These circuits are TTL-compatible, high-speed
line receivers. Each is a monolithic dual circuit
featuring two independent channels. They are
designed for general use, as well as for such
specific applications as data comparators and
balanced, unbalanced, and party-line transmission systems. These devices are unilaterally
interchangeable with and are replacements for
the SN55107, SN75107, and SN75108, but offer
diode-clamped strobe inputs to simplify circuit
design.

NC – No internal connection
The essential difference between the A and B versions can be seen in the schematics. Input-protection diodes
are in series with the collectors of the differential-input transistors of the B versions. These diodes are useful
in certain party-line systems that have multiple VCC + power supplies and can be operated with some of the VCC +
supplies turned off. In such a system, if a supply is turned off and allowed to go to ground, the equivalent input
circuit connected to that supply would be as follows:
Input

A Version
B Version
This would be a problem in specific systems that might have the transmission lines biased to some potential
greater than 1.4 V.
The SN55107A is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of – 55°C to 125°C. The
SN75107A, SN75107B, and SN75108A are characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
basic balanced-line transmission system
The ’107A, SN75107B, and SN75108A dual line devices are designed specifically for use in high-speed
data-transmission systems that utilize balanced terminated transmission lines, such as twisted-pair lines. The
system operates in the balanced mode, so noise induced on one line is also induced on the other. The noise
appears common mode at the receiver input terminals, where it is rejected. The ground connection between
the line driver and receiver is not part of the signal circuit; therefore, system performance is not affected by
circulating ground currents.
The unique driver-output circuit allows terminated transmission lines to be driven at normal line impedances.
High-speed system operation is ensured because line reflections are virtually eliminated when terminated lines
are used. Crosstalk is minimized by low signal amplitudes and low line impedances.
The typical data delay in a system is approximately 30 + 1.3 L ns, where L is the distance in feet separating the
driver and receiver. This delay includes one gate delay in both the driver and receiver.
Data is impressed on the balanced-line system by unbalancing the line voltages with the driver output current.
The driven line is selected by appropriate driver-input logic levels. The voltage difference is approximately:
VDIFF ≈ 1/2IO(on) • RT
High series line resistance causes degradation of the signal. However, the receivers detect signals as low as
25 mV. For normal line resistances, data can be recovered from lines of several thousand feet in length.
Line-termination resistors (RT) are required only at the extreme ends of the line. For short lines, termination
resistors at the receiver only may be adequate. The signal amplitude is then approximately:

data-bus or party-line system
The strobe feature of the receivers and the inhibit feature of the drivers allow these dual line devices to be used
in data-bus or party-line systems. In these applications, several drivers and receivers can share a common
transmission line. An enabled driver transmits data to all enabled receivers on the line while other drivers and
receivers are disabled. Data is time multiplexed on the transmission line. The device specifications allow widely
varying thermal and electrical environments at the various driver and receiver locations. The data-bus system
offers maximum performance at minimum cost.

unbalanced or single-line systems
These dual line circuits also can be used in unbalanced or single-line systems. Although these systems do not
offer the same performance as balanced systems for long lines, they are adequate for very short lines where
environmental noise is not severe.
The receiver threshold level is established by applying a dc reference voltage to one receiver input terminal.
The signal from the transmission line is applied to the remaining input. The reference voltage should be
optimized so that signal swing is symmetrical about it for maximum noise margin. The reference voltage should
be in the range of – 3 V to 3 V. It can be provided by a voltage supply or by a voltage divider from an available
supply voltage.
A single-ended output from a driver can be used in single-line systems. Coaxial or shielded line is preferred for
minimum noise and crosstalk problems. For large signal swings, the high output current (typically 27 mA) of the
SN75112 is recommended. Drivers can be paralleled for higher current. When using only one channel of the
line drivers, the other channel should be inhibited and/or have its outputs grounded.

