRFD (Not Ready for Data). This signal originates from
a listen device and indicates to a talker that a listen
device is not ready to accept data.

2) DAV (Data Valid). This signal originates from a talker
device and indicates to a Iisten device that data present
on the data bus is valid.
3) NDAC (Not Data Accepted). This signal originates from
a listen device and indicates to a talker device that data
on the data bus has not been accepted.
General Interface Management Bus. These 5 signal lines
provide general management of all bus operations.
1) ATN (Attention). This Signal originates from a controller
device and indicates to other devices on the bus how
the data bus Information is to be interpreted.
2) IFC (Interface Clear). This signal originates from a con·
troller device and causes all interface logic to be set to
a known state.
3) REN (Remote Enable). This Signal originates from a
controller device and is used in conjunction with other
messages to tell a remote device which of two sources
of Information is to be used. The source is designated
as being remote or local.
4) SRQ (Service Request). This Signal is generated by a
remote device to indicate to the controller device a
need for attention.
5) EOI (End or Identify). This signal is generated by a talker
device to indicate the end of a multi byte transfer. This
signal may also originate from a controller, in conjunction with ATN to execute a polling sequence.

083667 TRI-STATE® Bidirectional Transceiver

General Description

Features

The DS3667 Is a high speed Schottky 8-channel bidire,ctional transceiver designed for digital information and
communication systems. Pin selectable totem-pole/open
collector outputs are provided at all driver 'outputs. This
feature, together with the Dumb Mode which puts both
driver and receiver outputs in TRI-STATE at the same time,
means higher flexibility of system design. PNP inputs are
used at all driver inputs for minimum loading, and
hysteresis is provided at all receiver Inputs for added
noise margin. A power up/down protection circuit is included at all output\3 to provide glitch·free operation
dlJring Vee power up or down.

Functional Description

DS75160A

DS75160A
This device is an 8·channel bi·directional transceiver with
one common direction control input, denoted TE. When
used to implement the IEEE·488 bus, this device is con·
nected to the eight data bus lines, designated DI0 1-DIO s.
The port connections to the bus lines have internal termin·
ators, in accordance with the IEEE·488 Standard, that are
deactivated when the device is powered down. This
feature guarantees no bus loading when Vcc = OV. The bus
port outputs also have a control mode that either enables
or disables the active upper stage of the totem·pole con·
figuration. When this control input, denoted PE, is in the
high state, the bus outputs operate in the high·speed
totem·pole mode. When PE is in the loW state, the bus·out·
puts operate as open collector outputs which are neces·
sary for parallel polling.

DS75161A
This device is also an 8·channel bi·directional transceiver
which is specifically configured to implement the eight
management signal lines of the IEEE·488 bus. This device,
paired with the DS75160A, forms the complete 16·line
interface between the IEEE·488 bus and asingle controller
instrumentation system. In compliance with the system
organization of the management signal lines, the SRO,
NDAC, and NRFD bus port outputs are open collector. In
contrast to the DS75160A, these open collector outputs
are a fixed configuration. The direction control is divided
into three groups. The DAV, NDAC, and NRFD transceiver
directions are controlled by the TE input. The ATN, SRO,
REN, and IFC transceiver directions are controlled by the
DC input. The EOI transceiver direction is a function of
both the TE and DC inputs, as well as the logic level present on the ATN channel. The port connections to the bus
lines have internal terminators identical to the DS75160A.

Note 1: The 053686, 053687 and 053654 contain an internal inductive fly-back clamp circuit connected from the output to ground. As an example, 053686 driving a relay solenoid connected to 28V would
clamp the output vOltage fly-back transient at 56V caused by the solenoid's stored inductive current. This clamp protects the circuit output and quenches the fly-back.
Note 2: The 083654 is a 10-bit shift register followed by 10 enabled drivers. The input circuit is equivalent to a 4k resistor to ground, and the logic input thresholds are 2.SV and O.8V. The recommended power
supply voltage is 7.5V to 9.5V. The circuit can be cascaded to be a 20 or 30-bit shift register.
Note 3: Latch-up vo~tage is the maximum voltage the output can sustain when switching an inductive load.
Not. 4: 053680 has a differential input circuit.
Not. 5: OP831 0 inverting, positive edge latching.
Not.6: OP8311 inverting, fall through latch.
Note 7: Bubble memory coil driver.
Note 8: 053668 35V, latch-up with output fault protection.

DP7310/DP8310/DP7311/DP8311
Octal Latched Peripheral Drivers
General Description
The DP7310/8310, DP7311/8311 Octal Latched Peripheral
Drivers provide the function of latching eight bits of data
with open collector outputs, each driving up to 100mA
DC with an operating voltage range of 30 volts. Both
devices are designed for low input currents, high
input/output voltages, and feature a power up clear (out.
puts off) function.

• Parallel latching or buffering

The DP7310/8310 are positive edge latching. Two active
low write/enable inputs are available for convenient data
bussing without external gating.

Applications

The DP7311/8311 are fall through latches. The active low
strobe input latches d'lja or allows fall through operation
when held at logic "0". The latches are cleared (outputs
off) with a logic "0" on the clear pin.

• Separate active low enables for easy data bussing
• Internal "glitch free" power up clear
• 10% Vce tolerance

• High current high voltage drivers
• Relay drivers
• Lamp drivers
• LED drivers

Features

• TRIAC drivers

• High current, high voltage open collector outputs

• Solenoid drivers

• Low current, high voltage inputs

• Stepper motor drivers

• All outputs simultaneously sink rated current "DC"
with no thermal derating at maximum rated
temperature.

• Level translators
• Fiber-optic LEQ drivers

053668 Quad Fault Protected Peripheral-Driver
General Description

Applications

The OS3668 quad peripheral driver is designed for those
applications where low operating power, high brea~down
voltage, high output current and low output ON voltage are
required. Unlike most peripheral drivers available, a unique
fault protection circuit is incorporated on each output. When
the load current exceeds 1.0 A (approximately) on any output for more than a built-in delay time, nominally 25 p.s, that
output will be shut off by its protection circuitry with no effect
on other outputs. This condition will prevail until that protection circuitry is reset by toggling the corresponding input or
the enable pin low for at least 0.5 p.s. The 25 p.s built-in
delay is provided to ensure that the protection circuitry is not
triggered by turn-on surge currents associated with certain
kinds of loads.

•
•
•

The OS3668's inputs combine TIL compatibility with high
input impedance. In fact, its extreme low input current allows it to be driven directly by a MOS device. The outputs
are capable of sinking 600 mA each and offer- a 70V breakdown. However, for inductive loads the output should 'be
clamped to 35V or less to avoid latch up during turn off
(inductive fly-back protection - refer AN-213). An on-Chip
clamp diode capable of handling 800 mA is provided at
each output for this purpose. In addition, the OS3668 incorporates circuitry that guarantees glitch-free power up or
dpwn operation and a fail-safe feature which puts the output
in a high impedance state when the input is open.
The molded package is specifically constructed to allow increased power dissipation over conventional packages. The
four ground pins are directly connected to the device chip
with a special copper· lead frame. When the quad driver is
soldered into a PC board, the power rating of the dev.ice
improves significantly.

053669 Quad High Current Peripheral Driver
General Description
The DS3669 is a non-inverting quad peripheral driver
similar to the DS365B. These drivers are designed for
those applications where low operating power, high
breakdown voltage, high output current and low output
ON voltage are required. A unique input circuit combines
TTL compatibility with high impedance. In fact, its extreme low input current allows it to be driven directly by a
CMOS device.
The outputs are capable of sinking 600 rnA each and offer
a 70V breakdown. However, for inductive loads the output
should be clamped to 35V or less to avoid latch-up during
turn off (inductive fly back protection-refer AN-213). An
on-chip clamp diode capable of handling BOO rnA is provided at each output for this purpose_ In addition, the
DS3669 incorporates circuitry that guarantees glitch-free
power up or down operation.
The molded package is specifically constructed to allow
increased power dissipation over conventional packages.
The four ground pins are directly connected to the device
chip with a special copper lead frame. When the quad
driver is soldered into a PC board, the power rating of the
device improves Significantly.

083680 Quad Negative Voltage Relay Driver
General Description
The DS3680 is a quad high voltage negative relay driver
designed to operate over wide ranges of supply voltage,
common-mode voltage, and ambient temperature, with
50 mA sink capability. These drivers are intended for
switching the ground end of loads which are directly connected to the negative supply, such as in telephone relay
systems.
Since there may be considerable noise and IR drop between logic ground and' negative supply ground in many
applications, these drivers are designed to operate with a
high common-mode range (± 20V referenced to negative
supply ground). Each driver has a common-mode range
separate from the other drivers in the package, which permits input signals from more than one element of the
system.

The driver outputs Incorporate transient suppression
clamp networks, which eliminate the need for external
'networks when used In applications of switching inductive loads. A fall-safe feature is incorporated to insure
that, if the VON input or both inputs are open, the driver will
be OFF.

Features

With low differential input current requirements (typically
100 p,A), these drivers are compatible with TTL, LS and
CMOS logic. Differential inputs permit either inverting or
non-Inverting operation.

053686 Dual Positive Voltage Relay Driver
General Description
The DS3686 is a high voltage/current positive voltage
relay driver having many features not available in present
relay drivers.

current levels-base drive for the output transistor is
obtained from the load in proportion to the required
loading conditions. Typical Vee power with both
outputs "ON" is 90 mW.

PNP inputs provide both TTL/LS compatibility and
high input impedance for low input loading.

The circuit also features output transistor protection if
the Vee supply is lost by forcing the output into the
high impedance "OFF" state with the same breakdown
levels as when Vee was applied.

Output leakage is specified over temperature at an out,
put voltage of 54V. Minimum output breakdown (ac/
latch breakdown) is specified over temperature at 5 mAo
This clearly defines the actual breakdown of the device
since the circuit has incorporated in it an internal
reference which does not allow output breakdown
'latching found in existing relay drivers. Additionally.
this internal reference circuit feature will eliminate the
need in most cases of an external clamping (inductive
transient voltage protection) diode. When the output is
turned "OFF" by input logic conditions the resulting
inductive voltage transient seen at the output is de tected
by an internal zener reference. The reference'then
momentarily activates the output transistor long enough
so that the relay energy is discharged. This feature
eliminates the need of external circuit protection com,
ponents and insures output transistor protection.

Note 1: "Absolute Maximum Ratings" are those values beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. Except for "Operating
Temperature Range" they are not meant to imply that the devices should be operated at these limits. The table of "Electrical Characteristics"
provides conditions for actual device operation.

Note 2: Voltage values are with respect to network ground terminal unless otherwise specified.
Note 3: The voltage between two emitters of a multiple-emitter transistor.
Note 4: Value applies when the base·emitter resistance (RBEI is equal to or less than 500n.
Note 5: The maximum voltage which should be applied to any output when it is in the "OFF" state.
Note 6: Both halves of these dual circuits may conduct rated current simultaneously; however, power dissipation averaged over a short time
interval must fall within the continuous dissipation rating.
Note 7: For the OS75450 only, the substrate (pin 81 must always be at the most·negative device voltage for proper operation.
Note 8: Unless otherwise specified minimax limits apply across the -55°C to +125'C temperature range for the OS55450 series and across the
O°C to +70'C range for the 0575450 series. All typicals are given for Vce = +5V and TA = 25°C.
Note 9: All currents into device pins shown as positive, out of device pins as negative, all voltages referenced to ground unless otherwise noted. All
values shown as max or min on absolute value basis.
Note 10: Only one output at a time should be shorted.
Note 11: These parameters must be measured using pulse techniques. tw = 300l's, duty cycle < 2%.
Note 12: Applies to output transistors only.

PeripherallPower Drivers

0855461/213/4, 0875461/2/3/4 8eries Dual Peripheral Drivers
General Description

Features

The 0555461/2/3/4 series of dual peripheral drivers
are functionally interchangeable with 0555451/2/3/4
series peripheral drivers, but are designed for use in
systems that require higher breakdown voltages at the
expense of slightly slower switching speeds. Typical
applications include power drivers, logic buffers, lamp
drivers, relay' drivers, M05 drivers, line drivers and
memory drivers.

•
•
•
•
•

300 mA output current capability
High voltage outputs
No output latch-up at 30V
Medium speed switching
Circuit flexibility for varied applications and choice
of logic function
• TTL compatible diode-clamped inputs
• 5tandard supply voltages

. The 0555461/0575461, 0555462/0575462, 0555463/
0575463 and 0555464/0575464 are dual peripheral
AND, NAND, OR and NOR drivers, respectively, (positive logic) 'with the output of the logic gates internally
connected to the bases of the NPN output transistors.

After Switching

Note 1: "Absolute Maximum Ratings" are those values beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. Except for "Operating
Temperature Range" they are not meant to imply that the devices should be operated at these limits. The table of "Electrical Characteristics"
provides conditions for actual device operation.
Note 2: Voltage values are with respect to network ground terminal unless otherwise specified.
Note 3: This is the voltage between two emitters of a multiple-emitter transistor.
N~te 4: This is the maximum voltage which should be applied to any output when it is in the "OFF" state.
Note 5: Both halves of these dual circuits may conduct rated current simultaneously; however, power dissipation averaged over'a short time
interval must fall within the continuous dissipation rating.
Note 6: Unless otherwise specified minimax limits apply across the -55·C to +125°C temperatu're range for the DS55XXX series and across the
O·C to +70oC range for the DS75XXX series. All tYpicals are given for VCC ~ +5V and TA = 25°C.
Note 7: All currents into device pins shown as positive, out of device pins as negative, all voltages 'referenced to ground unless otherwise noted.
All values shown as max or min on absolute value basis.

Safe Operating Areas
for Peripheral Drivers

National Semiconductor
Application Note 213
Bill Fowler
October 1978

Peripheral Drivers is a broad definition given to Interface
Power devices. The devices generally have open-collector output transistors that can switch hundreds of
milliamps at high voltage, and are driven by standard
Digital Logic gates. They serve many appl ications such
as: Relay Drivers, Printer Hammer Drivers, Lamp
Drivers, Bus Drivers, Core Memory Drivers, Voltage
Level Transistors, and etc. Most IC devices have a
specified maximum load such as one TTL gate can
drive ten other TT L gates. Peripheral drivers have many
varied load situations depending on the application,
and requires the design engineer to interpret the limitations of the device vs its application. The major
considerations are Peak Current" Breakdown Voltage,
and Power Dissipation.

of 1 to 10 mA on a transistor curve tracer (LVCEO
is sometimes measured in an Inductive Latch-Up Test).
Observe that all breakdown voltages converge on LVCEO
'at high currents, and that destructive secondary breakdown voltage occurred (shown as dotted line) at high
currents and high voltage corresponding to exceeding
the power dissipation of the device. The characteristics
of secondary breakdown voltage vary with the length
of time the condition exists, device temperature, voltage,
and current.

OUTPUT CURRENT AND VOLTAGE
CHARACTERISTICS
Figure 1 shows the circuit of a typical peripheral driver,
the DS75451. The circuit is equivalent to a TTL Gate
driving a 300 mA output transistor. Figure 2 shows the
characteristics of the output transistor when it is ON
and when it is OFF. The output transistor is capable
of sinking more than one amp of current when it is ON,
and is specified at a VOL; 0.7V at 300 mAo The output
transistor is also specified to operate with voltages up
to 30V without breaking down, but there is more to
that as shown by the breakdown voltages labeled BVCES,
BVCER, and.LVCEO.

OUTPUT TRANSFER CHARACTERISTICS VS
INDUCTIVE AND CAPACITIVE LOADS
Figure 3 shows the switchjng transfer characteristics
superimposed on the DC characteristics of the output
transistor for an inductive load. Figure 4 shows the
switching transfer characteristics, for a capacitor load.
In both «ases in these examples, the load voltage (VB)
exceeds LVCEO. When the output transistor turns
on with an inductive load the initial current through
the load is 0 mA, and the transfer curve switches across
to the left (VoU and slowly charges the inductor.
When the output transistor turns off with an inductive
load, the initial current is IOL, whlch is sustained by
the inductor and the transistor curve switches across
to the right (VB) through a high current and high
voltage area which exceeds LVCEO and instead of
turning off (shown as dotted line) the device goes into
secondary breakdown. It is generally not a good practice
to let the output transistor's voltage exceed LVCEO
with an inductive load.

FIGURE 1. Typical Peripheral Driver DS75451
BVCES corresponds to the breakdown voltage when
the output transistor is held off by the lower output
transistor of the TTL gate, as would happen if the
power supply (VCC) was 5V. BVCER corresponds
to the breakdown voltage when the output transistor
is held off by, the 500 resistor, as would happen if the
power supply (VCC) was off (OV). LVCEO corres·
ponds to the breakdown voltage of the output transistor if it could be measured with the base open. LVCE.o
can be measured by exceeding the breakdown voltage
BVCES and measuring the v.oltage at output currents

In a similar case with a capacitive load shown in Figure 4,
the switching transfer characteristics rotate counter
clockwise through the DC characteristics, unlike the
inductive load which rotated clockwise. Even though
the switching transfer curve exceeds LVCEO, it didn't

Figure 6 shows the switching transfer characteristics
of a capacitive load which leads to secondary breakdown. This condition occurs due to high sustained currents, not breakdown voltage. In this example, the
large capacitor prevented the output transistor from
switching fast enough through the high current and
high voltage region; in turn the power dissipation of
the device was exceeded and the output transistor
went into secondary breakdown.

go into secondary breakdown. Therefore, it is an acceptable practice to let the output transistor voltage exceed
LVCEO, but not exceed BVCER with a capacitive load.

