DESCRIPTION
The 'GTL16612A devices are 18-bit universal bus transceivers (UBT) that provide LVTTL-to-GTL+ and
GTL+-to-LVTTL signal-level translation. They allow for transparent, latched, clocked, or clock-enabled modes of
data transfer. These devices provide a high-speed interface between cards operating at LVTTL logic levels and
backplanes operating at GTL+ signal levels. High-speed (about two times faster than standard LVTTL or TTL)
backplane operation is a direct result of the reduced output swing (<1 V), reduced input threshold levels, and
output edge control (OEC™). Improved GTL+ OEC circuits minimize bus settling time and have been designed
and tested using several backplane models.
Figure 1 shows actual device output waveforms using a synchronous clock at 75 MHz. The test backplane is a
16-slot, 14-inch board with loaded impedance of 33 Ω. VTT is 1.5 V, VREF is 1 V, and RTT pullup resistor is 50 Ω.
The driver is in slot 8, with receivers in alternate slots 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 12, 14, and 16. Receiver slot-1 signals are
shown. The signal becomes progressively worse as the receiver moves closer to the driver or the spacing
between receiver cards is reduced. The clock is independent of the data, and the system clock frequency is
limited by the backplane flight time to about 80-90 MHz. This frequency can be increased even more (30% to
40%) if the clock is generated and transmitted together with the data from the driver card (source synchronous).

GTL+ is the Texas Instruments (TI™) derivative of the Gunning transceiver logic (GTL) JEDEC standard
JESD 8-3. The AC specification of the 'GTL16612A is given only at the preferred higher noise margin GTL+, but
this device can be used at either GTL (VTT = 1.2 V and VREF = 0.8 V) or GTL+ (VTT = 1.5 V and VREF = 1 V)
signal levels.
The B port normally operates at GTL or GTL+ levels, while the A-port and control inputs are compatible with
LVTTL logic levels and are 5-V tolerant. VREF is the reference input voltage for the B port.
To improve signal integrity, the 'GTL16612A B-port output transition time is optimized for distributed backplane
loads.
VCC (5 V) supplies the internal and GTL circuitry, while VCC (3.3 V) supplies the LVTTL output buffers.
Data flow in each direction is controlled by output-enable (OEAB and OEBA), latch-enable (LEAB and LEBA),
and clock (CLKAB and CLKBA) inputs. The clock or latch enable can be controlled by the clock-enable (CEAB
and CEBA) inputs. For A-to-B data flow, the devices operate in the transparent mode when LEAB is high. When
LEAB is low, the A data is latched if CEAB is low and CLKAB is held at a high or low logic level. If LEAB is low,
the A data is stored in the latch/flip-flop on the low-to-high transition of CLKAB if CEAB also is low. When OEAB
is low, the outputs are active. When OEAB is high, the outputs are in the high-impedance state. Data flow for B
to A is similar to that for A to B, but uses OEBA, LEBA, CLKBA, and CEBA.
To ensure the high-impedance state during power up or power down, OE should be tied to VCC through a pullup
resistor; the minimum value of the resistor is determined by the current-sinking capability of the driver.
Active bus-hold circuitry holds unused or undriven LVTTL inputs at a valid logic state. Use of pullup or pulldown
resistors with the bus-hold circuitry is not recommended.
These devices are fully specified for partial-power-down applications using Ioff. The Ioff circuitry disables the
outputs, preventing damaging current backflow through the devices when they are powered down.
The SN54GTL16612A is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of –55°C to 125°C.
The SN74GTL16612A is characterized for operation from –40°C to 85°C.

Stresses beyond those listed under "absolute maximum ratings" may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under "recommended operating
conditions" is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
The input and output negative-voltage ratings may be exceeded if the input and output clamp-current ratings are observed.
This current flows only when the output is in the high state and VO > VCC.
The package thermal impedance is calculated in accordance with JESD 51.

All unused control inputs of the device must be held at VCC or GND to ensure proper device operation. Refer to the TI application report
Implications of Slow or Floating CMOS Inputs, literature number SCBA004.
Normal connection sequence is GND first, VCC = 5 V second, and VCC = 3.3 V, I/O, control inputs, VTT, and VREF (any order) last.
VTT and RTT can be adjusted to accommodate backplane impedances as long as they do not exceed the DC absolute IOL ratings.
Similarly, VREF can be adjusted to optimize noise margins, but normally is 2/3 VTT.

