Worldwide xDSL Dual Channel Line Driver
BD870 Series
APPLICATIONS
DESCRIPTION
„ Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Loop (ADSL, ADSL+,
The Le87220 device, from the Zarlink Battery Direct™ family
BD870 series devices, integrates two fully differential line
drivers, optimized feed back components, on-chip surge
protection diodes and bias control stages into a small
6 x 6 mm2 QFN package. It contains all the active components
needed to implement ADSL2+ downstream transmitters for two
lines. The Le87220 device is built on Zarlink’s high-voltage
process that allows for direct operation from a standard
telecom, negative battery supply (and a 3.3-V supply). In
contrast, typical line cards today supply the power to the line
drivers locally, via DC-to-DC converter modules. The
elimination of these additional modules translates into cost and
power savings at the system level. Operation from a
centralized source of power makes the Le87220 device a
unique, less costly, more efficient solution for xDSL line driver
applications. The Le87220 device is one of the most costeffective and easy-to-use parts for today’s xDSL applications.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Le87220 device is a low-power, dual xDSL differential line driver. It is part of Zarlink’s family of integrated line drivers capable
of operating from a standard negative battery supply. Its integration of feedback components and on-chip surge protection diodes
makes it one of the most integrated line drivers on the market today.
The Le87220 device was designed on a high voltage, high bandwidth bipolar process in which fast slew rate and low distortion
amplifiers were implemented. It requires one line transformer per line for isolation and for compliance with IEC60950-1, 2001 and
UL60950 standards. The line driver amplifiers in the Le87220 device were designed with an optimized bandwidth for xDSL
applications as well as for fast slew rates of 300 V/µs.
Lightning and Power Surges
The Le87220 device has built-in lightning and power surge protection. When used with the components listed in the PCB Layout,
on page 8, it needs no other external protector to meet the requirements for ADSL line Cards.
Block Description
Refer to the datapath provider for the application circuit.
Downstream Path
The downstream signal is applied at the DDWNP/DDWNN pins, and is amplified by a fixed voltage gain (KDWN) before being
applied to the AY and BY pins. The amplifiers driving the AY and BY pins are DC biased to approximately one-half of the VBAT
pin voltage. The typical differential output voltage swing between AY and BY pins is |VBAT| - 4 V. This allows the use of a stepdown transformer for the line interface.
Control Logic
This block controls the bias currents of the input stage and the bias current of the output amplifiers as described in the Device
Operating Modes section below.
DEVICE OPERATING MODES
The two lines of the Le87220 are completely independent and can be programmed to be in different operating modes. The logic
signal level of pins DISCON1 an Pdown1 controls the operating mode of line 1, the logic signal level of pins DISCON2 and
Pdown2 controls the operating mode of line 2.
Active Mode
In this mode, all stages are biased and operational.
PDown Mode
In this mode, the line driver amplifier’s power consumption is reduced. The Bias current in the output stage drops to almost half
full power stage. The part is ADSL compliant in this stage.
Disconnect Mode
In this mode, the bias is turned OFF to all stages to save power. The device is not operational.

Notes:
1.
Thermal limiting circuitry on chip will shut down the circuit at a junction temperature of about 165°C. Continuous operation above 145°C
junction temperature may degrade device reliability.
2.
The thermal performance of a thermally enhanced package is assured through optimized printed circuit board layout. Specified performance
requires that the exposed thermal pad be soldered to an equally sized exposed copper surface, which, in turn, conducts heat through
multiple vias to a large internal copper plane (See PCB Layout, on page 8.).
Thermal Resistance
The junction to air thermal resistance of the Le87220 device in a 24-pin QFN package is 30°C/W (measured with infinite external
heat sinking). Please refer to Zarlink’s QFN Package application note, available from http://www.zarlink.com , for layout and heat
sinking guidelines.
Package Assembly
The standard (non-green) package devices are assembled with industry-standard mold compounds, and the leads possess a tin/
lead (Sn/Pb) plating. These packages are compatible with conventional SnPb eutectic solder board assembly processes. The
peak soldering temperature should not exceed 225°C during printed circuit board assembly.
The green package devices are assembled with enhanced, environmental compatible lead-free, halogen-free, and antimony-free
materials. The leads possess a matte-tin plating which is compatible with conventional board assembly processes or newer leadfree board assembly processes. The peak soldering temperature should not exceed 245°C during printed circuit board assembly.
Refer to IPC/JEDEC J-Std-020B Table 5-2 for the recommended solder reflow temperature profile.
OPERATING RANGES
Zarlink guarantees the performance of this device over commercial (0°C to 70°C) and industrial (−40°C to 85°C) temperature
ranges by conducting electrical characterization over each range and by conducting a production test with single insertion coupled
with periodic sampling. These characterization and test procedures comply with section 4.6.2 of Bellcore GR-357-CORE
Component Reliability Assurance Requirements for Telecommunications Equipment.