As an additional warning, beware of parasitic reactance.
If the driver's load is located some distance from the

a connecting cable) there will be additional inductive
and capacitance which may cause ringing on the driver

POWER LIMITATIONS OF PACKAGE
Figure 9 shows the equivalent circuit of a typical power

device in its application. Power is shown equivalent to
electrical current, thermal resistance is shown equivalent
to electrical resistance, the electrical reactance C and L
are eqUivalent to the capacity to store heat, and the
propagation delay through the medium. There are
two mediums of heat transfer: conduction through mass
and radiant convection. Convection is insignificant
compared with conduction and isn't shown in the
thermal resistance circuits. From the point power
is generated (device junction) there are three possible
paths to the ultimate heat sink: 1. through the device
leads; 2. through the device surface by mechanical
connection; and 3. through the device surface to ambient air. In all cases, the thermal paths are like delay
lines and have a corresponding propagation delay.
The thermal resistance is proportional to the length
divided by the cross sectional area of the material. The
Thermal Inductance is proportional to the length of the'
material (copper, molding compound, etc.) and inversely proportional to the cross sectional area. The
thermal capacity is proportional to the volume of the
material.

In conclusion, transient voltage associated with inductive loads can damage the peripheral driver, and transient currents associated with capacitive loads can
also damage the driver. In some instances the device
may not exhibit failure with the first switching cycle,
but its conditions from ON to OFF will worsen after
many cycles. In some cases the device will recover
after the power has been turned off, but its long term
reliability may have been degraded.

POWER DISSIPATION
Power Dissipation is limited by the IC Package Thermal
Reactance and the external thermal reactance of the
environment (PC board, heat sink, circulating air,
etc.). Also, the power dissipation is limited by the
maximum allowable junction temperature of the device.
There are two contributions to the power: the internal

resistance than 8 pin packages; which should be expected since it has more pins to conduct heat and has
more surface area. Something that may not be expected
is that the Thermal Resistance of the molded devices
is comparable to the ceramic devices. The reason for the
lower thermal resistance of the molded devices is the
Copper lead frame, which is a better thermal conductor
than the Kovar lead frame of the ceramic package.
Almost all the peripheral drivers made by National
Semiconductor are constructed with Copper lead frames
(refer to IPJA on the specific devices data sheet). The
difference between the thermal resistance of Copper
and Kovar in a molded package is shown in Figure 12.

Another variance in thermal resistance is the size of the
IC die. If the contact area to the lead frame is greater,
then the thermal resistance from the Die to the Lead
Frame is reduced. This is shown in Figure 13. The
thermal resistance shown in Figure 11 corresponds
to die that are 6000 mil 2 in area.

FIGURE 11. Maximum Package Power Rating

The maximum allowable junction temperature for
ceramic packages is 17SoC; operation above this temperature will reduce the reliability and life of the device
below an acceptable level. At a temperature of SOOoC
the aluminum metallization paths on the die start to
melt. The maximum allowable junction temperature
for a molded device is lS0°C, operations above this
may cause the difference in thermal expansion between
the molding compound and package lead frame to
sheer off the wire bonds from the die to the package
lead. The industry standard for a molded device is
lS0oC, but National further recommends operation
below 13SoC if the device in its application will encounter a lot of thermal cycling {such as powered
on and off over its life}.

The thermai resistance can also be improved by connecting the package to the PC board copper or by
attaching metal wings to the package. The improvement
by these means is outside the control of the IC manufacturer, but is available from the manufacture of the
heat sink device. If the IC is mounted in a socket rather
than soldered to a PC board, the thermal resistance
through the device leads will worsen. In most cases,
the thermal resistance is increased by 20%; again this is
a variable subject to the specific socket type.

CALCULATIONS OF POWER DISSIPATION

FIGURE 15_ Peak Power and Energy vs
the Period of Time the Power was Applied

Most IC devices (such as T2L) operate at power levels
well below the device package rating, but peripheral
drivers can easily be used at power levels that exceed
the package rating unknowingly, if the power dissipation isn't calculated. As an example, the 083654
Ten Bit Printer Driver could dissipate 3 watts (DC and,
even more AC), and it is onlY·in a 0.8 watt package.
In this example, the device would be destroyed in
moments, and may even burn a hole in the PC board
it is mounted on_ The 083654 data sheet indicated that
the 10 outputs could sink 300 mA with a Vol of 1 volt,
but it wasn't intended that all the outputs would be

To calculate power dissipation, the only information
available to the design engineer is the parametric limits
in the device data sheet, and the same information
about the load reactance. If the calculations indicate
the device is within its limits of power dissipation, then
using those parametric limits is. satisfactory. If the
calculation of power dissipation is marginal, the parametric limits used in the calculations might be worst
case at· low temperature instead of high temperature

due to a positive temperature coefficient (T C) of resistance. IC resistors and resistors associated with the
load generally have a positive TC. On the other hand,
diodes and transistor emitter base voltages have a negative TC; which may in some circuits negate the effect
of the resistors TC. Peripheral output transistors have
a positive TC associated with VOL; while output Darlington transistors have a negative TC at low currents
and may be flat at high currents. Figure 16 shows
an example of power dissipation vs temperature; note
that the power dissipation at the applications maximum
temperature (T A) was less than the power dissipation
at lower temperatures. Since maximum junction temperature is the concern of the calculation, then maximum ambient temperatu.re power should be used.
The junction temperature may be determined by projecting a line (shown dotted in Figure 16), with a slope
proportional to

the load will most likely exceed the device package

1 amp, settling to 200 ms, with an 8 ms time constant.
Observe the peak current is clamped at 1 amp, by the
sinking ability of the driver; othervvise the peak current
may have been 1.2 amps. The DS75451 is only rated
at 300 mA, but it is reasonable to assume it could
sink 1 amp because of the designed forced (3 required
for switching response and worst case operating temperature.

An incandescent lamp is equivalent to a reactive load.
The reactance is related to the period of time required
to heat the lamp and the filaments positive temperature
coefficient of resistance. Figure 19 shows the transient
response for a typical lamp used on instrument panels,
and the equivalent electrical model for the lamp. Much
like IC packages the lamp has a thermal circuit and
its associated propagation delay. This lamp filament
has an 8 ms time constant, and a longer 250 ms time
constant from the lamp body to ambient. The DC
characteristics are shown in Figure 20. Note the knee
in the characteristics at 2 volts; this is where power
starts to be dissipated in the form of light. This subject
is important, since more peripheral drivers are damaged
by lamps than an,y other load.

in Figure 22. Figure 22 also includes as a reference
the maximum peak energy from Figure 15. It can be
seen from Figure 22 that in this example there is a
good safety margin between the lamp load and the
reference max peak energy. If there were more drivers
than one per package under the same load, the margin
would have been reduced. Also, if the peripheral driver
couldn't saturate because it couldn't sink the peak
transient lamp current, then the energy would also
reduce the margin of safe operation.

081630/083630 Hex CM08 Compatible Buffer
General Description

Features

The OS1630/0S3630 is a high current buffer intended
for use with CMOS circuits interfacing with peripherals
requiring high drive currents. The OS1630/0S3630
features low quiescent power consumption (typically
50t/W) as well as high-speed driving of capacitive loads
such as large MOS memories. The design of the OS 1630/
OS3630 is such that V cc current spikes commonly
found in standard CMOS circuits cannot occur, thereby,
reducing the total transient and average power when
operating at high frequencies.

• High-speed capacitive driver
• Wide supply voltage range,
•

Input/output may interface to TTL

•

Input/output CMOS compatibility

• No internal transient Vee current spikes
• 50t/W typical standby power

DS7800/DS8800 Dual Voltage Level Translator
General Description

Features

The DS7800/DS8800 are dual voltage translators
designed for interfacing between conventional TTL
or LS voltage levels and those levels associated
with high impedance junction or MOS FET-type
devices. The design allows the user a wide latitude
in his selection of power supply voltages, thus providing custom control of the output swing. The
translator is especially useful in analog switching;
and since low power dissipation occurs in the "off"
state, minimum system power is required.

•

31 volt (max) output swing

•

Theory of Operation

CCI

The two input diodes perform the AND function
on. TTL input voltage levels. When at least one
input voltage is a logical "0", current from Vee
(nominally 5.0V) passes through R, and out the
input(s) which is at the low voltage'. Other than
small leakage currents, this current drawn from Vee
through the 20 kn resistor is the only source of
power dissipation in the logical "1" output state.

Since this current is relatively constant, the collec·
tor of O2 acts as a constant current source for the
output stage. Logic inversion is performed since
logical "1" input voltages cause current to be sup·
plied to O2 and to 03' And when 0 3 turns on the
output voltage drops to the logical "0" level.

°

The reason for the PNP current source, 2 , is so
that the output stage can be driven from a high
impedance. This allows voltage V2 to be adjusted
in accordance with the application. Negative volt·
ages to -25V can be applied to V2' Since the out·
put wili neither source nor sink large amounts of
current, the output voltage range is almost exclu·
sively dependent upon the values selected for V2
and V3 .

When both inputs are at logical "1" levels, current
passes through R, and diverts to transistor 0"
turning it on and thus pulling current through R2 •
Current is then supplied to the PNP transistor, 02'
The voltage losses caused by current through 0"
D3, and 02 necessitate that node P reach a voltage
sufficient to overcome these losses before current
begins to flow. To achieve this voltage at node P,
the inputs must be raised to a voltage level which
is one diode potential lower than node P. Since
these levels are exactly the same as those exper·
ienced with conventional TTL, the interfacing
with these types of circuits is achieved.

Maximum leakage current through the output tran·
sistor 0 3 is specified at 10 p.A under worst·case
voltage between V2 and V 3• This will result in a
logical "1" output voltage which is 0.2V below V3.
Likewise the clamping action of diodes D4 , Ds, and
D6 , prevents the logical "0" output voltage from
falling lower than 2V above V2, thus establishing
the output voltage swing at typically 2 volts less
than the voltage separation between V2 and V3.

Transistor O 2 provides "constant current switch·
ing" to the output due to the common base con·
nection of 02' When at least one input is at the
logical "0" level, no current is delivered to 02; so
that its collector supplies essentially zero current
to the output stage. But when both inputs are raised
to a logical "1" level current is supplied to 02'

Selecting Power Supply Voltage
The graph shows the boundary conditions which
must be used for proper operation of the unit. The
range of operation for power supply V2 is shown
on the X axis. It must be between -25V and -avo
The allowable range for power supply V3 is gov·
erned by supply V 2. With a value chosen for V2, V 3
may be selected as any value along a vertical line
passing through the V2 value and terminated by
the boundaries of the operating region. A voltage
difference between power supplies of at least 5V
should be maintained for adequate signal swing.

General Description
These Series 54/74 compatible gates are high output voltage versions of the DM5401/DM7401

may be "pulled-up" to +14 volts in the logical "1"
state thus providing guaranteed interface between
TTL and MOS logic levels.

In addition the devices may be used in applications
where it is desirable to drive low current relays or
lamps that require up to 14 volts.

DP8350 Series CRT Controllers
General Description
The DP8350 Series of CRT Controllers are single-chlp
bipolar (12L technology) circuits In a 4O-pln package. They'
are designed to be dedicated CRT display refresh circuits. Three standard products are available, designated
DP8350, DP8352, DP8353. Custom devices, however, are
available In a broad range of mask programmable options.
The CRT Controller (CRTC) provides an Internal dot rate
crystal controlled oscillator for ease of system design.
For systems where a dot rate clock Is already provided,
an external clock may be Inputted to the CRTC. In either
case system synchronization Is made possible with the
use of the ~uffered Dot Rate Clock Output.
The DP8350 Series has 11 character generation related
timing outputs. These outputs are compatible for systems with or without line buffers, using character ROMs,
or DM86S64-type latch/ROM/shift register circuits.
12 bits (4k) of bidirectional TRI-STATEG' character memory addresses are provided by the CRTC for direct Interface to character memory.
Three on-chlp registers provide for external loading of the
row starting address, cursor address, and top-of-page
address.
A complete set of video outputs Is available Including
cursor enable, vertical blanking, horizontal sync, and
vertical sync.
The DP8350 Series CRTC provides for a wide range of
programmablility using internal mask programmable
.
ROMs:
TRI-8TATE Is a registered trademark of National Semiconductor Corp.

• Character Field (both number of dots/character and
number of scan lines/character),
• Characters per Row
• Character Rows per Video Frame
• Format of Video Outputs
The CRTC also provides system sync and program inputs
Including Refresh Control, Reset, and Address Mode.

into cell groupings that define video rows. These cells
are accessed by a specific horizontal address output
(4096 maximum) and are resolved by a row scan-linecounter output' (16 maximum) as shown in Figure 2. The
relation of the video portion of a frame to the horizontal
blanking and vertical blanking intervals is shown in
Figure 3 in a two-dimensional format.

Discussion of the CRT Controller necessitates an understanding of the video display as presented by a raster
scan monitor. The resolution of the data displayed on the
monitor screen Is a function of the dot size. As shown In
Figure 1, the dot size is determined by the frequency of
the system dot clock. The visible size of the dot can be
modified to less than 100% by external gating of the
serial video data. The CRT Controller organizes the dots

of video characters per row. For custom requirements,
the duty cycle of this output Is mask programmable.

The CRT controller provides 11 Interface timing outputs
for line buffers, character generator ROMs, DM86S64type latch/ROM/shift register combination character
generators, and system status timing. All outputs are
buffered to provide TTL compatible direct interface to
popular system circuits such as:

Line Buffer Recirculate Enable: This output is provided
to control the input loading mode of the data shift regis'
ter (line buffer) when used in a system design. The format
of this output is Intended for shift registers that load ex·
ternal data into the input with the mode control in the
low state, and load output data into the input (recircu·
late) with the mode control in the high state. This output
will transition to the low state, synchronous with the line
rate clock falling edge, for one complete scan line of each
row. The pOSition of this scan line will either be the first
scan line of the addressed row, or the last scan line of
the previous row depending upon the logic level of the
address mode input (pin 11), tabulated in Table 3.

• DM86S64 Series Character Generators
• MM52116 Series Character ROMs
• DM74166 Dot Shift Register
• MM5034, MM5035 Octal 80·Blt Shift Registers (Line
Buffers)
Dot Rate Clock: This output is provided for use in
system synchronization and interface to the dot shift
register used in character generation. This output is
non·inverting with respect to an external clock applied
to the X1 oscillator input (see Figure 6). The dot rate
clock output exhibits a 50% duty cycle. All CRTC output
logic transitions are synchronous with the rising edge of
the Dot Rate Clock output.

Memory Address Outputs/Inputs and Registers
Address Outputs (Ao-A11 ): These 12 address bits (4k)
_ are bi-directional TRI-STATE@ outputs that directly inter·
face to the system RAM memory address bus.

Latch Character Generator Address (Character Rate
Clock): This output provides an active clock pulse at
character rate frequency which is active at all times.
The rising edge of this pulse is synchronous with the
beginning of each character cell. This output is in·
tended for direct interface to character/video genera·
tion data latch registers.

In the output mode (enabled), these outputs will exhibit
a specific 12·bit address for each video character cell to
be displayed on the CRT screen. This 12-bit address
increments sequentially at character rate frequency
and is valid at the address bus 2 character times prior to
the addressed character appearing as video on the CRT
screen. This plpelining by 2 characters is provided to
allow sufficient time for first, accessing the RAM memory, and second, accessing the character generation
memory with the RAM memory data. Since a character
cell is comprised of several scan lines of the CRT beam,
the sequential address output string for a given video
'row is identically repeated for each scan line within the
row. The starting address for each video scan line is
stored within an internal 12-bit register called the Row
Start Register. At the beginning of each video scan line,
the internal address counter logic is' preset with the
contents of the Row Start Register (see Figure 4). To
accomplish row by row sequential addreSSing, internal
logic updates the Row Start Register at the beginning of
the first scan line of a video row with the last address + 1
of the last scan line of the previous video row. Since the
number of address locations on the video screen display
is typically much less than the 4k dimension of the 12·bit
address bus, an internal 12-bit register called the Top Of
Page Register, contains the starting address of the first
video row. Internal logic loads the contents of this top
of page register into the Row Start Register at the beginning of the first scan line of the first video row. The Top
Of Page Register is loaded with address zero whenever
the Reset input is pulsed to the logic "0" state.

