Quad 18V Pin Electronics Driver/Window Comparator
ISL55100B
Features
The ISL55100B is a Quad pin driver and window comparator
fabricated in a wide voltage CMOS process. It is designed
specifically for Test During Burn-In (TDBI) applications, where
cost, functional density and power are all at a premium.
• Low driver output resistance
- ROUT typical: 9.0Ω
• 18V I/O range
• 50MHz operation
This IC incorporates four channels of programmable drivers
and window comparators into a small 72 Ld QFN package.
Each channel has independent driver levels, data and high
impedance control. Each receiver has dual comparators, which
provide high and low threshold levels.
• 4 Channel driver/receiver pairs with per pin flexibility
• Dual level - per pin - input thresholds
• Differential or single-ended digital inputs
• User defined comparator output levels
The ISL55100B uses differential mode digital inputs and can
therefore mate directly with LVDS or CML outputs.
Single-ended logic families are handled by connecting one of
the digital input pins to an appropriate threshold voltage (e.g.,
1.4V for TTL compatibility). The comparator outputs are
single-ended and the output levels are user defined to mate
directly with any digital technology.
• Low channel-to-channel timing skew
• Small footprint (72 Ld QFN)
• Pb-free (RoHS compliant)
Applications
• Burn in ATE
The 18V driver output and receiver input ranges allow this
device to interface directly with TTL, ECL, CMOS (3V, 5V and
7V), LVCMOS and custom level circuitry, as well as the high
voltage (super voltage) level required for many special test
modes for Flash Devices.
• Wafer level flash memory test
• LCD panel test
• Low cost ATE
• Instrumentation
• Emulation
• Device programmers

ISL55100B
Application Information
The ISL55100B provides Quad pin drivers and Quad dual level
comparator receivers in a small footprint. The four channels
may be used as bidirectional or split channels. Drivers have per
channel level, data and high impedance controls, while
comparators have per channel high and low threshold levels.
Receiver Features
The receivers are four independent window comparators that
feature high output current capability and user defined high and
low output levels to interface with a wide variety of logic
families. Each receiver comprises two comparators and each
comparator has an independent threshold level input, making it
easy to implement window comparator functions. The CVA and
CVB pins set the threshold levels of the A and B comparators
respectively. COMP HIGH and COMP LOW set all the comparator
output levels and COMP HIGH must be more positive than COMP
LOW. These two inputs are unbuffered supply pins, so the
sources driving these pins must provide adequate current for the
expected load. COMP HIGH and COMP LOW typically connect to
the power supplies of the logic device driven by the comparator
outputs. The ‘truth table” for the receivers is given on page 3.
Receiver outputs cannot be placed in a HIZ state and do not
incorporate any on-chip short circuit current protection.
Momentary short circuits to GND or any supply voltage, won’t
cause permanent damage, but care must be taken to avoid
longer duration short circuits. If tolerable to the application,
current limiting resistors can be inserted in series with the QA(0-3)
and QB(0-3) outputs to protect the receiver outputs from damage
due to overcurrent conditions.
Driver Features
The drivers are single-ended outputs featuring a wide voltage
range, an output stage capable of delivering 125mA while
providing a low out resistance and HIZ capability. The driver
output can be toggled to drive one of two user defined output
levels High (VH) or Low (VL).
Driver waveforms are greatly affected by load characteristics. The
ISL55100B actually double bonds the VH(0-3) and VL(0-3) supply
pins for each channel. The Driver Output Pins (DOUT(0-3)) are
triple bonded. Multiple bond wires help reduce the effects of
Inductance between the IC Die (Wafer) and the packaging. Also
the QFN style of packaging reduces inductance over other types
of packaging.
While the inductance of a bond wire might seem insignificant, it
can reduce high-frequency waveform fidelity. So this should be
borne in mind when doing PCB layout and DUT interconnect. Lead
lengths should be kept as short as possible, maintaining as much
decoupling on the drive rails as possible and make sure scope
measurements are made properly. Often the inductance of a
scope probe ground can be the actual cause of the waveform
distortion.

VH and VL (Driver Output Rails)
Sets of VH and VL pins are designated for each Driver. These
are unbuffered analog inputs that determine the Drive High
(VH) and Drive Low (VL) Voltages that the drivers will deliver.
These inputs are double bonded to reduce inductance and
decrease AC Impedance.
Each VH and VL should be decoupled with 4.7µF and 0.1µF
capacitors to ground. If all four Driver VH/VLs are bussed, then
one 4.7µF can be used. Layouts should also accommodate the
placement of capacitance “across” VH and VL. So in addition to
decoupling the VH/VL pins to ground, they are also decoupled
to each other.
Logic Inputs
The ISL55100B uses differential mode digital inputs and can
therefore mate directly with LVDS or CML outputs. Single- ended
logic families are handled by connecting one of the digital input
pins to an appropriate threshold voltage (e.g., 1.4V for TTL
compatibility).
LOWSWING Circuit Option
The drivers include switchable circuitry that is optimized for
either low (VH-VL < 3V) or high output swings. Configuring the
part is accomplished via the LOWSWING pin. Connecting
LOWSWING to VEE selects the circuits optimized for low
overshoots at low swing operation. Connecting the pin to VCC
enables the large signal circuitry (see Figure 7).
With LOWSWING = VEE, the low swing circuitry activates
whenever VH < VEE + 5V. Set LOWSWING = VEE only if the
output swing (VH-VL) is less than 3V and better than 10%
overshoots are required.
For the best small (low swing) signal performance, the VH/VL
common mode voltage [(VH + VL)/2] must be VEE + 1.5V. So if
VEE = 0V and the desired swing is 500mV, set VH = 1.75V and
VL = 1.25V.
Driver and Receiver Overload Protection
The ISL55100B is designed to provide minimum and balanced
Driver ROUT. Great care should be taken when making use of
the ISL55100B low ROUT drivers as there is no internal
protection. There is no short circuit protection built into either
the driver or the receiver/comparator outputs. Also there are
no junction temperature monitors or thermal shutdown
features.
The driver or receiver outputs may be damaged by more than a
momentary short circuit directly to any low impedance voltage.
Driver protection can be obtained with a 50Ω series
termination resistor that is properly rated.
External Logic Supply Option (VEXT)
Connection of the VEXT Pin to a 5.5V DC Source (referenced to
VEE) will reduce the VCC-VEE current drain. Current drain is
directly proportional to Data Rate. This option will help with
Power Supply/Dissipation should heat distribution become an
issue.