The Le87220 is designed to operate with a standard telecom battery. The normal operating voltage of such batteries is -52 V, and
the Le87220 is designed to give optimal performance in terms of power dissipation if used with the provided applications circuit.
However, because the Le87220 is designed on Zarlink’s proprietary high voltage, high bandwidth process, the part will continue
to remain in operation without any degradation in data performance should the battery drop to as low as -42 V, or charge to as
high as -72 V. Should there be a need to operate the part continuously at such voltages, a different applications circuit should be
considered to achieve best power performance. Lower voltage operation can be achieved by adding a buck-boost regulator.
The Le87220 is designed to operate with the T1.315 specified telecom battery, without any need for changes in the reference
design.

PCB Layout
The Le87220 device contains high gain and high bandwidth amplifiers. The amplifier inputs of each line are connected to the
DDWNP/DDWNN pins, the output are connected to the AY and BY pins. To prevent coupling of the high level output signals into
the low level DDWNP/DDWNN pins, PCB tracks and components connected to AY, BY, and going to the TIP (A) and RING (B)
terminals must be well separated from tracks connected to DDWNP/DDWNN pins. The components C1, C2, R1, R10, and R11
(and the corresponding components of line 2) should be as close as practical to DDWNP/DDWNN pins. The Le87220 device
provides an analog ground pin (AGND) as a return for low level currents and a battery ground pin (BGND) as a return for high
level currents.
The differential drivers of the Le87220 device do not produce any load current into the AGND leads, but the amplifier currents are
still circulating in the VBAT and BGND pins. A bypass capacitor between VBAT and BGND is required to be close to the device.
AGND and BGND tracks should only be tied together at a single point, close to the power connector of the card.
The Le87220 device uses a thermally enhanced package equipped with an exposed pad on the bottom side. The printed circuit
board surface must have a copper pad covering the full surface of the thermal pad. The copper pad must be fitted with a minimum
of 16 thermal transfer vias on a 1 mm pitch with a via diameter of 0.3 to 0.33 mm, and be connected to a large internal copper
plane for proper heat dissipation. The AGND plane is recommended. The thermal transfer vias should be connected to the
thermal pad and to the AGND plane without thermal relieve tracks. The AGND plane should be the second layer from the top of
the PCB for the best power dissipation.
In multi-line applications, the Le87220 devices must be positioned in the layout to ensure a minimum distance of 1 inch (center
to center) between devices. Passive non-heat producing components can be placed between the Le87220 devices.

DEVICE OPERATIONAL NOTES
Power Supplies
The Le87220 device is implemented in a high-voltage process that allows direct powering from the –42 V to –72 V battery supply
without the need for DC to DC converters. This saves significant power that would otherwise be wasted in the DC to DC converter.
The noise on (referenced to AGND) the battery supply (VBAT pin) and on the +3.3 V supply (VCC pin) should be below the limits
as shown in Figure 1, in order not to affect the data performance.