Line Rate Clock: This output provides an active clock
pulse at scan·line rate frequency (horizontal frequency),
which is active at all times. The falling edge of this pulse
is synchronous with the beginning of horizontal blanking~
This output is intended for direct interface to character
generation scan line counters.
Load Video Shift Register: This output provides a char·
acter rate signal intended for direct interface to the video
dot shift register used in character generation. Active low
pulses are outputted only during video time. As a result
of the inactive time, horizontal and vertical video blank·
ing can be derived from this output signal.
Clear Line Counter: This output signal is active only
during the first scan line of all rows. It exhibits an active
low pulse identical and synchronous to the Line Rate
Clock and is provided for direct interface to character
generation scan line counters.
Line Counter Outputs (LC o to LC 3): These outputs clock
at line rate frequency, synchronous with the failing edge
of the line rate clock, and provide a consecutive binary
count for each scan line within a row. These outputs are
provided for system deSigns that require decoded information indicating the present scan line pOSition within a
row. These outputs are always active, however, the next
to the last row during vertical blanking will exhibit an invalid line count as a function of internal frame synchronization.

In the input mode (disabled), external addresses can be
loaded into the internal 12·bit registers by external control of the register select A, register select B, and register
load inputs (see Table 1). As a result of specific external
loading of the contents of the Row Start Register, Top
Of Page Register, and the Cursor Register, row by row
page scrolling, non-sequential row control, and cursor
location control, can easily be accomplished.

Line Buffer Clock: This output directly interfaces to data
shift registers when they are incorporated as line buffers
in a system design (see Figure 16). This signal is active at
character rate frequency and is intended for shift regis·
ters that shift on a falling edge clock. This output is inac·
tive during all horizontal blanking intervals yielding the
number of active clocks per scan iine equal to the nUl)1ber
5·9

During the non-video intervals, the address output operation Is modified. During all horizontal blanking intervals,
the incrementing of the address counter Is inhibited and
the address count is held constant at the last video ad'
dress + 1. For example, if a video row has an 80 character
cell format and addressing for the video portion of a
given scan line starts at address 1, the address counter
will increment up through address 81. Address 81 is
held constant during the horizontal blanking interval
until 3 character times before the next video scan line.
At this pOint, the address counter is internally loaded
with the contents of the Row Start Register which may
contain' address 1 or 81 as a function of internal control,
or a new address that was loaded from the external bus.
During vertical blanking, however, this loading of the
internal address counter with the contents of the Row
Start Register is inhibited providing scan line by scan
line sequential address incrementing. This allows mini·
mum access time to the CRTC when the address counter
outputs are being used for dynamic RAM'refresh.

The Row-Start Register (RSR) holds the starting address
for each scan, line of the video portion of a frame. The
video addreSSing format is completely determined by the
contents of this register. With no external loading, the
RSR is automatically loaded by internal control such
that row-by-row sequential addreSSing is achieved. Referring to Figure 4, the RSR is loaded automatically once
for each video row during the first addressed scan line.
The source of the loa,ded address is internally controlled
, such that the RSR load for the first video row comes from
the Top-at-Page Register. The RSR load for all subsequent video rows comes from the address counter which
holds the last displayed address + 1. If nOh-sequential
row formatting is desired, the RSR can be loaded externally with a 12-bit address. However, this external load
must be made prior to the internal automatic load. Generally speaking, the external load to the RSR should be
made during the video domain of the last addressed scan
line of the previous row. Figure 4 indicates the internal
automatic loading intervals which must be avoided, if the
load must be made during the horizontal blanking inter·
val. Once an external address has been loaded to the
RSR, the next occurring internal automatic RSR load will
be inhibited by internal detection logic. If an external
load is made to the RSR during the vertical blanking
interval, the 12-bit address is loaded into the Top-OfPage Register instead 'of the RSR as a, result of internal
control. This internal function 'is performed due to the
fact that the address loaded into the RSR for the first
video row can only come from the Top-Of-Page Register.

RAM Address Enable Input: At all times the status of
the bi-dlrectional address outputs is controlled exter·
nally by the logiC level of the enable input. A 'low' logic
level at this input places the address outputs in the TRISTATE® (disabled) input mode. A 'high' logic level at
this input places the address outputs in the active (enabled) output mode.,'
Register Loaci/Select Inputs: When the Register Load
input is pulsed to the logic 'low' state, the Top Of Page,
Row Start, or Cursor Register will be loaded wit!'J a 12-bit
address which originates from either the internal address
counter or the external address bus (refer to discussion
on register loading constraints). The destination register
is selected prior to the load pulse by setting the register
select inputs to the appropriate state as defined in
Table 1.

The Top·Ot·Page register (TOPR) holds the address of the
first character of the first video row. As a function of
internal control t~e contents of this register are loaded
into the RSR at the beginning of the first addressed
scan line of the first video row (see Figure 4). This
loading operation is strictly a function of internal
control and cannot be overridden by an external load to
the RSR. For this reason, any external load to the RSR
during the vertical blanking interval is interpreted
internally as a TOPR load. When the Reset input is
pulsed to the logic "0" state, the TOPR register is
loaded with address zero by internal control_ This yields
a video page display with the first row of sequential
addressing beginning at zero. Page scrolling can be
accomplished by externally loading a new address into
the TOPR. This loading operation can be performed at
any time during the frame prior to the interval where the
TOPR is loaded automatically into the RSR (see Figure
4). Once the TOPR has been loaded, it does not have to
be accessed again until the contents are to be modified,

"During the vertical blanking interval, a load to this register is internally routed to the Top-OI·Page register.

The Cursor Register (CR) holds the present address of
the cursor ,location. A true comparison of the address
counter outputs ~nd the contents of the ,CR results in a
Cursor Enable output Signal delayed by two character
times. When the Reset input is pulsed to the logic "0"
state, the contents of the CR are set to address zero by
internal control. Modifying the contents of the CR is
accomplished by external loading at ,aflY time during
this frame. Typically, loading is performed only during.
intervals when the address outputs are not actively,
controlling the video display. Once the CR has been
loaded, it does not have to be accessed again until the
contents are to be modified.

Internal Registers and Loading Constraints: There are 3
internal 12-bit registers that facilitate video screen
management with respect to row-by-row page scrolling,
non-sequential row control and cursor location. These
registers can be loaded with addresses from the external address bus while the address outputs are disabled
(RAM address enable inut in the low state), by controlling the register select and load inputs within the constraints of each register.

Video-Related Outputs
Horizontal Sync: This output provides the necessary
scan line rate sync signal for direct interface to either
three-terminal or compOSite sync monitors. The pulse
width, position, and logic polarity are mask programmable, in character time increments, for custom requirements. This output may also be mask programmed to
have RS-170 compatible serration pulses during thevertical sync interval (refer to DP8352 format and Figure 15)_

is delayed by 2 character times so that it will be coincident with the video information resulting from the corresponding address. Mask programmability allows the
cursor enable output signal to be formatted such that a
signal will be outputted for all addressed scan lines of a
video character cell or any single scan line of that cell.
The cursor enable output signal is inhibited during the
horizontal and vertical blanking intervals so that video
blanking is maintained. When the addressing is advanced by setting the address mode input (pin 11) in the
logic "0" state, the cursor enable signal will also be
shifted with respect to the scan line count. Specifically,
for a character cell with the cursor output active on all
addressed scan lines of the cell, the first scan line of
the cursor Signal will occur at the last scan line count of
the previous video row, and the last scan line count of
the addressed character cell will have no cursor output
signal. This mode of operation gives rise to a unique
situation for the first video row where the first addressed
scan line of a character cell has no cursor output signal
Since its advanced scan line pOSition is inhibited by the
vertical blanking interval.

Vertical Sync: This output provides the necessary frame
rate sync Signal for direct interface to either three-terminal
or composite sync monitors. The pulse width, position,
and logic polarity are mask programmable, in scan line
increments, for custom requirements.
Cursor Enable: This output provides a signal that is intended to be combined with the video signal to display a
cursor attribute which serves as a visual pointer for video
RAM location. Internally, the 12-bit address count is
continuously being compared with the 12-bit address
stored in the Cursor Register. When a true compare is
detected, an active high level signal will be present at
the Cursor Enable output, delayed by 2 character times
after the corresponding address bus output. The signal

Refresh Control Input: This Input provides a logic level

will select either a 60 Hz or 50 Hz refresh rate to provide
geographical marketing flexibility. However, mask pro·
grammability provides the capability of a wide range of
frequencies for custom requirements. For definition of
the input logic truth table and the refresh rate format,
refer to Table 2 and the standard device type format
tables.

Full/Half Row Control: This control input is provided
for applications that require the option of half-page ad·
dressing. As an example, if the normal video page format
is 80 characters/row by 24 rows, setting this input to the
logic "0" state will cause the video format to become
evenly spaced at 80 characters/row by 12 rows. Specifically, when this input is in the logic "0" state, row addressing is repeated for every other row. This yields successive groups of two rows of identical addressing. The
second row of addressing, however, has the Load Video
Shift Register output and the Cursor Enable output internally inhibited to provide the necessary video blanking.
Setting this input to the logic "1" state yields normal
frame addressing.

Vertical Blanking Output: This output provides a signal
that transitions at the end of the last video scan line of
the last video row and indicates the beginning of the
vertical blanking interval. This signal transitions back to
the inactive state during the row of scan lines just prior
to the first video row. The transition position within this
last row of vertical blanking, as well as the active logic
polarity, is a function of the particular deVice format
(item 21 of the format tables) or is mask programmable
for custom requirements.
Address Mode: When a system utilizes a line buffer shift
register, the first scan line of addressing for a row is used
to load the shift register. As a result of this loading
operation, addressing for a particular row will not begin
accessing the video RAM until the second scan lirie of
addressing for the row. It also follows that the first scan
line of a row can only exhibit addressed data for the pre·
vious video row that is in the shift register. This offset in
addressing becomes a problem for character generation
designs that output video on the first scan line of a row
(with respect to the line counter outputs). The result is
invalid data being displayed for the first scan line. One
solution would be to utilize a character generation de·
Sign that began outputting video on the second scan line
of a row. However, since most single chip character
generators begin video on the first scan line, the DP8350
series CRT controller provides a pin selectable advanced
addressing mode which will compensate for addressing
shifts resulting from shift register loading. Referring to
Table 3, ahigh logic level at this input will cause address·
ing to be coincident with the scan line counter positions
of a row, and a low logic level at this input will cause
addressing to start on the last scan line counter position
of the previous row. This shifted alignment of the ad·
dressing, with respect to the designated scan lines of a
row, is diagrammed in Figure 5. Characteristically, it fallows that, when addressing is advanced by one scan line,
the Line Buffer Recirculate Enable output and the Cursor
Enable output are'also advanced by one scan line. This
advanced position of the Cursor Enable output may
deserve special consideration depending upon the system design.

External Character/Line Rate Clock: This input is intended to aid testing of the CRTC and is not meant to be
used as an 'active input in a CRT system. When this
input is left open, it is guaranteed not to interfere with
normal operation.
Reset Input: This input is provided for power-up synchronization. When brought to the logic "0" state, device
operation is halted. Internal logic is set at the beginning
of vertical blanking, and the Top-Of-Page Register and
the Cursor Register are loaded with address zero. When
this input· returns to the logic "1" state, device operation
resumes at the vertical blanking interval followed by
video addressing which begins at zero. This input has
hysteresis and may be connected through a resistor to
Vee and through a capacitor to ground to accomplish a
power-up Reset. The logic "0" state should be maintained for a minimum .of 250ns.

Note 1: "Absolute Maximum Ratings" are those values beyond which the safety of thedevice cannot be guaranteed. They are not
meant to imply that the device should be operated at these limits. The table of "Electrical Characteristics" provides conditions for
actual device operation.
Note 2: Unless otherwise specified, min./max. limits apply across the O'C to +70'C t.emperaiure range and the 4.7SV to 5.2SV power
supply range. All typical values are for TA = 25'C and Vee = S.OV and are intended for reference only.
Note 3: All currents into device pins are shown as positive; all currents out of device pins are shown as negative; all voltages are refer·
enced to ground, unless otherwise specified. All values shown as max. or min. are so classified on absolute value basis.
Note 4: Only one output at a time should be shorted.
Note 5: Electrical specifications do not apply to pin 17, external charlline clock, as this pin is used for production testing only.
Note 6: Functional operation of device is not guaranteed when operated beyond specified operating condition limits.

Note 1: One full row before start of video the line counter is .set to zero state - this provides line counter synchronization in cases
where the number of lines in vertical blanking are not even multiples of the number of lines per row.
Note 2: The position of the line buffer recirculate enable logic low level is a function of the logic level of the address mode input (see
Table 3).
Note 3: The stop point of the vertical blanking output active signal is a function of device type or custom option, and will always be
within one row prior to video.
Note 4: The transition start and stop points of the vertical sync output signal are a function of device type or custom option.

Note 1: The vertical sync transition point is always coincident with the beginning of horizontal blanking.
Note 2: T1 and T2 intervals represent the range of alignment offset between the vertical sync pulse and the serration pulse envelope
and is a function of the horizontal sync position with respect to the beginning of horizontal blanking .

Note 1: The horizontal sync output start and stop point positions are a function of device type or custom option.
Note 2: The position of the recirculate enable output logic "0" level is dependent on the state of the address mode input. When address
mode = "0", recirculate enable occurs on the max. line of a character row (solid line) and the address counter outputs roll over to the new
row address at point A. When address mode = "1", recirculate enable occurs on the first line of a character row (dashed line) and the
address counter outputs roll over to the new row address at point B.
Note 3: The address counter outputs clock to the address of the last character of a video row plus 1. This address is then held during
the horizontal blanking interval until video minus three character times. At this point the outputs are modified to the contents of the
Row Start Register (RSR).

A Low Component Count
Video Data Terminal Using
the DP8350 CRT Controller
and the INSS080 CPU

National Semiconductor
Application Note 1.99
AI Brilliott
August 1978

INTRODUCTION

the CPU and the CRTC eliminates the need for line
buffers.

The DP8350 is an 12L - LS technology integrated
circuit, designed to provide all control signals for a
cathode ray tube (CRT) display system. This application
note explains a system using the DP8350 and the
INS8080 microprocessor. The design philosophy shows
how the DP8350 interfaces to the INS8080, completing
the function of a video data terminal with a minimum
component count. After reading and understanding this
application note the reader will realize the ease and
flexibility of designing video terminals with the DP8350*.
To thoroughly understand this application note the
reader must be familiar with the DP8350 and the
INS8080 microprocessor.

THE CHARACTER GENERATOR
The character generator consists of 3 elements: an
address latch to hold the input address to the character
ROM allowing for the access time of the ROM; the
character ROM that stores the ASCII character in a form
for parallel to serial conversion by the shift register;
the shift register converts the character ROMs parallel
output to serial form. The serial output from the shift
register is the true video output, modulating the video
monitors electron beam which writes characters on the
screen. All of the 3 elements of the character generator
are combined in the DM8678, (Figure 3). The DP8350
CRTC provides all the control signals for the DM8678.

The video data terminal described is divided into the
,following sections, (Figure 1).

THE COMMUNICATION ELEMENT

The DP8350 CRT controller (CRTC).

The INS8250 is the asynchronous communication
element (ACE) for the data terminal. The ACE allows
the CPU portion of the data terminal communication
with peripherals or host computers at the correct baud
rate, (Figure 1). The ACE is programmed by the CPU to
send and receive serial data at the standard baud rates
from 110 to 4800 baud. The ACE, in conjunction with
the DS1488 and DS1489 line drivers and receivers, also
provides full RS232G synchronous communication if
higher baud rates are desired. System communication
speed must always be considered to insure the baud rate
does not exceed the time required for the CPU to
process a data byte. Asynchronous communication
at baud rates higher than 4800 are possible by adding
a line buffer.

The 8080 pP system which includes ROM, RAM,
interrupt instruction port, oscillator, and control
support chips.
The character generator.
The communication element.
The keyboard and baud rate select ports.
THE CRTC
The DP8350 generates all the required control and
timing signals for displaying video. information on the
video monitor. Here is a summary of the controller's
functions:

SYSTEM INITIALIZATION

Dot clock, control, and counter outputs for the
character generator.

Application of the terminal's power supply resets the
microprocessor, the communication element, and the
CRT controller. Resetting the ACE is necessary to clear
the interrupt. Resetting the GRTG is not absolutely
necessary since the microprocessor loads the cursor and
top of page registers in the initialization routine.

Bidirectional RAM address refresh counter' for
refreshing the video RAM and allowing microproces·
sor loading to the internal DP8350 registers.
Direct drive horizontal and vertical sync signal
outputs.

Following the reset all interrupts are disabled to avoid
unwanted interrupts from the CRTC, ACE, or I/O ports.
Refer to the initialization routine in the flowchart.

Direct cursor address location output. The cursor is
internally delayed or pipelined, allowing for the
access time of video RAM and the character generator
ROM, (Figure 1).

The stack pointer is loaded to the bottom of scratch pad
RAM (3FFFH) for use as the register save poin'ter,
(Figure 4).