As with any high frequency device, good printed circuit board
layout is necessary for optimum performance. Ground plane
construction is highly recommended, lead lengths should be
as short as possible and the power supply pins must be well
bypassed to reduce the risk of oscillation. For normal single
supply operation, where the VEE pin is connected to ground,
one 0.1µF ceramic capacitor should be placed from the VCC
pin to ground. A 4.7µF tantalum capacitor should then be
connected from the VCC pin to ground. This same capacitor
combination should be placed at each supply pin to ground if
split supplies are to be used.
Power Dissipation Considerations
Specifying continuous data rates, driver loads and driver level
amplitudes are key in determining power supply requirements
as well as dissipation/cooling necessities. Driver Output
patterns also impact these needs. The faster the pin activity,
the greater the need to supply current and remove heat.
Figures 17 and 18 address power consumption relative to
frequency of operation. These graphs are based on driving
6.0/0.0V out into a 1kΩ load. Theta JA for the device package
is 23.0, 16.6 and 14.9°C/W based on Airflows of 0, 1 and
2.5 meters per second. The device is mounted per Note 4
under “Thermal Information” on page 4. With the high speed
data rate capability of the ISL55100B, it is possible to exceed
the +150°C “absolute maximum junction temperature” as
operating conditions and frequencies increase. Therefore, it is
important to calculate the maximum junction temperature for
the application to determine if operating conditions need to be
modified for the device to remain in the safe operating area.
The maximum power dissipation allowed in a package is
determined according to Equation 1:
T JMAX - T AMAX
P DMAX = -------------------------------------------- JA
(EQ. 1)
junction temperature over the ambient temperature of the
user’s system. Plots indicate temperature change as operating
frequency increases (the graph assumes continuous
operation). The user should evaluate various heat sink/cooling
options in order to control the ambient temperature part of the
equation. This is especially true if the users applications
require continuous, high speed operation.
The reader is cautioned against assuming the same level of
thermal performance in actual applications. A careful
inspection of conditions in your application should be
conducted. Great care must be taken to ensure Die
Temperature does not exceed the +150°C Absolute Maximum
Thermal Limits.
Important Note: The ISL55100B package metal pad (EP) is
used for heat sinking of the device. It is electrically connected
to the negative supply potential (VEE). If VEE is tied to ground,
the thermal pad can be connected to ground. Otherwise, the
thermal pad (VEE) must be isolated from other power planes.
Power Supply Sequencing
The ISL55100B references every supply with respect to VEE.
Therefore apply VEE, then VCC followed by the VH, VL busses,
then the COMP High and Comp Low followed by the CVA and
CVB Supplies. Digital Inputs should be set with a differential
bias as soon as possible. In cases where VEXT is being utilized
(VEXT = VEE + 5.5V), it should be powered up immediately after
VCC. Basically, no pin should be biased above VCC or below VEE.
Data Rates
Please note that the Frequency (MHz) in Figures 17 and 18
contain two transitions within each period. A digital application
that requires a new test pattern every 50ns would be running
at a 20MHz Data Rate. Figure 19 reveals 100ns period, in
10MHz frequency parlance, results in two 50ns digital
patterns.
ESD Protection
Figure 6 is the block diagram depicting the ESD protection
networks.
where:
• TJMAX = Maximum junction temperature
• TAMAX = Maximum ambient temperature
• JA = Thermal resistance of the package
• PDMAX = Maximum power dissipation in the package
The maximum power dissipation actually produced by an IC is the
total quiescent supply current times the total power supply
voltage, plus the power in the IC due to the loads. Power also
depends on number of channels changing state, frequency of
operation. The extent of continuous active pattern
generation/reception will greatly effect dissipation requirements.
The power dissipation curves (Figure 17), provide a way to see
if the device will overheat. The junction temperature rise above
ambient vs operating frequency can be found graphically in
Figure 18. This graph is based on the package type Theta JA
ratings and actual current/wattage requirements of the
ISL55100B when driving a 1k load with a 6V High Level and a
0V Low Rail. The temperatures are indicated as calculated