Line Transformer
A step-down transformer is used to interface the Le87220 device with the TIP (A) and RING (B) line terminals. The transformer
injects the data signal onto the loop and provides dielectric isolation and impedance matching between the loop and the line driver.
The turn ratio of the transformer can be optimized to match the loop signal level to the driver output swing (see Transformer Turns
Ratio, on page 11).

Transformer Turns Ratio
The transformer turns ratio N is restricted by the maximum peak differential signal at AY/BY pins, which must stay within the
Le87220 device's dynamic range. The output voltage range is typically equal to |VBATmin| – 4 V.
The maximum peak voltage (across 100 Ω at TIP (A) and RING (B) leads of a FDM ADSL signal using 224 downstream carriers
for a combined rms power of 19.85 dBm and a peak-to-rms ratio of 5.8) is 36.05 VPP differential. To account for the voltage drop
across ZSEC, this voltage must be scaled up by a factor of 1.086. The required peak differential signal at the AY/BY pins would
be 39.15 VPP or 19.6 VPP per driver if the transformer had a 1:1 turn ratio. Using this information the transformer turns ratio can
be calculated as
V BAT – 4V
N = ----------------------------19.6V
.
The transformer turns ratio for a nominal battery voltage of –52 V is then N=2.45:1.
The Le87220 device is designed to operate with battery voltage in the range of –42 V to –72 V. The data transformer turns ratio
can be optimized for the specific battery voltage range, but the turns ratio must be limited to less than 2.7:1 secondary to primary
(where the primary side is connected to TIP (A) and RING (B)) if 19.85 dBm needs to be produced at the output. This limitation
is imposed by the Le87220 device internal bias levels.
Downstream Filtering
The input differential impedance (RDDWN) of the DDWNP/DDWNN pins can vary by as much as ± 30%, and consequently a lower
value external resistor R1 is used to set the differential input impedance (refer to the data path reference design).
A high-pass filter with a –3 dB corner frequency of
1
f DWNHPF = -------------------------2πR IN C IN
is formed by C1 and C2 in conjunction with RIN to attenuate the low frequency noise of the downstream signal
where
RIN = R10 + R11 + (R1 || RDDWN)
C1 ⋅ C2
C IN = ------------------C1 + C2 .
In addition to rejecting the low frequency signals from the data AFE, the input capacitors also block DC currents from flowing
between DDWNP/DDWNN and the data AFE outputs. With the recommended R1 value of 5.49 kΩ, R10 = R11 = 2.67 kΩ and
C1 = C2 = 1.5 nF provides a corner frequency of around 25 kHz. Resistors R10, R11 and R1 can be used to adjust the downstream
signal level.

RECEIVER AND HYBRID CIRCUIT
The receive and hybrid circuit architecture depends greatly on the data AFE being used in the design. Some data AFEs have
built-in input differential amplifiers for the receive circuits. These amplifiers should be used to implement the receive and hybrid
functions. If the AFE does not have such amplifiers, then external low noise amplifiers are required to implement these functions.
Figure 4 shows a typical implementation of the receive and hybrid functions.

COMPONENTS SELECTION
The DC blocking capacitor C6 is required on the primary or line side of the transformer in order to avoid applying a DC short across
TIP (A) and RING (B) terminals. The value of the line side capacitor depends on transformer primary inductance chosen to give
desired –3 dB high pass point. According to T1.413, the impedance measured across TIP (A) and RING (B) at 4 kHz must be
greater than 1100 Ω, which requires a capacitance of less than 35 nF for the series combination of C6 and any external DC
blocking capacitor.
The minimum transformer primary inductance required is dictated by the low end of the upstream frequency band, which is
typically around 25-30 kHz. Since the transformer primary inductance shunts the line, it should be relatively high to avoid signal
attenuation and maintain an acceptable match across the desired bandwidth. A high impedance can be obtained by using a
transformer with a high primary side inductance while maintaining relatively low DC resistance for minimum insertion loss.
Besides using it for its isolation and high common-mode rejection it is also used as part of the high-pass splitter function.
If the -3 dB point is chosen to be around 20 kHz, the minimum primary (line side) inductance required would be