THE CPU

The entire RAM is written with ASCII spaces generating
a cleared screen. After completion of the screen clear
loop the CPU writes OOOH to the cursor and the top of
page registers in the DP8350 CRTC. The routine homes
the cursor to the upper left corner of the screen. The
top of page register was loaded with OOOH, therefore,
the video RAM is refreshed by the CRTC from that
starting address to the last address on the screen of video
RAM (1920 characters).

The microprocessor provides CRTC, operator, and ex·
ternal machine control for the system. When the CRT
controller is not actively refreShing the video RAM,
(i.e., during vertical retrace or blank scan lines), the
microprocessor is enabled for system housekeeping,
(Figure 2). This method of multiplexing the RAM with
*The DP8350 is equivalent to the I NS8276

faster and easier from a hardware/software standpoint.
Exchanging one row with another row is fast since
it is not necessary to rewrite the video RAM. Row
swapping is useful for higher end terminals requiring
row editing functions.

The CPU is ready to perform the communication element
(ACE) load routine. First, the baud rate divisor for the
ACE must be determined. The baud rate select switch
is read providing a code which corresponds to the ap'
propriate 16-bit divisor for the ACE. This divisor
determines the baud rate at which the ACE will communicate. Any additional programming requirements
needed for the ACE to communicate with host computer
systems could also be done at this time. The software in
this system does not contain any additional programming
for the ACE. There are many programming modes
related to the ACE. Details of these modes are beyond
the scope of this application note.

The row start look-up table, (Figure 5J, is loaded up by a
simple algorithm that loads and adds the data for
referencing a row number to that row's starting address.
The reference table, (Figure 6J, is initialized next by
direct loading. This table provides the CPU with top of
page,.bottom of page, next row load, cursor row, and
scratch row numbers for system housekeeping.

Finally, the new row start and vertical interrupt latches
are cleared, (Figure 7J. The register pointers are loaded
and the CPU is forced in a wait loop with interrupts
enabled.
NON-SEQUENTIAL ADDRESSING
The data terminal described here was designed for
non-sequential starting row addressing. In many sy.stems
sequential row addressing is used. If a character row
consists of 10 scan lines the RAM is addressed 10
repetitive times from OOOH through 04FH, (Figure 2J.
The next row ·is refreshed in the same manner from
050H to 09FH. The starting row address is sequential
OOOH, 050H, OAOH-EBOH for row numbers OH, 1 H,
2H,-2FH, respectively. Non-sequential row addressing
would be equivalent to 050H, OOOH, OAOH-EBOH for
row numbers' 1 H, OH,-2FH, respectively, (Figure 4J.
In conjunction with the CPU, non-sequential row
addressing is quite easily accomplished with the DP8350
since this is one of the features designed into the part.
Accomplishing this task basically requires the following
sequence of events. Assume the CRTC has finished
writing a video row in the middle of the monitor's
screen. This system has a 5 x 7 character font in a 7 x 10
field, (Figure 2J. At the completion of the last video
scan line 7 the CRTC line counters continue to count
the last 3 lines. Video is not present since the character
is only 7 scan lines high. The blank scan lines are 7, 8,
and 9 permitting the CRTC address outputs to be
TRI-STATED®, allowing the CPU to run. When the line
counter outputs increment to scan line 8 an interrupt
signals the CPU. The interrupt occurring is the new row
start interrupt. The interrupt routine fetches the next
CRTC row number from the reference table (Figure 6J.
This number is converted to the new starting row
address, explained later, and loaded to the CRTC row
start register. The CPU finishes the routine by clearing
the interrupt, readying itself for the next new row start
interrupt. The entire routine takes 1 scan line of time,
approximately 64 p.s. The CRTC continues to scan
the video RAM from that ,new starting address on
for the next 7 repetitive scan lines of the next row.
Many advantages become apparent using the nonsequential addressing scheme. Scrolling up or down
with the cursor always on the screen may be done

Graphics Using the DP8350
Series of CRT Controllers

National Semiconductor
Application Note 212
Charles Carinalli
December 1978

The DPB350 CRT Controller series is a versatile building
block for both low and high-end CRT terminal applications. This appl ication note demonstrates how the
DPB350 may be used in CRT graphics applications.
Although this presentation is general, when specific
examples are given the DPB350 ROM programmed
version of the DPB350 series will be used (BO characters
per row, 24 character rows, 5 x 7 character, 7 x 10
character field size!.

Both of these graphics display generation techniques will.
be discussed here, with demonstrations of how the
DPB350 series may be used to reduce total component
count.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION

In this graphics system (Figure 4) the character generator
block contains a ROM that has been programmed with·
graphic symbols whose size is contained within the
character cell size. This ROM may at the same time
contain alphanumeric characters that do not use the
full character cell size.

CHARACTER GENERATOR GRAPHICS

The basic function of the DPB350 CRT controller is to
control the elements of the "video loop" (Figure 1). A
memory address generated by the CRT controller is
presented to the CRT memory, which stores a record of
what appears on the CRT display. The character generator converts this stored information into serial video
data to the CRT monitor. The intensity of the CRT
electron beam is modulated by this video data and its
position is controlled by the horizontal and vertical sync
pulses generated by the CRT controller.

The block representation and operation of th is system is
the same as the alphanumeric's system previously de·
scribed. The CRT memory presents the same character
cell data to the character generator on every scan line of
that character cell address. The character generator ROM
is organized with addresses defining a particular symbol
and addresses defining which scan line of a character row
the CRT electron beam is currently on; thus defining
the video data for that scan line of the symbol. The
scan line address data comes directly from the DPB350.
The parallel data that results is video datil for that screen
address cell width. This data is then serially shifted to the
CRT monitor with 11 parallel to serial shift register.

The CRT screen video area is divided into character cells
(Figure 2). Each cell has a unique CRT memory address ..
The DPB350 must present the correct cha racter cell
address to the CRT memory at the appropriate CRT
beam location. Use of the line counter outputs of the
DPB350 make possible the subdivision of each 'character cell address into the unique scan line of the 'present
CRT beam location.

This'system allows every scan line of a character row to
have active video information; thus the graphics symbol
may be programmed to all sides of the cha racter cell
providing continuity from cell to cell both horizontally
and vertically. At the same time, the alphanumeric's
character may be programmed with cell to cell spacing.

For the DPB350 and its unique internal ROM program
format, each character cell is composed of 70 dots (7
dots wide and 10 dots high) Figure 3. When using the
DPB350, each of these dots may be active video data,
Typically however, in alphanumeric display systems, the
character generator will provide cell to cell character
spacing on the CRT screen by blanking some number of
rows and columns of dots. That is why the DPB350's
7 x 10 dot field is used with a 5 i< 7 character generator
(2 horizontal and 3 vertical dot spaces).

Character generator graphics is the simplest most costeffective approach to CRT graphics. It requires a minimum of software development and hardware support.
The DPB350 CRT controller provides all the required
timing and control pulses for the CRT memory, character
generator, and CRT monitor.

In fact, it is the character generator that restricts the use
of the full character cell dot field, not the DPB350!
Using a character generator which allows video on every
scan line and all dots of the cell width, makes graphic
capability possible. This type of graphic display generation is called "character generator graphics."

Graphics capability with this system, however, is somewhat limited since individual dot control is not possible;
only character cell symbol control is available. This
system does apply well in such applications as bar
graphs, circuit schematics, or flow charts and when
these need to be combined with alphanumeric data.

All of the dots on the CRT display may also be independently controlled by a separate CRT memory address
location; this is called "memory mapped graphics."

a system will be greater-both software and hardware.
In any case, the DP8350 easily adapts to such a system
as demonstrated in Figure 6.

Modification of the character generator graphics block
diagram is possible with the addition of a recirculating
line buffer placed between the CRT memory and the
character generator (Figure 5). In this case the character
generator addresses for a character row are loaded
serially into this shift register on the scan line before the
first video scan line of a character row. These addresses
are then recirculated for the number of scan lines per
character row minus one (then the next character row of,
addresses is loaded). This system 'allows access to the
CRT memory by tlie system controller on all but one
scan line of a video character row. In contrast, the
system previously described would have allowed access
only during blanking intervals. In systems that require
heavy access to the CRT memory to update screen
information, this approach is very attractive. '

In this approach, if you subdivide each character cell
such that each scan line of the cell may be independently
addressed, then from, the CRT memory block instead of
8 bits of data defining a character cell code to the
character generator, you get 8 bits of direct video data.
Then the CRT memory block serves double duty-CRT
memory storage and symbol or character generator. All
that is left to do is convert this parallel video data to
serial video data as before.
In the case of the DP8350 internal ROM format program,
each cell is 7 dots wide; thus only 7 bits of video data
are needed per character cell/scan line address. The
DP8350 addresses the memory block as before with the
character cell address, but in this case also with the scan
line address. In this manner, the DP8350 series has a
maximum address capability of 16 bits (64k).

In this case, as before, all the required control pulses for
the "video lopp" are provided by the DP8350 CRT
controller.

VARIATIONS

MEMORY MAPPED GRAPHICS

If memory mapped graphics is desirable but standard
alphanumerics is also required, combination of these
techniques is' possible. For example, if only a small
portion of the CRT screen need be memory mapped and
the remainder can be character generator alphanumerics
and/or graphic symbols. In this case a higher order data
bit from CRT memory defines whether the lower order
data bits are graphics video data or ASCII and graphics
symbol code. Figure 7 is a block diagram of such a
system.

If a very high resolution graphics display is required,
every dot of the ,CRT display may be independently
'controlled, In this case, every dot of the CRT screen
may be mapped to a specific CRT memory data bit-thus
the mime Memory, Mapped Graphics. This type of
system is obviously a more costly type of graphics, since
to control every dot not only is there a need for more
CRT memory, but the microprocessor overhead in such

SUMMARY
This application note has demonstrated 2 basic graphics
techniques that may be implemented using the OP8350
CRT controller. Variations to these techniques are
possible such as changing character cell sizes and sub·
dividing the character cell into dot blocks. In most cases,
these variations are done to decrease hardware or soft·
ware overhead. Since the DP8350 series of CRT con·
trollers offer display format flexibility through internal
ROM program variations-the device adapts equally well

to the~e graphics variations as it does to the standard
applications.

The fact that all the required control functions for the
. "video loop" are contained within the same chip-the
OP8350-makes it very effective in these types of appli·
cations; as a result it will produce the minimum chip
count and cost.

Limited Graphics Terminal
To be able to generate any graphics symbol, a character
RAM must ·replace the fixed ROM characters. Charac·
ters or symbols can be loaded into the RAM as required
from a. ROM or a pre·programmed EPROM like the
MM2716 (refer to Figure 3). But now, new graphics
characters can be written into the RAM from the Micro·
processor. These can either be derived internally from
the !,P or obtained directly from peripherals (such as
serially to an Asynchronous Communications Element
like the INS8250, or parallel from an external I/O port).

This limited graphics application thus requires two
RAMs, the Refresh RAM (or Character Position RAM),
and the Character RAM. The Refresh RAM outputs the
selected character address, and the 8350 line counter
outputs select the line in the Character RAM. The 7 dots
outputted from this RAM are latched into the Octal Latch
and held for one dot cycle. The 8th bit of data can be
used as an attribute control bit. The 7 LSBs are then
loaded into the 7·bit shift register.

2) Paralleled 8·Bit I/O Port, highest priority if CRTC card
is part of a master system, otherwise masked off

In the simple CRT applications, the microprocessor is
used mainly to re·write the Refresh RAM as new infor·
mation is fed in, either from the keyboard, or from the
main computer (via ACE). The f'P can still be used in this
application for alphanumericslgraphics, but it is also
desirable if it can perform graphics computations, such
as drawing lines from the inputted coordinates.

3) Vertical

Sync from the 8350, normally highest
need to quickly change the Top of Page
for scrolling, to change the display before
frame begins

4) ACE, INS8250 -

during serial block transfers this
will take highest priority

This requires the microprocessor to be able to write 7
dot words quickly to the Display RAM. The best way to
implement this is to time multiplex the dot cycle with
the CRTC so that whenever the f'P requires access to
the Display RAM, it merely waits for its slot in the next
dot cycle, which could be up to 640ns later. The infor·
mation is either written or read after 360ns, that is a
maximum of 1f's after the memory access request,
which is fast enough. Now the f'P no' longer has to wait
for blanking to be able to operate, it continues its normal
operation and only enters the WAIT state during RAM
access. Although this is for up to 1f'S, in fact it is in
general invisible because the f'P memory access takes
at least 700 ns.

5) Keyboard - the time to press the keys is much
longer than the interrupt wait time so can be low
priority
6) AID Converter - time for conversion is 1001's so
again can be low priority

Display RAM
The system requires a RAM with 24 x 80 x 10 addresses,
each of 8 bits (representing 7 dots + 1 attribute bit), and
a cycle time of 640ns/2 or 320ns. Using static RAMs
19.2k bytes would require 40 ICs, whereas using dyna·
mic RAMs 16 ICs are necessary, totalling 32k bytes.
This leaves 13k bytes available as spare RAM.

The Microprocessor
Advantages of Dynamic RAMs

The 8080A·2 was chosen for the following reasons:

• Only 16, 16·pin packages instead of 40, 18·pin
packages

• FAST - takes 21.84MHz (2 x 8350 frequency) divided
by 9 (in the 8224), to give a clock cycle of 2.427 MHz,
I.e., 0.41f's per microcycle, or 1.6f's for a short
instruction'
• Software can be developed on STARPLEXTM or
Intellec Development Systems

• Less than $10 for 16,000 bits
Fast access and cycle times using the MM5290·2
(average cycle time is 320ns). Even faster times with
the 5V only 16k MM5295

• INS8080A·2, DP8224 and DP8238 are low cost and
available from National
.

• Standby current only 5% o·f operating current
• Less average power dissipation than for static RAMs

Associated circuitry previously
Application Note AN199

designed

in

This means average power dissipation is 30mA x 12V x
V. x V. x 16 or 1.5W for all 16 packages (only one bank
is accessed per cycle by the CRTC for half the dot cycle
time). For 40, 4k x 1 static RAMs, average power is
80mA x 50V x 40 or 16W. Note that if the MM5295 5V,
16k x 1 dynamic RAM is selected, power dissipation will
be even further reduced, with access and cycle times
about half the 3 rail version.

Note the DP8238 has advanced MEMW mode desirable so that the' microprocessor can go into the
WAIT state earlier in the write cycle.

. Interrupts
The INS8259 is ideal as as an Interrupt Controller,
because most interrupt signals in the system are
positive going, saving D·type flip·flops. It can also be
used to mask off interrupts when necessary.

Disadvantages

Refreshing of the Dynamic RAMs
With 16k dynamic RAMs all 128 rows of every RAM have
to be refreshed every 2ms maximum to maintain valid
data. It is possible to manipulate the addressing of the
CRTC address bus to the dynamic RAM multiplexed address bus, so that there is no need for a separate refresh
counter. This is because for any display row, the 8350 sequences all 80 characters, starting at line 0 and ending at
line 9. Thus we can use the 3 least significant bits of the.
line counter outputs (An, A12, A13, from lCO, LC1, lC2)
for three of the dynamic RAM row address bits, (corresponding to lines 0 to 7 of each display row), and the four
least Significant bits of the character position address
(Ao to A3) for the remaining four RAM row address bits.
See Figure 8.

available for scratch pad, display storage, and Insystem emulation of programs. Therefore each row of
this second bank of dynamic RAMs also has to be
refreshed. By using address bit A4 to select the bank, all
rows of the dynamic RAMs are therefore refreshed every
32 characters, which in fact is eight lines, or in effect
one row of the display. The worst case is when the 32
characters are split over two display rows, There is no
problem during the vertical blanking because the 8350
still outputs incrementing addresses and LCGA continues to activate the control logic. So refreshing still
continues during blanking. Thus the longest period any
RAM row goes without a refresh cycle is 65"s per
line x 10 lines per row x 2 rows 1,3ms, which is still
within the 2ms maximum at 70·C. In other words,
dynamic RAM refreshing ;s automatically performed by
the 8350 sequencing the address and no extra circuitry
is required.

=

Unfortunately, because 19k ad,dresses are required, it is
necessary to use two banks of RAM (8 RAMs in each
bank), giving a total of 32k x 8. This leaves 13k bytes

CRT Controller
A graphics/alphanumeric CRT Controller requires the
following (See Figure 9):

6) 50 Hz or 60 Hz capability - the 8350 has a frequency
select input

1) All monitor signals provided - the 8350 provides
Vert/Horiz sync and vertical banking

7) Incrementing position address, tri-state - the 8350
has this, with a maximum enable/disable time of 30 ns

2) Cursor signal - the 8350 has cursor enable

This parameter is important in this application
where it is necessary to switch the memory from the
CRTC address to the microprocessor address, and
back to the CRTC address all in one 7 dot cycle of
640ns. Other CRT controllers are not capable of
enabling and disabling the CRTC address so quickly.

3) Fast dot clock, a 7-dot cycle clock continuous, and a
shift register clock only during display - the 8350
has dot clock, LCGA and LVSR
4) Line counter output 4-bit, tri-state line counter output (but not tri-state)

the 8350 has

Hence the DP8350 requires no extra circuitry apart from
a Quad Latch to disable th,e Line Counter outputs. The
8350 has internal ROMs which determine how many rows
(24), columns (80), lines per row (10), and dots per column
(7). Versions of the 8350 are available with other combinations.

