® DRV1100 DR OPVA1100 658 DRV 110 0 HIGH POWER DIFFERENTIAL DRIVER AMPLIFIER FEATURES DESCRIPTION ● ● ● ● The DRV1100 is fixed gain differential line driver designed for very low harmonic distortion at the high powers required of xDSL line interface standards. Operating on a single +5V supply, it can deliver 230mA peak output current and 9.5Vp-p differential output voltage swing. This high output power on a single +5V supply makes the DRV1100 an excellent choice for the xDSL applications that require up to 17dBm power onto the line with high crest factors.

Operating on a single +5V power supply, it provides an internally fixed differential gain of +3 and a common-mode gain of +1 from the input to output. Fabricated on an advanced CMOS process, it offers very high input impedance along with a low impedance 230mA output drive. Figure 1 shows a simplified internal block diagram.

Squaring 1/2 of the Vp-p and dividing by the load will give the peak power. For example, the Typical Performance Curves show that on +5V supply the DRV1100 will deliver 6.8Vp-p into 15Ω at 500kHz. The peak load power under this condition is (6.8Vp-p/2)2/15Ω = 770mW. Out– In– FIGURE 1. Simplified DRV1100 Internal Block Diagram. SUPPLY VOLTAGE The DRV1100 is designed for operation on a single +5V supply. For loads > 200Ω, each output will swing rail to rail. This gives a peak-to-peak differential output swing that is approximately = 2 • VDD. For best distortion performance, the power supply should be decoupled to a good ground plane immediately adjacent to the package with a 0.1µF capacitor. In addition, a larger electolytic supply decoupling capacitor (6.8µF) should be near the package but can be shared among multiple devices. To achieve the maximum dynamic range, operate the DRV1100 with the inputs centered at VDD / 2. This will place the output differential swing centered at VDD /2 for maximum swing and lowest distortion. Purely differential input signals will produce a purely differential output signal. A single ended input signal, applied to one input of the DRV1100, with the other input at a fixed voltage, will produce both a differential and common-mode output signal. This is an acceptable mode of operation when the DRV1100 is driving an element with good common-mode rejection (such as a transformer). DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER LINE APPLICATIONS The DRV1100 is particularly suited to the high power, low distortion, requirements of a twisted pair driver in digital communications applications. These include HDSL (High bit rate Digital Subscriber Lines), ADSL (Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Lines), and RADSL (Rate adaptive ADSL). Figure 3 shows a typical transformer coupled xDSL line driver configuration. In general, the DRV1100 is usable for output power requirements up to 17dBm with a crest factor up to 6 (crest factor is the ratio of peak to rms voltage). DIFFERENTIAL OUTPUT VOLTAGE AND POWER Applying the balanced differential output voltage of the DRV1100 to a load between the outputs will produce a peakto-peak voltage swing that is twice the swing of each individual output. This is illustrated in Figure 2 where the common-mode voltage is VDD / 2. For a load connected between the outputs, the only voltage that matters is the differential voltage between the two outputs—the commonmode voltage does not produce any load current in this case. To calculate the required amplifier power for an xDSL application— The peak power that the DRV1100 can deliver into a differential load is VP2/ RL. The Typical Performance Curves show the maximum Vp-p versus load and frequency. The peak voltage (Vp) equals 1/2 of the peak-to-peak voltage • Determine the average power required onto the line in the particular application. The DRV1100 must be able to deliver twice this power (+3dB) to account for the power ® 7 DRV1100 +5V Protection Circuits DRV1100 Out+ 4Ω In+ Line Impedance 4Ω In– 135Ω Out– 1:4 Transformer GND FIGURE 3. Typical Digital Subscriber Line Application. loss through the series impedance matching resistors shown in Figure 3. Twice the required line power must be delivered by the DRV1100 through the frequency band of interest with the distortion required by the system. ground or to the supply without damage. The outputs are not, however, designed for a continuous short to ground or the supply. • Calculate the RMS voltage required at the output of the DRV1100 with this 2X line power requirement. Vrms = (2 • PLINE • RL)1/2, where RL is the total load impedance that the DRV1100 must drive. Multiply this Vrms by 2 • crest factor to get the total required differential peak-topeak voltage at the output. The DRV1100 must be able to drive the peak-to-peak differential voltage into the load impedance. POWER DISSIPATION AND THERMAL ANALYSIS The total internal power dissipation of the DRV1100 is the sum of a quiescent term and the