The SN75108A line receiver features an open-collector-output circuit that can be connected in the dot-AND

increasing common-mode input voltage range of receiver
The common-mode voltage range (CMVR) is defined as the range of voltage applied simultaneously to both
input terminals that, if exceeded, does not allow normal operation of the receiver.
The recommended operating CMVR is ± 3 V, making it useful in all but the noisiest environments. In extremely
noisy environments, common-mode voltage can easily reach ± 10 V to ± 15 V if some precautions are not taken
to reduce ground and power supply noise, as well as crosstalk problems. When the receiver must operate in
such conditions, input attenuators should be used to decrease the system common-mode noise to a tolerable
level at the receiver inputs. Differential noise is also reduced by the same ratio. These attenuators were omitted
intentionally from the receiver input terminals so the designer can select resistors that are compatible with his
particular application or environment. Furthermore, the use of attenuators adversely affects the input sensitivity,
the propagation delay time, the power dissipation, and in some cases (depending on the selected resistor
values) the input impedance; thereby reducing the versatility of the receiver.
The ability of the receiver to operate with approximately ± 15 V common-mode voltage at the inputs has been
checked using the circuit shown in Figure 15. Resistors R1 and R2 provide a voltage-divider network. Dividers
with three different values presenting a 5-to-1 attenuation were used to operate the differential inputs at
approximately ± 3 V common-mode voltage. Careful matching of the two attenuators is needed to balance the
overdrive at the input stage. The resistors used are shown in Table 1.

furnace control using the SN75108A
The furnace control circuit in Figure 18 is an example of the possible use of the SN75108A series in areas other
than what would normally be considered electronic systems. A description of the operation of this control
follows. When the room temperature is below the desired level, the resistance of the room temperature sensor
is high and channel 1 noninverting input is below (less positive than) the reference level set on the input
differential amplifier. This situation causes a low output, operating the heat-on relay and turning on the heat.
The channel 2 noninverting input is below the reference level when the bonnet temperature of the furnace
reaches the desired level. This causes a low output, thus operating the blower relay. Normally the furnace is
shut down when the room temperature reaches the desired level and the channel 1 output goes high, turning
the heat off. The blower remains on as long as the bonnet temperature is high, even after the heat-on relay is
off. There is also a safety switch in the bonnet that shuts down the furnace if the temperature there exceeds
desired limits. The types of temperature-sensing devices and bias-resistor values used are determined by the
particular operating conditions encountered.

repeaters for long lines
In some cases, the driven line may be so long that the noise level on the line reaches the common-mode limits
or the attenuation becomes too large and results in poor reception. In such a case, a simple application of a
receiver and a driver as repeaters [shown in Figure 19(a)] restores the signal level and allows an adequate
signal level at the receiving end. If multichannel operation is desired, then proper gating for each channel must
be sent through the repeater station using another repeater set as in Figure 19(b).

receiver as dual differential comparator
There are many applications for differential comparators, such as voltage comparison, threshold detection,
controlled Schmitt triggering, and pulse-width control.
As a differential comparator, a ’107A or SN75108A can be connected to compare the noninverting input terminal
with the inverting input as shown in Figure 20. The output is high or low, resulting from the A input being greater
or less than the reference. The strobe inputs allow additional control over the circuit so that either output, or both,
can be inhibited.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
temperature controller with zero-voltage switching
The circuit in Figure 22 switches an electric-resistive heater on or off by providing negative-going pulses to the
gate of a triac during the time interval when the line voltage is passing through zero. The pulse generator is the
2N5447 and four diodes. This portion of the circuit provides negative-going pulses during the short time
(approximately 100 µs) when the line voltage is near zero. These pulses are fed to the inverting input of one
channel of the SN75108A. If the room temperature is below the desired level, the resistance of the thermistor
is high and the noninverting input of channel 2 is above the reference level determined by the thermostat setting.
This provides a high-level output from channel 2. This output is ANDed with the positive-going pulses from the
output of channel 1, which are reinverted in the 2N5449.