5) Ability to set top of page, row start and cursor reg at
any time - the 8350 can do this using LD REG, RA
and RB inputs during the time the "p is on the CRTC
address bus_ RA and RB can be data bus bits DBO
and DB1, and LD REG can be decoded from the
address bus

Locating the Position of a Dot
The standard DP8350 displays 80 horizontal characters
for each of 24 rows, each character field comprising 10
lines of 7 dots. Thus there are 80 x 7 or 560 horizontal
dots and 24 x 10 or 240 vertical dots in the display. Let
the value of the horizontal dot position be x, where 0" x
< 560, and y be the vertical dot position, where 0" y <
240. Refer to Figure 20.

A good aemonstration of the graphics capability is to
connect an x·y joystick to two analog inputs of the AID
converter and by selecting the program MOVD (move
dot), moving the joystick. The joystick can be moved
quickly from one extreme to another and all dots on the
way are displayed. This program can also use a dot as
the cursor, using the joystick to select its position, and
then to depress keys whenever a desired character is
required at the character position of the dot.

If the x and y values are inputted to the microprocessor,
it can then compute the character position, the line
number and the dot position number. First, the Row
Number r is INTEGER (y/10). This then has to be
multiplied by 80 to produce the ROW START number.
The Column Number then has to be added to this to
obtain the Character Position Number, where the
Column Position c is INTEGER (x/7). The line of the row
is (y - r), and the dot number is (x - c) for the computed
character position.

Dot Word Transfers
With the use of the ACE, it is possible to unload the
contents of the RAM into either an identical terminal to
copy the display, or to store it in a main computer. It can
then be recalled from the computer at a later date and
re-Ioaded into the RAM to be displayed. Or if desired,
sections of the display can be transferred. Copying
from or to the display can be fast, because 7 dots are
read or written at a time. An example of this is to use the
programs SAVE and LOAD .. A section of the display
(such as a circuit diagram) can be saved in the back·up
RAM, and then loaded back on to the display in a
different area. The diagram appears almost instantly.

For the 8080 microprocessor, multiplication and division
of numbers is laborious and time consuming. It is there·
fore easier to use the program subroutine shown in Fig·
ure 21 to compute the character position, line number,
and dot number. A separate subroutine then computes
the dot word from the dot number. This 7·dot word is
then ORed with the word already in the computed dyna·
mic RAM location. All this can be demonstrated using
the program PLOT.

This extra 13k bytes of back·up RAM can also be used
as additional memory for in system emulation of
programs, or for powerful computing capability for
graphics calculations.

This computation takes an average of 300"s and a
maximum of 500"s. Hence up to 3,000 dots can be
plotted per second for any values of x and y to.create a
graphics display.

Graphics Programs

Display Loading

To perform various graphics functions it was decided to
select the necessary software with four letter program
labels, fOllowed by a carriage return. As long as the
label derived starts at the first column of a row, the
program requested is called up and executed. Some
programs request information from the operator. PLOT
is an example of this, where the values Y1 and X1 are reo
quested by the display. The user types in the desired
values in normal decimal, signifying the end of the number with a carriage return. After both y and x have been
entered, the program continues, in this case plotting a
dot at Y1, X1.

The starting address is first entered (anywhere from
8000 H to FDFFH) by keying in the first two hex numbers
when requested by B = (byte), no carriage return, then
the last two hex numbers. This is repeated for the end
address. The bytes are then entered 2 ASCII characters
at a time. If the addresses are between 8000H and
CFFFH, the words will appear on the display. For
example, 7F will appear as 7 dots, or 83 will appears as
the 2 right-hand dots with attribute. In this way a picture
can be loaded on to the display.

Use of Back-up RAM
If the DMPI addresses are between DOOOH and FDFFH.
the information is stored in the back-up RAM. This is
useful for in-system emulation, for example. By calling
up the program EXTO (External 0), if a program has
previously been loaded in the back-up RAM, starting at
address DOOOH, this program will then be executed after
EXTO, carriage return. Another use of this section of
RAM is the storage of different sequences of circuit
diagrams other than those in the symbol EPROM. The
program DRAW can then call up the starting address.

Conversion of Entered Decimal Numbers
The' conversion of the decimal numbers entered and
saved in the Input Number registers, is performed by the
subroutine ENTR. First the last decimal number entered
(obviously units) is tested for ASCII number units and
then saved. The second number (tens) if entered, is then
tested and decremented until 0 is reached, and each
decrement, 10 is added to the total number. Then the
third number (hundreds) is tested and decremented to 0,
each time 100 is added to the total. At the end of the
conversion, H, L register contains the total number in
binary, This is then saved in the respective register.

Additional Software
The power and versatility of this system is easily
demonstrated with the existing software. This can be
added to as required with new software, calling up
existing subroutines where possible. Up to 4k bytes of
additional software can be incorporated without any
hardware modifications (other than moving two links to
select 2732s instead of 2716s).

Conversion of 2 Hexadecimal Characters to an
8-Bit Word
This subroutine takes 2 ASCII characters each in the
range 0 to 9, A to F, and converts them to a binary word.
First, the 3 ASCII code bits are masked off the number
first entered. This is shifted left 4 times and added to
the masked off 4 bits of the second number entered.
This 8-bit word is now 7 dots plus one attribute bit. With
this method, it is easy to write/read words quickly on to
the display, in the selected location. This can be
demonstrated with the program DMPI (dump·in) as in
the next two sections.

Conclusion
So using all National Semiconductor ICs, at a cost of a
few hundred dollars. the hardware for an intelligent
terminal with full graphics capability can be fitted on
one BLC80/SBC80 size card. The design is ec1sily
expandable to systems requiring color. The bigge"t
modification is to the memory; instead of one bit per
dot, 3 bits are required for blue, green, and red, to givE' 8
possible combinations per dot. A small number of extra
logic ICs are required, as are minor additions to the
software. To select the color, a CTL key can be used
followed by the code for the color. This color will then
be written until changed by the CTL key. A different CTL
key followed by a number could previously have set the
background.

Graphics Programs
'ClSC:

Clears screen only, leaving 13k back-up RAM
unaffected.

'LIST:

Lists all graphics programs.

'PLOT:

Plots a dot at X, Y. X is the number of horizontal dot positions from the left of screen,
from 0 to 7 x 80 for the 8350, i.e., 0'; x .;
559. Y is the number of vertical dots from
the top of the screen, from 0 to 10 x 24, i.e, .;
o .;y 239. The operator keys in the decimal
values of Y and then X when requested by
the display.

'VLlN:

Draws a vertical line between Y1 and Y2 at
X. These values are entered decimally by
keyboard when requested by the display.

'HLlN:

Draws a horizontal line between X1 and X2
at Y1. These values are entered decimally by
keyboard when requested by the display.

'RECT:

Draws a rectangle linking lines X1, X2, Y1,
and Y2.

'PONG: Bounces a dot around the screen between
the four walls of the display.
'DRAW: Draws a diagram on the screen from a
sequence of operations saved in ASCII code
in memory. The START address of the
sequence is determined by the first four
hexadecimal characters entered on the
keyboard. The address 1DOOH selects a DC
voltage restoring circuit sequence located in
the symbol EPROM. Address 1EOOH selects
a logic circuit and waveforms. Test
sequences can be loaded into back-up RAM
using program 'DMPI' at the starting and
end address entered. This start ac;ldress is
then called up by 'DRAW.' The end address
must contain 0 (zero).
'SAVE:

Saves in the back-up RAM a section of
display contained' withiri rows R1 to R2, and
columns C1 to C2. These values are entered
decimally by keyboard when requested by
display. The start address in the back-up
RAM is selected by the first four
hexadecimal characters entered on the
keyboard.

'lOAD:

loads from the back-up RAM to a section of
display bounded by R1, R2, C1, C2. These
values are entered decimally by keyboard
when requested by the display. The back-up
RAM start address is selected as in SAVE.

'DOTS:

Plots N dots on any line Y1 at postions X1,
Y1: ... XN, Y1; and then any new line
entered in decimal by the operator. Ends the
program by entering 0 (zero) when the next
Y1 is requested.

'MOVD: Uses the 8-channel 8-bit AID converter to
monitor the voltages on a X-V joystick, an
inhibit-draw switch, and an exit-program
switch. In the DRAW mode consecutive dots
are plotted to create a picture as described
by the movement of the joystick. All these
input signals are connected to the first AID
socket. In the inhibit DRAW mode the dot is
moved around by the joystick as a cursor,
and by keying in from the keyboard the
desired charcter, this character will appear
in the character field of the dot.This moving
dot can be used to erase existing dots, or
erase characters by keying 'SPACE' in the
desired position. To exit the program, set the
EXIT program switch in EXIT-DRAW mode
with the Inhibit-Draw Switch in INHIBIT.
'WAVE: Uses the AID converter to create waveforms
on the screen when the signals are
connected to the second AID socket.
'DMPO: Unloads any part of RAM to an external
system starting at an address keyed in by
the operator in hexadecimal characters (four)
and ending at another similarly entered
address. The RAM is unloaded 7 dots at a
time per line of character and converted to
two ASCII characters and then transmitted
serially.
'DMPI:

loads any part of RAM from an external
source (or the keyboard) starting at an
address selected by the first four
hexadecimal characters entered on the
keyboard and ending at another similarly
entered address. The RAM is loaded 7 dots
at a time per line of character, keyed in by
two hexadecimal characters, for each word.
The addresses selected can be display
addresses 8000H to CFFFH or back-up RAM
addresses DOOO to FFFFH (warning: FEOOH
upwards are registers and FFFFH
downwards are stack). Thus a complete _
picture could be loaded on to the display.
Alternately a program could be loaded into
back-up RAM at EXTO (DOOOH), EXT1
(D800H), EXT2 (EOOOH), or EXT3 (FOOOH). the
characters 'EXTn' can then be typed in on
the keyboard and this will then select the
instructions beginning at address EXTn.
Thus in-system emulation is easily
accomplished.

'EXTO:

Executes a program beginning at RAM
address DOOOH. The program must
previously have been entered using DMPI
selecting DOOOH as the starting address.

'EXT1:

As EXTO but starts at D800H.

'EXT2:

As EXTO but starts at EOOOH.

'EXT3:

As EXTO but starts at FOOOH.

Software Design for a High
Speed (38.4 kbaud)
Data Terminal

INTRODUCTION
This application note describes a high speed CRT terminal designed around the DP8350 CRT controller and the
INS8080 microprocessor. The hardware is a modified version of the circuit described in Application Note AN-199.
The software was redesigned and optimized for terminal
speed and function. In its present form it is upwards compatible with the Hazeltine 1500 video terminal and has a
limited graphics capability. Furthermore, it is able to
communicate with a host computer via an RS-232 port, at
38.4 kbaud, without using fill·in characters or handshak·
ing. One 2k by 8 EPROM contains all the software required
to implement the terminal. An optional EPROM can be
used to add features such as menu display or to transform
the terminal into a calculator (in the local mode). The
absence of the second EPROM does not affect the operation of the terminal as the software checks for its
·presence.

UNIQUE FEATURES
Graphics Capability: The graphics capability of this
terminal, although limited by the number of symbols (34),
proves to be very helpful. Typical uses include digital
waveform generation (e.g., logic analyzer display), and
graph oriented displays such as histograms. A graphics
menu is available in the local mode. Entering la t from
the keyboard will result in a two line menu display. Line
23 displays upper and lower case characters, while line
24 displays the corresponding graphics symbols (see
Figure 3). In local, entering I B will switch the terminal to
the graphics mode; the ESC key can be used to exit. In remote mode, the format requirements for graphics display
generation are summarized by the flowchart shown at
the bottom of this page.
The same flowchart can be used in local, if the "Iead-in"tt
block is omitted.
Typical transmission sequences are:
7E, 02, 42, 10, 1B
7E, 02, 63,10,10,10, ... ,10, 1B
7E,02,42,8,8,8,4A,7E,OC,7E,OC,1B

Modes: remote/local
Limited graphics
Window scrolling .
Line transmitting and local editing
Hazeltine 1500 compatible'
Video display: two pages, 24 x 80 characters/p~ge
Upper/lower case
Scrolling plus screen roll up/roll down
Cursor: blinking (two rates)
Line, character insert/delete
Attributes: dual intensity/inverse video
Full duplex RS-232 port; 110-38400 baud
Keyboard Input: 7-bit parallel
Full cursor control and addressing
Cursor enable/disable
Single board (BLC/SBC) compatible design

~II

the graphics symbols, along with the upper and lower
case characters, are coded into one 2716 EPROM. As a
result, poth the character set and the graphics symbols
may be customized. The total number of available fonts is
128. The field on each displayed character is 7 rows by 10
columns. The alphanumeric symbols occupy a 5 by 7 subfield typically, except forthose requiring descenders; they
occupy a 5 by 9 section, while the graphics symbols utilize

Transmit: The data terminal can transmit one line of text
upon receipt of the 14H code from the keyboard in local
mode, Alternately, the host CPU can request transmission
by sending 14H prefixed by the 7E lead-in code.

The same function can be used in a relatively unconventional way when programming in BASIC. The majority of
BASIC interpreters used in small business systems or
home computers incorporate a line-oriented editor, almost
adequate for most of the tasks they have to perform: The
basic problem with such editors is that they cannot
change the flow of the program easily. In other words they
cannot change line numbers. This is ashortcoming, as it is
both annoying and tedious having to retype segments of
text in order to change the program flow, just because the
editor cannot handle altering line numbers only.

80 Character Software FIFO: This is one of the key items
that allows terminal communication at 38.4 kbaud without
handshaking. An 80 character first-in, first-out software
buffer is used. The incoming characters are stored temporarily in this buffer, while the microprocessor is servicing
interrupts. As time becomes available, the characters are
retrieved from the FIFO and processed. That includes performing a terminal function or moving an ASCII character
to the video memory. The software allows for a large
number of concurrent service requests such as row start,
keyboard, as well as multiple ACE interrupts.

This terminal offers an efficient solution to this problem.
Simply stated, it allows changing line numbers only. Here
is a brief description of a typical sequence leading to text
and/or line number modification. Let us assume that a
BASIC interpreter is used and that the program that needs
to be changed is in memory. Using the list command, the
program lines to be modified can be displayed. Now, while
in the Command Mode of BASIC, the terminal is switched
to local. The user has effectively at his disposal a screenoriented editor. The cursor can be moved about and text
changed as desired; that, of course, includes line
numbers. When the editing is completed, the user positions the cursor on the line that was altered and types tT.
In response, the cursor scans the line, inverting the attributes. At the same time the line is transmitted to the host
CPU in the same order as it was scanned, from left to right.
Attribute inversion serves as feedback to the user. After
the last character of each line has been transmitted, the
cursor returns to the beginning of the following line. As a
result, consecutive tT keyboard entries transmit successive lines. Thus, altering the flow of a BASIC program involves entering the local mode, changing line numbers,
transmitting the modified program lines, and switching
back to on-line operation. All this can be accomplished at
a fract,ion of the time usually required otherwise. Finally,
entering similar lines of text such as the ones found in
"PRINT" statements, can be accomplished easily by
switching to local, typing the first line and transmitting it;
then moving the cursor up one line, changing the line
number along with parts of the text that are different, retransmitting the line, and so on. In this way the user can
create a long program segment while operating repetitivelyon one line.

Fast Service Routine for Row Start Interrupt: Conventional row start address look-up and loading are not done
during the row start interrupt time; instead, a simple row
counting routine is used. The terminal count (a software
counter) generates a triggering signal for video RAM wraparound address loading. The use of this technique improves the system throughput substantially. Cursor and
Top of the Page address loading (i.e., writing to the appropriate DP8350's registers) is done during the vertical
retrace interval.
Keyboard Controlled Mode Selection: The operating
mode of the terminal can be selected from the keyboard.
To aid the user in identifying which mode the terminal is in,
two cursor blinking rates are used. The low rate indicates
remote mode; a high rate indicates local.
Other functions that can be selected'from the keyboard
are:
1) Upperllower case. The default mode upon power up is
determined by reading the SW3 switch setting.
2) Next page. A software switch that selects for display
page one or two.
Read Cursor: In the local mode the present cursor location can be displayed on line 24, columns 79-80. For example, if the cursor is located on line 8, column 66, entering
I E from the keyboard will result in a display of "Ag" at the
bottom right hand corner of the screen. This can save time
in looking up the ASCII equivalent codes of the X, Y cursor
coordinates to be used in cursor addressing. (Note that,
IE = ENQ = 05H.)
The following is an example of how this could be used in a
BASIC program.