power dissipated internally to deliver the load power. The Typical Performance Curves show the quiescent current over temperature. At +5V supply, the typical no load supply current of 11mA will dissipate 55mW quiescent power. The rms power dissipated in the output circuit to deliver a Vrms to a load RL is: Where possible, the transformer turns ratio may be adjusted to keep within the DRV1100 output voltage and current constraints for a given RLINE and desired power onto the line. Prms = (VDD – Vrms) • (Vrms/RL) The internal power dissipation will reach a maximum when Vrms is equal to VDD /2. For a sinusoidal output, this corresponds to an output Vp-p = 1.41 • VDD. Using the example of Figure 3, assume the average power desired on a 135Ω line is 14dBm (HDSL). Twice this power (17dBm) is required into the matching resistors on the primary side of the transformer. This 135Ω load is reflected through the 1:4 transformer as a (135/(42)) = 8.4Ω load. The two series 4.1Ω resistors, along with the 0.2Ω differential output impedance of the DRV1100, will provide impedance matching into this 8.4Ω load. The DRV1100 will see approximately a 16.5Ω load under these conditions. The required 17dBm (50mW) into this load will need an output Vrms = (50mW • 16.5)1/2 = 0.91Vrms. Assuming a crest factor of 3, the differential peak-to-peak output voltage = 6 • 0.91 = 5.45Vp-p. The Typical Performance Curves show that, at 100kHz, the DRV1100 can deliver this voltage swing with less than –62dB THD. As an example, compute the power and junction temperature under a worst case condition with VDD = +5V and Vrms = 2.5V into a 16Ω differential load (peak output current for a sinusoid would be 222mA). The total internal power dissipation would be: (5V • 11mA) + (5V – 2.5V) • (2.5V/16Ω) = 446mW To compute the internal junctions temperature, this power is multiplied by the junction to ambient thermal impedance (to get the temperature rise above ambient) then added to the ambient temperature. Using the specified maximum ambient temperature of +85°C, the junction temperature for the DRV1100 in an SO-8 package under these worst case conditions will be: OUTPUT PROTECTION Figure 3 also shows overvoltage and short circuit protection elements that are commonly included in xDSL applications. Overvoltage suppressors include diodes or MOV’s. The outputs of the DRV1100 can be momentarily shorted to TJ = 85°C + 0.446W • 125°C/W = 141°C ® DRV1100 8 Often, the RB resistors will be set to a relatively high value (> 10kΩ) to minimize quiescent current in the reference path. If a lower input impedance is desired, additional terminating resistors may be added to the input side of the blocking capacitors (CB). INTERNAL TEMPERATURE RISE OF DRV1100 IN SOIC 90 80 Limit at 85°C Ambient Temperature Rise 70 The circuit of Figure 5 may also be operated with only a single ended input. In that case, the reference voltage on the other input should be decoupled to ground with a 0.1µF capacitor. In this connection, the input will generate unbalanced outputs. The differential output voltage will still be 3 times the input peak-to-peak voltage, but since there is now a common-mode voltage input, there will be a common mode voltage output. The output common-mode voltage will be equal to the input signal’s peak-to-peak swing. This common-mode component will reduce the available differential output voltage swing. However, if the output load has good common-mode rejection, such as a transformer, this is an acceptable way of using the DRV1100 with a single ended source. 60 50 RL = 15Ω 40 30 20 RL = 100Ω 10 0 0 0.5 1 2 1.5 2.5 3 3.5 Load Voltage (rms) FIGURE 4. Junction Temperature Rise From Ambient for the DRV1100U. The internal junction temperature should, in all cases, be limited to < 150°C. For a maximum ambient temperature of +85°C, this limits the internal temperature rise to less than 65°C. Figure 4 shows the temperature rise from ambient to junction for loads of 15Ω and 100Ω. This shows that the internal junction temperature will never exceed the rated maximum for a 15Ω load. Figure 6 shows a means of translating a ground centered single ended input to a purely differential signal for application to DRV1100 input. This circuit uses a wideband dual op amp in cross coupled feedback configuration. The outputs of this circuit may then be fed into the inputs of Figure 5. The total gain of Figure 6 is 2 • (RF / RG ). The circuit will act to hold all 4 op amp inputs equal to the + input of the lower op amp. Since this is at ground, the midpoint for the input signal (where the two outputs will be equal) is also at 0V. INPUT INTERFACE CIRCUITS Best performance with the DRV1100 is achieved with a differential input centered at VDD /2. Signals that do not require DC coupling may be connected as shown in Figure 5 through blocking caps to a midpoint reference developed through resistor dividers from the supply voltage.