Insert/Delete with Range: This is a rather unusual function that can assist in generating psuedo "screen
window" effects. Specifically, a pre-selected number of
, display lines can scroll while the rest of the display remains fixed. Each "window" is defined as N lines by 80
characters, where: 1 < N < 48, counting from the current
cursor location to the end of page. The brief BASIC program that follows demonstrates the use of this function.
In this example the display lines 1 through 4, and 19
through 24 remain "frozen': The message (100 lines long)
is displayed on lines 5 through 18, demonstrating the
scrolling of a section of the display.
100
110
120
130
140

PRINTCHR$ (&H7E)+CHR$ (&H11)+"Ag"
Upon execution of the above statement, the cursor will
move to line 8, column 66.
Menu Display: In the local mode the user has access to a
menu display that summarizes the terminal's functions,
along with the corresponding control codes (see Figure 1).
This feature is optional and resides in EPROM #2. The important thing to note is that various kinds of menu/HELP
displays can be implemented easily in this fashion. This
function can be accessed from the keyboard. Alternately,
a dedicated HELP key (that generates the 10 code) can be
used.

PRINTCHR$(&H7E) + CHR$(&H11) +" d";
FOR 1= 1 TO 100
PRINT CHR$ (&H7E) + CHR$ (&HlO) + CHR$ (&H49)
+CHR$(12);
PRINT, "WINDOW SCROLLING LINE:", I,
CHR$ (&HOD);
NEXT I

DS554931DS75493 Quad LED Segment Driver
General Description

Features

The OS55493/0S75493 is a quad LED segment driver_
It is designed to interface between MOS IC's and LED's.
An external resistor is required for each segment to
drive the output current which is approximately equal
to 0.7V/R L and is relatively constant, independent of
supply variations_ Blanking can be achieved by taking
the chip enable (CE) to a logical "'" level.

D58654 a-Output Display Driver (LED, VF, Thermal Printer)
058656 Diode Matrix
General Description
088654 is an 8·digit driver with emitter/follower out·
puts. It can source up to 50 mA at a low impedance, and
operates with a constant internal drive current over a
wide range of power supply-from 4.5V to 33V. The
088654 can be used to drive electrical or mechanical,
multiplexed or un multiplexed 'display systems. It can be
used as a segment driver for common cathode displays
with external current limiting resistors or can drive
incandescent or fluorescent displays directly, both digits
(anodes) and segments (grids). It will be necessary to run
the device at a lower duty cycle, to keep the maximum
package dc power dissipation less than 600 mW while
operating all 8 outputs at high supply voltage and large
source current. The inputs are M08 compatible and
eliminate the need for level shifting since inputs are
referenced to the most negative supply of system.

uses. In this application the same segment in each digit
is selected at the same time, reducing the overall time
for a complete print cycle. The 088654 is an 8·digit
driver. With a 15·digit print head, two of the 088654
are required.
The 088656 diode arrays are used to prevent "sneak"
currents in the resistive print head. In a 15·digit print
head with one alphanumeric digit there are 119 resistor
segments requiring 119 diodes. Fc:>r ease of assembly, the
088656 is configured in four groups of three common
cathode diodes in each group. In the system, ten parts
of OSB656 are required.
The whole system is designed to operate from a +19V
supply for the print head and an 8·cell nickel·cadmium
battery supplying -8V to -11.6V for the rest of the
electronics. The 8·segment drive transistors require
LVCER'S of 33V min, {j of > 100 at Ic = 500 mA, and
VSA T:5 1.0V at 800 mA with 15 mA drive.

System Description
The 088654 and 088656 are specifically designed to
operate a thermal printing head for calculator or other

DS8692, 088693, 088694 Printing Calculator Interface Set
General Description
Two 058692 IC's and one each of the 058693 and
058694 provide the complete interface necessary
between the, MM5787 calculator chip and the Seiko
Model 310 printing head. The 058692 is an array of
eight common emitter output transistors each capable
of sinking 350 mA, with open collector saturating
outputs. The 058693 contains the interface logic for
the color solenoid driver, motor driver, and 7-column
character select solenoid drivers. The 058694 contains
the interface logic for 8-column solenoid drivers plus
the clock oscillator and timing signal buffer. The color
and character select solenoid latch outputs of both are

constant current outputs supplying the base current
for the 058692 arrays. These outputs also feature active
pull·down. The motor drive latch output is an open
collector capable of sinking 20 mAo

Features
• Provides complete interface package for printing
calculators with minimum number of packages and
minimum number of external components

Note 1: "Absolute Maximum Ratings" are those values beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. Except for "Operating
Temperature Range" they are not meant to imply that the devices should be operated at these limits. The table of "Electrical Characteristics"
provides conditions for actual device operation.
Note 2: Unless otherwise specified min/max limits apply across the O°C to +70°C range for the 058692, 058693, 058694. All typicals are given
for VCC = 10VandTA = 25°C.
Note 3: All currents into device pins shown as positive, out of device pins as negative, all voltages referenced to ground unless otherwise noted.

All values shown as max or min on absolute basis.
Note 4: R.atings refer to a high current point where collector·emitter voltage is lowest.
Note 5: Oscillator frequency is determined by external R between "Osc R" and "Osc C" and external C from "Osc C" to ground. 2k > R > 20k.
Note 6: Column outputs operate on approximately 1/16 duty cycle in normal operation.
Note 7: Measured with one output_on at a time.

General Description
lim it placed on the power dissipation allowable for each
package type. This information is shown in the graph
included in this data sheet.

The DS8859A. DS8869A are TTL compatible open
collector hex latch LED drivers with programmable
current sink outputs. The current sinks are nominally
set at 14 mA but may be adjusted by external resistors
for any value between 0-32 mAo Each device contains
six latches which may be set by input data terminals.
An active low strobe common to all six latches enables the data input terminals. The DS8859A current
sink outputs are switched on by entering a high level
into the latches and the DS8869A current sink outputs
are switched on by entering a low level into the latches.

Features
• Built-in latch
• Programmable output current
• TTL compatible inputs
• 32 mA output sink

The devices are available in either a molded or cavity
package. In order not to damage the devices there is a

058871, 058872, 058873 Saturating LED Cathode Drivers
General Description

Features

The 058871, 058872, and 058873 are bipolar integrated circuits designed to interface between MOS calculator circuits and common cathode LEO displays
operating in the multiplexed mode with a digit current
of up to 40 mAo The 058871 is an 8-digit driver; the
058872 is a 9-digit driver; and the 058873 is a 9-digit
driver with a built-in battery condition indicator that
turns on the digit 9 decimal point when ·the battery
voltage drops to 6.5V (typical). In a typical calculator
system operating on a 9V battery, the low battery
indicator comes on as a warning that the battery should
be replaced. But the calculator (MM5737 or equivalent)
will still function properly for awhile.

• Single saturating transistor output
• Low battery indicator
• MOS compatible inputs
• Inputs and outputs clustered for easy wiring
• Orivers consume no standby power

The 058874 is a 9·digit LED driver which incorporates a
·shift register input decoding circuit and a low battery
indicator. Outputs will sink 110 mA at less than 0.5V
drop when sequentially selected. When the Vee supply
falls below 6.5V typical, segment current will be fur·
nished at digit 9 time to indicate a low battery condition.
Pin 13 is generally connected to the decimal point
segment on the display so that when a low battery
condition exists, the left·most decimal point lights up.

058877 6·Digit LED Driver
General Description

Features

The 058877 is a 6-digit LEO driver designed as a pinfor-pin replacement for the 0575492 in applications
where digit current is in the 5 to 50 mA range. Since the
outputs saturate to less than 0_6V, the 058877 will
work on lower battery voltages than most digit drivers.
The 058877 draws no standby power.

o
General Description
The DS7880/DS8880 is custom designed to decode four lines of BCD and drive a gas-filled
seven-segment display tube.

IRpl from Vee to the Program input in accor·
dance with the programming curve. The circuit
design provides a one·to·one correlation between
program input current and b·segment output
current.

Each output constitutes a switchable, adjustable
current sink which provides constant current
to the tube segment, even with high tube anode
supply tolerance or fluctuation. These current
sinks have a voltage compliance from 3V to
at least SOY; typically the output current varies
1% for output voltage changes of 3 to 50V. Each
bit line of the decoder switches a current sink on
or off as prescribed by the input code. Each
current sink is ratioed to the b·output current
as required for even illumination of all segments.

The Blanking Input provides unconditional blank·
ing of any output display, while the Ripple Blank·
ing pins allow simple leading· or .traili'ng·zero
blanking.

Features
• Current sink outputs
• Adjustable output current - 0.2 to 1.5 mA
• High output breakdown voltage - 11 OV typ
• Suitable for multiplex operation
• Blanking and Ripple Blanking provisions
• Low fan-in and low power

Output currents may be varied over the 0.2 to 1.5
mA range for driving various tube types or
multiplex operation. The output current is ad·
justed by connecting an external program resIstor

DS8881 Vacuum Fluorescent Display Driver
General Description

Features

The DS8881 vacuum fluorescent display driver will
drive 16-digit grids of a vacuum fluorescent display.
The decode inputs select one of the sixteen outputs to
be pulled high. The device contains an oscillator for
supplying clock signals to the MOS circuit, the filament
bias zener and 50 kn pull-down resistors for each grid.
Outputs will source up to 7 mAo The DS8881 is designed
for 9V operation. If the enable input is pulled low, all
outputs are disabled.

• Oscillator frequency accuracy and stability allows
maximum system speed
•

Interdigit blanking with the enable input provides
ghost-free display operation

• 50 kn pull-down resistors for each grid
• 7V filament bias zener

Comma/d. pt. drive

All outputs consist of switch able and programmable current sinks which provide constant cur·
rent to the tube cathodes, even with high tube
anode supply tolerance. Output currents may be
varied over the 0.2 to 1.2 rnA range for multiplex operation. The output current is adjusted by
connecting an external program resistor (Rpl
from Vee to the program i.nput in accordance
with the programming curve. Unused outputs
must be tied to Vee.

DS8885 MOS to High Voltage Cathode Buffer
General Description
The DSBBB5 interfaces MOS calculator or counterlatch-decoder-driver circuits directly to 7-segment,
high-voltage, gas-filled displays. The six inputs A,
B, D, E, F, G are decoded to drive the 7-segment
of the tube. .

multiplex operation. The output current is adjusted
by connecting a program resistor (Rp) from Vcc to
the program input.

Each output constitutes a switchable, adjustable
current source which provides constant current to
the tube segment, even with high tube anode supply
tolerance or fluctuation. These current sources have
a voltage compl iance from 3V to at least BOV. Each
current source is ratioed to the b-output current
as required for even illumination of all segments.
Output currents may be varied over the 0.2 to
1.5 mA range for driving various tube types or

Note 1; "Absolute Maximum Ratings" are those values beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. They are not meant to imply

that the devices should be operated at these limits. The table of "Electrical Characteristics" provides conditions for actual device operation.
Note 2: Unless otherwise specified min/max limits apply across the O°C to +70°C range for the 058885. All typical values are for TA = 2SoC
and VCC = 5V.
Note 3: All currents into device pins shown as positive. out of device pins as negative. all voltages referenced to ground unless otherwise noted. All
values shown as max or min on absolute value basis.
Note 4: In all applications transient segment output current must be limited to 50 rnA. This may be accomplished in de applications by connecting
a.2.2k resistor from the anode·supply filter capacitor to the display anode, or by current limiting the anode drive in multiplex applications.
Note 5: For saturation mode the segment output currents are externally limited and raticed.

DS7889/DS8889 8-Segment High Voltage Cathode Driver
(Active-High Inputs)
DS7897A/DS8897A 8-Digit High Voltage Anode Driver
(Active-Low Inputs)
General Description
output sink current, which can be adjusted by
external program resistor, Rp. The prqgram current is half that of output "ON" current. In the
"OFF" state the outputs can tolerate more than
80V. The ratio of "ON" output currents is within
±10%. Inputs have negative clamp diodes. Active
high input logic. The main application of the
device is to interface MOS circuits to high-voltage
displays. Unused outputs should have corresponding inputs connected to VEE'

The OSBB87 and OS7897 A/OS8897 A are designed to drive the inpividual anodes of a 7-segment (cathodes) high-voltage gas discharge panel
in a time multiplexed fashion.
When driven with appropriate input signals, the
driver will switch voltage and impedance levels at
the anode. This will allow or prevent ionization
of gas around selected cathode in order to form a
numeric display. This main application is to interface with MOS outputs (fully-decoded) and the
anodes of a gas-discharge panel, since the devices
can source up to 16 mA at a low impedance and
can tolerate more than 55V in the "OF F" state.

Features
• Versatile circuits for a wide range of display
applications .
• High breakdown voltages
• Low power dissipation

FIGURE 5. Nonmultiplex Application of the DM7447A

Refer to Table II for the operating temperature
range and package types for the DM5446A/
DM7446A and DM5447A/DM7447A.

DM5446A/DM7446A, DM5447A/DM7447A
These circuits feature active-low, open collector
high current outputs (Figure 4a). Each output is
capable of sinking up to 40 mA at a maximum
internal drop of O.4V. This high current capability
makes these circuits particularly well suited for
driving the large MAN-lor equivalent type displays
directly. The circuits. are also applicable, with or
without the use of external current limit resistors,
to driving lower current displays in the multiplex
mode of drive.

DM5448/DM7448
The DM5448/DM7448 has active high passive
pull-up outputs (Figure 4b) with a TTL fanout of
4. The typical output source current is 2.0 mA at
an output voltage of 0.85V. Each output is
capable of sinking 6.4 mA with a maximum
internal drop of O.4V. Since the output current
level is low the circuit can be used to drive low
current common cathode displays operating in the
non multiplex mode.

The DM5446A and DM7446A outputs are capable
of withstanding 30V at a maximum leakage of
250J,lA over temperature. The DM5447A and
DM7447A have a 15V output capability at a
maximum leakage over temperature of 250J,lA.
This 'standoff voltage ability makes the circuits
applicable for direct drive to indicator lamp type
displays. Figure 5 shows a typical application of
the circuits with LEDs.

The major application of the DM5448/DM7448
is to drive logic circuits, operate high·voltage
loads such as electroluminescent displays through
buffer transistors or SCR switches, or high-current

of 50 mA at an output voltage of 2_3V _ The
circuit was designed to be used with MAN-4 or
equivalent type displays operating in the multiplex
mode of drive_ With this high current capability
the circuit can drive up to 16 such digits_

DM8857_ The output stages are exactly the same
as the DM8857 except that the internal current
limit resistor per output has been removed.
External current limit resistors must then be used.
This allows the circuit to be customized for a
particular common cathode multiplex or nonmultiplex application. Each output stage, through
its own external resistor, can be programmed to
some current from 50 mA down to a mAo Care
must be taken in not shorting the outputs to
ground because of the excessive current flow that
would result from the Darlington upper stage. See
Figure 9 for a typical application of the DM8858.

The applications of this circuit obviously are not
limited to just the MAN-4 type of display_ Common
cathode displays with high dc current requirements or lower multiplex current levels may be
driven by this circu it with the use of an external
current limit resistor per segment_ A typical application of the DM8857 is given in Figure 8_

Transient Current
. The maximum peak output current of the DS0025
is given .as 1.5A. Average transient current required
from the driver can be calculated from:

When the input current has decayed, or has been
switched, such that a, turns off, O2 receives base
drive through R2, turning O2 on. This supplies
current to the load and the output swirigs positive
toV+ - VeE'
.
.

(1)

Typical rise times into 1000 pF load is 25 ns
For V+ - V- = 20V, 1= 0.8A.

It may be noted that a, must switch off before
O2 begins to supply current, hence high internal
transients currents from V- to V+ cannot occur.

Transient Output Power
The average transient power (P 8e) dissipated, is
equal to the energy needed to charge and discharge

Example Calculation
How many MM506 shift registers can be driven by
a DS0025CN driver at 1 MHz using a clock pulse
width of 200 ns, rise time 30-50 ns and 16\1 amplitude over the temperature range'0-70°C?

For one-half of the DS0025C, 870 mW';' 2 can be
dissipated.

Power Dissipation:

385 mW = transient output power

435 mW = 50 mW + transient output power

At 70°C the DS0025CN can dissipate 870 mW
when soldered into printed circuit board.

Using equation (21 at 16V, 1 MHz and 350.mW,
each half of the DS0025CN can drive a 1.367 pF
load. This is less than the load imposed by the
transient current limitation of equation (I) and
so a maximum load of 1367 pF would prevail.

Transient Peak Current Limitation:
From equation (I), it can be seen that at 16V and
30 ns, the maximum load that can be driven is
limited to 2800 pF.
Average Internal Power:
Equation (3), gives an average power of 50mW at
16V and a 20% duty cycle.

From the data sheet for the MM506, the average
clock pulse load is 80 pF. Therefore the number
of devices driven is 1367/80 or 17 registers.

050026, 050056 5 MHz Two Phase MOS Clock Drivers

General Description
in pulling up the output when it is in the high state. An
external resistor tied between these extra pins and a
supply higher than V+ will cause the output to pull up
to (V+ - 0.1 V) in the off state.

OS0026/0S0056 are low cost monolithic high speed
two phase MOS clock drivers and interface circuits.
Unique circuit design provides both very high speed
operation and the ability to drive large capacitive loads.
The device accepts standard TTL outputs and con·
verts them to MOS logic levels. They may be driven
from standard 54/74 series and 54S/74S series gates
and flip·flops or from drivers such as the OS8830 or
OM7440. The OS0026 and OS0056 are intended for
applications in which the output pulse width is logically
controlled; i.e., the output pulse width is equal to the
input pulse width.

For DS0056 applications, it is required that an external
resistor be used to prevent damage to the device when
the driver switches low. A typical VBB connection is
shown on the next page.
These devices are available in 8·lead TO·5, one watt
copper lead frame 8-pin mini·DIP, and one and a half
watt ceramic DIP, and TO·8 packages.

The OS0026/0S0056 are designed to fulfill a wide
variety of MOS interface requirements. As a MOS clock
driver for long silicon·gate shift registers, a single device
can drive over 10k bits at 5 MHz. Six devices provide
input address and precharge drive for a 8k by 16·bit
1103 RAM memory system. Information an the correct
usage of the OS0026 in these as well as other systems is
included in the application note AN·76.

Features
• Fast rise and fall times-20 ns with 1000 pF load
• High output swing-20V
• High output current drive-±1.5 amps
• TTL compatible inputs
• High rep rate-5 to 10 MHz depending on power
dissipation
• Low power consumption in MOS "0" state-2 mW
• Drives to O.4V of GND for RAM address drive

The OS0026 and OS0056 are identical except each
driver in the OS0056 is provided with a VBB connection
to supply a higher voltage to the output stage. This aids

All values shown as max or min on absolute value basis.
Note 4: All typical values for the T A = 25°C.

Note 5: Rise and fall time are given for MOS logic levels; i.e., rise time is transition from logic "0" to logic "1" which is voltage fall.
Note 6: IBB for DS0056 is approximately (VBB - Y-)/l kn (for one side) when output is low.
Note 7: The high current transient (as high as 1.5A) through the resistance of the external interconnecting V- lead during the-output transition
from the high state to the low state can appear as negative feedback to the input. If the external interconnecting lead from the driving circuit to
V- is electrically long, or has significant de resistance, it can subtract from the switching response.

DRIVING THE MM5262 WITH THE
080056 CLOCK DRIVER
The clock signals for the MM5262 have three require·
ments which have the potential of generating problems
for the user. These requirements, high speed, large
voltage swing and large capacitive loads, combine to
provide ample opportunity for inductive ringing on clock
lines, coupling clock signals to other clocks and/or
inputs and outputs and generating noise on the power
supplies. All of these problems have the potential of
causing the memory system to malfunction. Recognizing
the source and potential of these problems early in the
design of a memory system is the most critical step.
The object here is to point out the source of these
problems and give a quantitative feel for their magnitude.

limiting the inductance of the clock lines can be
accomplished by minimizing their length and by laying
out the lines such that the return current is closely
coupled to .the clock lines. When minimizing the length
of clock lines it is important to minimize the distance
from the clock driver output to the furthest point
being driven. Because of this, memory boards are
usually designed with clock drivers in the center of
the memory array, rather than on ohe side, reducing the
maximum distance by a factor of 2.
Using multilayer printed circuit boards with clock lines
sandwiched between the Voo and Vss power plains
minimizes the inductance of the clock lines. It also
serves the function of preventing the clocks from coupling
noise into input and output lines. Unfortunately multi·
layer printed circuit boards are more expensive than
two sided boards. The user must make the decision as '
to the necessity of multilayer boards. Suffice it to say
here, that reliable memory boards can be designed using
two sided printed circuit boards.

line ringing comes from the fact that at a high enough
frequency any line must be considered as a transmission
line with distributed inductance and capacitance. To
see how much ringing can be tolerated we must examine
the clock voltage specification. Figure 6 shows the clock

The recommended clock driver for use with the MM4262/
MM5262 is the DS0056/DS0056C dual clock driver.
This devi.ce is designed specifically for use with dynamic
circuits using a substrate, VBB , supply. Typically it will
drive a 1000 pF load with 20 ns rise and fall times.
Figure 7 shows a schematic of a single driver.

specification, in diagram form, with idealized ringing
sketched in. The ringing of the clock about the Vss level
is particularly critical. If the Vss - 1 VOH is not main·
tained, at all times, the information stored in the m~mory
could be' altered. Referring to Figure 1, if the threshold
voltage of a transistor were -1.3V, the clock going to
Vss - 1 would mean that all the devices, whose gates
are tied to that clock, would be only 300 mV from
turning on. The internal circuitry needs this noise
margin and from the functional description of the RAM
it is easy to see that turning a clock on at the wrong
time can have disastrous results.

Controlling the clock ringing is particulary difficult
because of the relative magnitude of the allowable
ringing, compared to the magl')itude. of the transition.
In this case it is lV out of 20V o[ only 5%. Ringing
can be controlled by damping the clock driver and
minimizing the line inductance.

05

Damping the clock driver by placing a resistance in
series with its output is effective, but there is a limit
since it also slows down the rise and fall time of the
clock signal. Because the typical clock driver can be
much faster than the worst case driver, the damping
resistor serves the useful function of limiting the
minimum rise and fall time. This is very important
because the faster the rise and fall times, the worse thb
ringing problem becomes. The size of the damping
resistor varies because it is ,dependent on the details of
the actual application. It must be determined empirically.
In practice a resistance of 10 ohms to 20 ohms is usually
optimum.

FIGURE 7. Schematic of 1/2 OS0056

In the case of the MM526:l, ·V+ is a +5V and V BB is
+8.5V. V BB should be connected to the VBB pin
shown in Figure 7 through a 1 kn resistor. This allows
transistor 04 to saturate, pulling the output to within a
VCE(SAT) of the V+ supply. This is critical because as
was shown before, the Vss - 1.0V clock level must not
be exceeded at any time. Without the VBB pull up on
the base of 04 the output at best will be 0.6V below
the V+ supply and can be lV below the V+ supply
reducing the noise margin or this line to zero.

(Continued)

Because of the amount of current that the clock driver
must supply to its capacitive load, the distribution of
power to the clock driver must be considered. Figure 8
gives the idealized voltage and current waveforms for a
clock driver driving a 1000 pF capacitor with 20 ns
rise and fall time.

inductance, L, is also shown. Let us assume, for the sake
of argument, that Cc is 1 pF and that the rise time of
the clock is high enough' to completely isolate the clock
tranisent from the 7404 because of the inductance, L.

This has been a hypothetical example to emphasize
that with 20V low rise/fall time transitions; parasitic
elements can not be neglected. In this example, 1 pF
of parasitic capacitance could cause system malfunction,
because a 7404 without a pull up resistor has typically
only 0.3V of noise margin in the "1" state at 25°C.
Of course it is stretching things to assume that the
inductance, L, completely isolates the clock transient
from the 7404. However, it does point out the need
to minimize inductance in input/output as well as
clock lines.

FIGURE 8. Clock Waveforms (Voltage and Current!

As can be seen the cu rrent is significant. This current
flows in the Voo and Vss power lines. Any significant
inductance in the lines will produce large voltage
transients on the power supplies, A bypass capacitor,
as close as possible to the clock driver, is helpful in
minimizing this problem. This bypass is most effective
when conn,ected between the Vss and Voo supplies. A
bypass capacitor for each OS0056 is recommended.
The size of the bypass capacitor depends on the amount
of capacitance being driven. Using a low inductance
capacitor, such as a ceramic or silver mica, is most
effective. Another helpful technique is to run the Voo
and Vss lines, to the clock driver, adjacent to each
other. This tends to reduce the lines inductance and
therefore the magnitude of the voltage transients.

The output is current, so it is more' meaningful to
examine the current that is coupled through a 1 pF
parasitic capacitance. The current would be:
tN

X 10- 9

= 1 mA

This exceeds the total output cu rrent swi ng so it is
obviously significant.
Clock coupling to inputs and outputs can be minimized
by using multilayer printed circuit boards, as mentioned
previously, physically isolating clock lines and/or ru'nning clock lines at right angles to input/output lines.
All of these techniques tend to minimize parasitic
coupling capacitance from the clocks to the signals in
question.

While discussing the clock driver, it should be pointed
out that the OS0056 is a relatively low input impedance
device. It is possible to couple current noise into the
input without. seeing a significant voltage., Since this
noise is difficult to detect with an oscilloscope it is
often overlooked.
Lastly, the clock
generators. Figure

In considering clock coupling it is also important to
have a detailed knowledge of the functional characteristics
of the device being used. As an example, for the MM5262,
coupling noise from the q,2 clock to the address lines
is of no particular consequence. On the other hand the
address inputs will be sensitive to noise coupled from
q,1 clock.

The capacitive coupling of the pretamplifier outputs to the

Functional Pin Description

Output Disable (00): A logic high level at this input
causes the data output to go into the high impedance
state (TRI·STATE).

ANALOG INPUTS
Differential Analog Inputs (IN + and IN -): These are high
impedance inputs for bubble memory detectors. They also
provide the bias current to the detectors at a constant DC
voltage. The sense·amp threshold is positive with respect
to the IN + input.

Standby Input (SB): When the sense·amp is not in use this
input can be used to reduce power consumption. A logic
high level applied to this input puts the sense·amp in
standby mode and TRI·STATEs the data output pin. The
power fail detector circuit is not affected by this input.

Bias Voltage Input (Va): When an external DC voltage (be·
tween 4V and BV) is applied to this input, the internal error
amplifier will adjust the bias current sources to maintain
the average common·mode voltage of IN+ and IN - in·
puts at this value. This input ca'n be connected to Voo to
obtain an internally set bias voltage of 7V typical. This
voltage is derived on·chip from a resistor divider con·
nected across the Voo supply.

DIGITAL OUTPUTS
Data Output (OUT): This output is high for signals cross·
ing the threshold and low for those below the threshold.
The data on this pin is valid a short time after the negative
transition of the strobe signal and will remain valid until
the next negative transition of the strobe signal.
Power Fail Detect Output (NPF): This output goes low
when either one or both of the supplies fall below the trip
voltage. It will remain low until both of the supplies fall
below a minimum level which is 4V for Voo and 2.BV for
Vee. It is an open collector output with an' internal pull·up
of 5 kO (typical). The circuit is insensitive to transients on
the supplies and will typically reject a 500 ns pulse that
goes 1V below the trip voltage.

Threshold Adjust Input (VT): An externally applied DC
voltage in the range of OV to 10V at this input will set the
threshold of the sense·amplifier in the 0 mV to 20 mV
range. The threshold is linearly related to this voltage.
Power Fail Adjust Input (PFA): The trip voltage of 5V and
12V supplies can be set to a fraction of their nominal
values by applying an external reference voltage to this in·
put (see graph). When precise power fail detection is not
required this input may be grounded to obtain a trip
voltage between 35% and 65% of the nominal supply
levels (i.e., 5V and 12V).

POWER SUPPLIES
Analog Supply (V DO): 12V.
Digital Supply (Vccl: 5V to 12V. This supply is internally
regulated to 4.5V and hence can be tied to Voo for single
supply operation, but a standard 5V logic supply reduces
power consumption' and also permits power fail detection
of the 5V supply.

ANALOG OUTPUTS
Buffered Bubble Signal Output (BUF+): This is the
preamplifier output which is in phase with the IN + input.

Multiplexers/Drivers
General Description
The OS1648/0S3648 and OS1678/DS3678 are quad
2-input multiplexers with TR I-STATE outputs designed
to drive the large capacitive loads (up to 500 pF)
associated with MOS memory systems. A PNP input
structure is employed to minimize input currents so that
driver loading in large memory systems is reduced. The
circuit employs Schottky-clamped transistors for high
speed and TRI-STATE outputs for bus operation.

low impedance output for use with or without an
external resistor.

Features
• TRI-STATE outputs interface directly with system
bus
• Schottky-clamped for better ac performance
• PNP inputs to minimize input loading
• TTL compatible
• High-speed capacitive load drivers
• Built-in damping resistor (OS1648/0S3648 only)

The OS1648/0S3648 has a 15 n resistor in series with
the outputs to dampen transients caused by the fastswitching output. The OS1678/0S3678 has a direct,

resistor.

The OS1649/0S3649 and OS1679/0S3679 are Hex
TRI-STATE MOS drivers with outputs designed to drive
large capacitive loads up to 500 pF associated with MOS
memory systems. PNP input transistors are employed to
reduce input currents allowing toe large fan-out to these
drivers needed in memory systems. The circuit has
Schottky-clamped transistor logic for minimum propagation delay, and TR I-STATE outputs for bus operation.

Features
• High speed capabilities
• Typ 9 ns driving 50 pF
• Typ 30 ns driving 500 pF
• TRI-STATE outputs for data bussing
• Built-in 15 n damping resistor (OS1649/083649)
• 8ame pin-out as OM8096 and OM74366

The OSl649/0S3649 has a 15 n resistor in series with
the outputs to dampen transients caused by the fastswitching output.. The OS1679/0S3679 has a direct low

Note 1: "Absolute Maximum Ratings" are those values beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. Except for "Operating
Temperature Range" they are not meant to imply that the devices should be operated at these limits. The table of "Electrical Characteristics"
provides conditions for actual device operation.
Note 2: Unless otherwise specified minimax limits apply across the -55°e to +125°e temperature range for the 051649 and 051679 and across
the oOe to +70o e range for the 053649 and 053679. All typical values are for TA = 25°C and Vee = 5V.
Note 3: All currents into device pins shown as positive, out of device pins as negative, all voltages referenced to ground unless otherwise noted.
All values shown as max or min on absolute value basis.
Note 4: When measuring output drive current and switching response for the 051679 and 053679 a 15 n resistor should be placed in series with
each output. This resistor is internal to the 051649/053649 and need not be added.

Note 3: All currents into device pins shown as positive, out of device pins as negative, all voltages referenced to ground unless otherwise noted.
All values shown as max or min on absolute value basis.

Note 4: Only one output at a time should be shorted.
Note 5: A parameter which is of primary concern when designing with sense amplifiers is, what is the minimum differential input voltage required
at the sense amplifier input terminals to guarantee a given output logic state. This parameter is commonly referred to as threshold voltage. It is
well known that design considerations of threshold voltage are plagued by input offset currents, bias currents, network source resistances, and

voltage gain. As a design convenience, the DS1651, OS1653 and DS3651, DS3653 are specified to a parameter called input sensitivity (VIS). This
parameter takes into consideration input offset currents and bias currents, and guarantees a minimum input differential voltage to cause a given
output logic state with respect to a maximum source impedance of 200n at each input.

051671/053671 Bootstrapped Two Phase MOS Clock Driver
General Description
The 051671/053671 is a high speed dual MaS clock
driver and interface circuit. Unique circuit design provides both very high speed operation and the ability
to drive large capacitive loads. The device accepts
standard TTL outputs and converts them to MaS logic
levels. It may be driven from standard 54/74 and 545/
745 series gates and flip·flops or from drivers such as
the 058830 or OM7440. The circuit pan be used in
both P-channel and N·channel MaS memory system
drive applications.

Each driver uses output bootstrapping to provide a
higher voltage to the output stage, thus eliminating the
need for an additional V00 supply. The bootstrapping
function is accomplished by connecting a small value
capacitor (typically 200 pF) from each output to each
drivers bootstrap node.

General Description

Features

The OS3685 is a hex latch. PNP input transistors are used
to reduce input currents, allowing large fan-out to these drivers. The circuif has Schottky-clamped transistor logic for
minimum propagation delay, and TRI-STATE outputs which
allow bus operation.

•
•
•
•
•

The circuit employs a fall-through latch which captures the
data in parallel with the output, thereby eliminating the delay
normally encountered in other latch circuits.

General Description
switching output. The 0816179/0836179 has a direct
low impedance output for use with or without an
external resistor.

The 0816149/0836149 and 0816179/0836179 are
Hex M08 drivers with outputs designed to drive large
capacitive loads up to 500 pF associated with M08
memory systems. PNP input transistors are employed to
reduce input currents allowing the large fan-out to these
drivers needed in memory systems. The circuit has
8chottky-clamped transistor logic for minimum propagation delay. and a disable control that places the outputs
in the logic "1" state (see truth table). This is especially
useful in M08 RAM applications where a set of address
lines has to be in tlje logic "1" state during refresh.

Features
• High speed capabilities
• Typ 9 ns driving 50 pF
• Typ 29 ns driving 500 pF
• Built-in 15 n damping resistor (0816149/0836149)
• 8ame pin-out as OM8096,and OM74366

The 0816149/0836149 has a 15 n resistor in series with
the outputs to dampen transients caused by the fast-

• TTL compatible

The DS75361 operates from standard TTL 5V supplies
and the MaS Vss supply in many applications. The
device has been optimized for operation with VCC2
supply voltage from 16V to 20V; however, it is designed
for use over a much wider range of VCC2.

•

Operates from standard bipolar and MaS supplies

•

POWER DISSIPATION PRECAUTIONS

Significant power may be dissipated in the OS75361
driver when charging and discharging high·capacitance
loads over a wide voltage range at high frequencies.
The total dissipation curve shows the power dissipated in
a typical 0575361 as a function of load capacitance and
frequency. Average power dissipated by this driver can
be broken into three components: '
P TIAV ) = POCIAV)

neglected. The total dissipation curve for no load demonstrates this point. The power dissipation contributions
from both channels are then added together to obtain
total device power.
The following example illustrates this power calculation
technique. Assume both channels are operating identically with C = 200 pF, f = 2 MHz, VCe1 = 5V, V CC2 =
20V, and duty cycle = 60% outputs high (tH/T = 0.6).
Also, assume VOH = 19.3V, VOL = 0.1V, Ps is negligible,
and that the current from VCC2 is negligible when the
output is high.

+ P CIAV ) + P SIAV )

where POCIAV) is the steady-state power dissipation with
the output high or low, P CIAV ) is the power level during
charging or discharging of the load capacitance, and
P SIAV ) is the power dissipation during switching between
the low and high levels: None of these include energy
transferred to the load and all are averaged over a full
cycle.

On a per·channel basis using data sheet values:

DS75362 Dual TTL-ta-MOS Driver
General DeSCription

. Features

The DS75362 is a dual monolithic integrated TTL-toMaS driver and interface circuit that accepts standard
TTL input signals and provides high-current and highvoltage output levels suitable 'for driving MaS circuits.
It is used to drive address, control, and timing inputs
for several types of MaS RAMs including the 1103.

• Dual positive-logic NAND TTL-to-MaS driver
• Versatile interface circuit for use between TTL and
high-current, high-voltage systems
II Capable of driving high-capacitance loads
• Compatible with many popular MaS RAMs
• VCC2 supply voltage variable over wide range to 24V
maximum
• VCC3 supply voltage pin available
• VCC3 pin can be connected to VCC2 pin in some
applications
• TTL compatible diode-clamped inputs
' .• aper'ltes from standard bipolar and MaS supply
voltages
• High-speed switching
• Transient overdrive minimizes power dissipation
• Low standby power dissipation

The DS75362 operates from the TTL 5V supply and the
MaS Vss and Vee supplies in many applications. This
device has been optimized for operation with VCC2
supply voltage from 16V to 20V, and with nominal
VCC3 supply voltage from 3V to 4V higher than VCC2 .
However, it is designed so as to be usable over a much
wider range of VCC2 and VCC3 . In some applications the
VCC3 power supply can be eliminated by connecting the
VCC3 pin to the VCC2 pin.

Typical Application
The fast switching speeds of this device may produce
undesirable output transient overshoot because of load
or wiring inductance. A small series damping resistor
may be used to reduce or eliminate this output transient
overshoot. The optimum value of the damping resistor
depends on the specific load characteristics and switching
speed. A typical value would be between lOn and 30n
(Figure 2).
FIGURE 3. Output Voltage Wa~eform

PL, PH, PLH, and PHL are the respective instantaneous
levels of power dissipation and C is load capacitance.
The OS75362 is so'designed that Ps is a negligible portion of PT in most applications. Except at very high
tLH + tHL so that Ps can be
frequencies, tL + tH
neglected. The total dissipation curve for no load
demonstrates this point. The power dissipation contributions from two channels are then added together
to obtain total device power.

The following example illustrates this power calculation
technique. Assume two channels are operating identically with C = 100 pF, f = 2 MHz, VCC1 = 5V, VCC2 =
20V, VCC3 = 24V and duty cycle = 60% outputs high
(tH/T = 0.6). Also, assume VOH = 20V, VOL = O.lV,
Ps is negligible, and that the current from VCC2 is
negligible when the output is low.

POWER DISSIPATION PRECAUTIONS
Significant power may be dissipated in the OS75362
driver when charging and discharging high-capacitance
loads over a wide voltage range at high frequencies.
The total, dissipation curve shows the power dissipated in
a typical OS75362 as a function of load capacitance and
frequency. Average power dissipation by this driver
can be broken into three components:

(2.24mA)] (0.6) + [(5V) (31 ;A) +

PT(AV) = POC(AV) + PC(AVI + PS(AV)

(20V) (d;A) + (24V)

where POC(AV) is the steady-state power dissipation with
, the output high' or low, PC(AV) is the power level during
charging or discharging of the load capacitance, and
PS(AV) is the power dissipation during switching between
the low and high levels. None of these include energy
transferred to the load and all are averaged over a full

POWER DISSIPATION PRECAUTIONS
Significant power may be dissipated in the 0575365
driver when charging and discharging high·capacitance
loads over a wide voltage range at high frequencies.
The total dissipation .curve shows the power dissipated in
a typical 0575365 as a function of load capacitance and
frequency. Average power dissipation by this driver
can be broken into three components:

neglected. The total dissipation curve for no load
demonstrates this point. The power dissipation contributions from all four channels are then added together
to obtain total device power.
The following example illustrates this power calculation
technique. Assume all four channels are operating identically with C = 100 pF, f = 2 MHz, VCC1 = 5V, VCC2 =
20V, VCC3 = 24V and duty cycle = 60% outputs high
(tH/T = 0.6). Also, assume VOH = 20V, VOL = O.lV,
Ps is negligible, and that the current from VCC2 is
negligible when the output is low.
.

PT(AV) = POC(AV) + PC(AV) + PS(AV)
where POC(AV) is the steady-state power dissipation with
the output high or low, PC(AV) is the power level during
charging or discharging of the load capacitance, and
PS(AV) is the power dissipation during switching between
the low and high levels. None of these include energy

Applying Modern Clock
Drivers to MOS Memories

INTRODUCTION
The OS0026 is a high speed, low cost, monolithic clock
driver intended for applications above one megacycle.
Table II illustrates its performance characteristics while
its unique circuit design is presented in Appendix II.
The OS0056 is a variation of the OS0026 circuit which
allows the system designer to modify the output performance of the circuit. The OS0056 can be connected
(using a second power supply) to increase the pOSitive
output voltage level and reduce the effect of cross
coupling capacitance between the clock lines in the
system. Of course the above are just examples of the
many different types that are commercially available:
Other National Semiconductor MaS interface circuits
are listed in Appendix III.

MaS memories present unique system and circuit
challenges to the engineer since they require precise
timing of input wave forms. Since these inputs present
large capacitive loads to drive circuits, it is often that
timing problems are not discovered until an entire
system is constructed. This paper covers the practical
aspects of using modern clock drivers in MaS memory
systems. Information includes selection of packages and
heat sinks, power dissipation, rise and fall time consid·
erations, power supply decoupling, system clock line
ringing and crosstalk, input coupling techniques, and
example calculations. Applications covered include
driving various types shift registers and RAM's (Random
Access Memories) using logical control as well as other
techniques to assure correct non·overlap of timing waveforms.

The following section will hopefully allow the design
engineer to select and apply the best circuit to his parti·
cular application while avoiding common system problems.

Although the information given is generally applicable
to any type of driver, monolithic integrated circuit
drivers, the OS0025, OS0026 and OS0056 are selected
as examples because of their low cost.

PRACTICAL ASPECTS OF USING
MaS CLOCK DRIVERS

The OS0025 was the first monolithic clock driver.
It is intended for applications up to one megacycle
where low cost is of prime concern. Table I illustrates
its performance while Appendix I describes its circuit
operation. Its monolithic, rather than hybrid or module
construction, was made possible by a new high voltagegold doped' process utilizing a collector sinker to minimize VCESAT.

Package and Heat Sink Selection.
Package type should be selected on power handling
capability, standard size, ease of handling, availability
of sockets, ease or type of heat sinking required, reliability and cost. Power handling capability for various
packages is illustrated in Table III. The following guidelines are recommended:

The 8·pin ("N") molded mini·DIP is rated at 600 mW
still air (derate at 90°C/W above 25°C) soldered to PC
board (derate at 1.39W). Constructed with a special cop·
per lead frame, this package is recommended for
medium size commercial systems particularly where
automatic insertion is used. (Please note for prototype
work, that this package is only rated at 600 mW when
mounted in a socket and not one watt until it is soldered

For the DS0025, Req is typically 1 kn while Req is
typically 600n for the DS0026. Graphical solutions for
P oc appear in Figure 1. For example if V+ = +5V,
V- = -12V, Req = 500 n, and DC = 25%, then P oc =
145 mW. However, if the duty cycle was only 5%,
Poc = 29 mW. Thus to maximize the number of regis·
ters that can be driven by a given clock driver as well as
minimizing average system power, the ,minimum allow·
able clock pulse width should be used for the particular
type of MaS register.

To TO·8 ("G") package is rated at 1.5W still air (derate
at 100°C/W above 25°C) and 2.3W with clip·on heat
sink (Wakefield type 215·1.9 or equivalent·derate at
15 mWfC). Selected for its power handling capability
and moderate cost, this hermetic package will drive very
large systems at the lowest cost per bit.
Additional information is given in ,the section of this
data book on Maximum Power Dissipation (page 2).
Power Dissipation Considerations
The amount of registers that can be driven by a given
clock driver is usually limited first by internal power
dissipation. There are four factors:

From the package heat sink, and maximum ambient

maximum internal power a device can handle and still
operate reliably. The total average power dissipated in a
driver is the sum of dc power and ac power in each
driver times the number of drivers. The total of which
must be less than the package power rating.

Thus, any type of clock driver will dissipate internally
290 mW per MHz per thousand pF of load. At 5 MHz,
this would be 1.5W for a 1000 pF load. For long shift
register applications, the driver with the highest package
power rating will drive the largest number of bits.

Rise Time Considerations

DS0026 Circuit Operation

Predicting the MOS logic rise time (voltage fall) of the
OS0026 is considerably involved, but a reasonable
approximation may be made by utilizing equat~on
(AI·5), which reduces to:
.

The schematic of the OS0026 is shown in FigureAII-l_
The device is typically ac coupled on the input and
responds to input current as does the OS0025. Internal current gain allows the device to be driven by standard TTL gates and flip-flops.

(AII·l)
For CL = 1000 pF, V+ = 5.0V, V- = -12V, tr
Figure A 11-2 shows OS0026 rise times vs C L •

With the TTL input in the low state 01, 02, OS, 06 and
07 are "OFF" allowing 03 and 04 to come "ON." R6
assures that the output will pull up to within a VBE of
V+ volts. When the TTL input starts toward logic "1,"
current is supplied via CI N to the bases of 01 and 02
turning them "ON." Simultaneously, 03 and 04 are
snapped "OFF." As the input voltage rises (to about
1.2V), 05 and 06 turn-on. Multiple emitter transistor
05 provides additional baSe drive to 01 and 02 assuring their complete and rapid turn-on. Since 03 and
04 were rapidly turned "OFF" minimal power supply
current spiking will occur when 07 comes "ON."

06 now provides sufficient base drive to 07 to turn it

toward V-. Oiode 04 affords a low impedance path to

the collectors of 01 and 02 go negative. The output of

The current demanded by the input is in the 5-10 mA
region. A standard 54n4 gate can source currents in
excess of 20 mA into 1.2V. Obviously, the minimum
"1" output voltage of 2.5V under these conditions cannot be maintained. This means that a 54/74 element
must be dedicated to driving 1/2 of a OS0026. As far as
the OS0026 is concerned, the current is the determining
turn-on mechanism not the voltage output level of the
54n4 gate.

A major difference between the OS0025 and OS0026 is
that the OS0026 requires that the output pulse width
be logically controlled. In short, the input pulse width ~
output pulse width. Selection of CIN boils down to
choosing a capacitor small enough to assure the capacitor
takes on nearly full charge, but large enough so that the
input current does not drop below a minimum level to
keep the OS0026 "ON." As before:

INTRODUCTION

The DP840S multi-mode dynamic RAM controller/driver is
the first controller to resolve all of these problems. This
Schottky bipolar device provides the flexibility of external
access control, along with automatic access timing generation, without the need for an external timing generator
clock. In addition, on-board capacitive drivers allow direct
drive for over88 DRAMs. With the simple addition of refresh
clocks, the circuit can perform hidden refresh automatically. But possibly one of the DP840S's most important advantages is its upgradability for use with 256K DRAMs.

The rapid development in dynamic random access memory (DRAM) chip storage capability, coupled with significant component cost reductions, has allowed designers
to build large memory arrays with high performance specifications. However, the development of memory arrays
continues to have a common set of problems generated by
the complex timing and refresh requirements of DRAMs.
These include: how to quickly drive the memories to take
advantage of their speed, minimization of board space required by the support circuitry and the need for error
detection and correction. Unfortunately, these problems
must be addressed with each new system design. Full system solutions will vary greatly, depending on the DRAM array size, memory speed, and the processor.

All Control On-Chip
Figure 1 is a block diagram of the DP840S. The ADS input
strobes the parallel memory address into the row latches
RD-8, the column latches CO-8, and bank select BO and
B1. The nine output drivers may be multiplexed between
the row or column input latches, or the S-bit on-Chip
refresh counter. One of four RAS outputs is selected during an access cycle by setting the bank select inputs BO or
B1. All four RAS outputs are active during refresh. Either
external or automatic control is available on-chip for the
CAS output, while an on-chip buffer is provided to minimize skew associated with WE output generation.

This application note introduces a complete family of
DRAM support circuits that provides a straightforward
solution to the above problems while allowing a high
degree of flexibility in application with little or no performance penalty. The DP8400 family (Table I) includes DRAM
controllers, an expandable error detection/correction circuit, octal address buffers and system control circuits.
The LSI blocks are deSigned with flexible interfaces, making application possible with all existing DRAMs including the recently announced 256Ks. Additionally, interface
is easy to all popular microprocessors with memory word
widths possible from 8 to 80 bits.

All DRAM address and control outputs on the DP840S can
directly drive in excess of 500 pF, or the equivalent of 88
DRAMs (4 banks of 22 DRAMs). All output drivers are
closely matched, significantly reducing output skew.
Each output stage has symmetrical high and low logic
level drive capability, insuring matched rise and fall time
characteristics.

The S multiplexed address outputs and S-bit internal refresh counter of the DP840S not only guarantee its use
with all current DRAMs (16K and 64Ks), but also enable
direct addressing capability for the forthcoming 256K
DRAMs. Careful design of memory boards, using the current 64K DRAMs with the DP840S, will insure direct upgradability to 256K DRAMs. This can be done by simply
allowing for board address extension by two bits and
designing the ninth address trace (08) of the DP840S to
connect to pin 1 of the DRAMs (A8). This is, in general, a
nonconnected pin in 64Ks and the ninth address in 256Ks.
All that need be done is to remove the 64Ks and replace
them with 256Ks, thereby increasing the memory on the
same board by a 4 to 1 ratio. The resulting development
cost saving can be significant.

FULL FUNCTION DRAM CONTROLLER
The heart of any DRAM array design is the controller function. Previous LSI controllers supplied a minimum function of address multiplexing with an on-board refresh
counter. This required external delay line timing and logic
to control memory access, additional logic to perform
memory refresh, and external drivers to drive the capaCitive memory array. The complete solution results in significant access delay in relation to DRAM speeds and skews
in output sequencing, as well as a large component count.

Three mode pins (MO, M1 and M2) offer externally selectable modes of operation, a key reason for the DP840S's application flexibility (Table II). The operational modes are
divided between external and automatic memory control.
Modes 0, 3b, and 4 provide full control of access and
refresh for systems with external memory controllers or
for special purpose applications. Here all timing can be
directly controlled by the external system as shown in
Figure 2.

A previous LSI solution brought much of this logic on-chip.
However, it is limited in application to certain microprocessors and has the disadvantage of all access timing originating from an external clock, whose phase uncertainty
generates a delay in actually knowing when an access has
started.

Modes 1, .5 and 6 provide on-chip automatic access sequencing with hidden refresh capability. A graphic example of the automatic access modes of the DP8409 is
shown in Figure 3. All DRAM access timing and control is
generated from one input strobe, RASIN; no external clock
is required. On-chip delays insure proper address and controi sequencing once the valid parallel address is presen ted to the fall-through input latches of the DP8409.
When the RASIN transitions high-to-Iow, the decoded RAS
output transitions low, strobing the row address into the
DRAM array. An on-chip delay automatically generates a
guaranteec! selectable (mode 5 or 6) row address hold
time. At this pOint, the DPjl409 switches the address outputs from the row latch to the column latch. Then another
on-chip delay generates a gua~anteed column address

Conditions

set-up time before CAS, so that the CAS output automatically strobes the column address Into the DRAM array.
Read or write cycles are controlled by the system through
independent control of the WE buffer that is provided onchip to minimize deiay skewing. The automatic access
mode makes the 'dynamic RAM appear static with respect
to access timing. In this mode, only one Signal, RASIN, is
needed after valid parallel addresses are presented to the
DP8409 to initiate proper access sequencing. Access tlming (RASIN to CAS), with full output loading of 88 DRAMs
in the auto access mode, is determined by the dash number given on the DP8409 data sheet. All performance characteristics are specified over the full operating
temperature and supply ranges.

FIGURE 3. This figure demonstrates the automatic accessing capability of the DP8409. Only one strobing edge, RASIN,
is required for generation of all DRAM access timing signals. This is accomplished with on·chip delay generators,
eliminating the need for external delay lines. No access timing clock is necessary.