SCES187D – JANUARY 1999 – REVISED JULY 2005
APPLICATION INFORMATION
GTL Background Information
GTL was approved as JEDEC standard JESD 8-3 in 1993 and originally was created as a reduced-swing I/O
driver technology to support high-speed buses and backplanes. The GTL bus is designed to work with low
voltage swings. The input buffer works like an analog comparator rather than like an inverter, which allows the
GTL inputs to switch quickly without needing to be driven rail to rail. GTL drivers were designed to pull a 1.2-V
signal down to 0.4 V when switched on. This, however, placed the reference voltage for the input comparator at
0.8 V, which made it susceptible to ground-bounce noise. A variant of GTL, called GTL+, is being used to
address this noise-margin concern. The GTL+ termination voltage is raised to 1.5 V, with the driver pulling down
to a VOL of 0.5 V. This moved the reference voltage to 1 V and out of the range of most ground bounces.
TI GTL devices operate at, and are specified for, both GTL and the improved-noise-margin GTL+ standard.
However, the 'GTL16612A devices deviate from this history. They are designed with slow rising and falling
edges, to offer significant system frequency improvement in heavily loaded backplanes. They are AC specified
only at GTL+ because most applications are moving to this improved-noise-margin standard; they operate at
either GTL or GTL+.
Devices named GTL or GTLP indicate reduced voltage-swing operation at a VTT of 1.2 V (GTL standard) or 1.5 V
(improved-noise-margin GTL+ standard). Fast-edge GTL devices are best for point-to-point or lower-frequency
backplanes. Slow-edge GTL devices extend backplane operations to cover even higher frequencies.
Input Characteristics
The input characteristics are identical on both A and B ports. Both ports are very high impedance and have an
input diode to provide protection against high negative-voltage spikes. The input diode conducts and prevents
more sensitive components from being destroyed as the result of electrostatic discharges or line reflections.
GTL Output Characteristics
The principle of the GTL bus is based on open-drain drivers, as shown in Figure 3.

Figure 3. GTL Bus: An Open-Drain Bus
The devices actively drive the bus low, whereas, the termination voltage source (VTT) pulls it high. Only the
pullup resistor (RTT), which usually is of a low resistance, limits the current. The pullup resistor value should
match the fully loaded backplane impedance, not the trace impedance, to provide an optimum termination of the
bus and avoid line reflections. The resistance of the GTL output is in the range of a few ohms. However, in the
high state, the output transistor is in the high-impedance state. RTT needs to be greater than 25 Ω at GTL+ signal
levels, not to exceed the 'GTL16612A absolute maximum output current of 80 mA, and should be greater than 50
Ω at GTL+ signal levels, not to exceed the recommended output current limit of 34 mA.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
OEC
The 'GTL16612A GTL output consists of an improved edge-control circuit that provides optimized rise and fall
times, typically 2.6 ns (20% to 80%), for backplanes under various loading conditions.
Using the definition of slew rate ∆t/∆v = tr or tf/(VOH – VOL), the slew rate of the device typically is 5 ns/V. As a
comparison, these values are significantly more than those of previous GTL or standard TTL devices, which are
usually about 1 ns/V, or less.
Termination Voltage, VTT
The termination voltage (VTT) should be derived from a voltage regulator that can provide up to 50-mA current
per signal line. There are various voltage regulators that meet these requirements. Depending on the application,
the regulators should be mounted either directly on the backplane or on the daughter boards. It is highly
recommended that ceramic bypass capacitors be used (due to high impedance) at the termination resistors
because several signal lines may be switching simultaneously, causing considerable current fluctuations at the
termination voltage.
Reference Voltage, VREF
The GTL reference voltage (VREF) can be derived using a simple voltage divider between VTT and GND with an
R-to-2R ratio and a bypass capacitor (0.01–0.1 µF) as close to the VREF terminal as possible (see Figure 4).
Generating VREF from VTT ensures the maximum possible signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) even with an unstable
termination voltage. It also is recommended to generate VREF locally on each plug-in card, instead of on the
backplane.

Partial Power Down
Device power can be switched off without having to remove the device from the system. This is a partial power
down. 'GTL16612A can be used in a partial-power-down application where VCC = 0 because the inputs and
outputs are at high impedance and are able to tolerate active bus signals. This is reflected in the Ioff parameter,
which specifies the maximum input or output leakage current.
Bus-Hold Circuit
Bus hold on A-port inputs (LVTTL side) prevents any unused or floating inputs from damaging the device. To
change the logic state stored by the bus-hold circuit, a current of about 250-300 µA must be overridden. There is
no bus hold on the B port (GTL side). A bus-hold circuit on the GTL side would defeat the purpose of the
open-drain outputs, which take on the high-impedance state to allow the bus to achieve a logic high state via the
pullup resistors.

Source-Synchronous Clock Applications
When the clock originates at the driver card and is carried out with the data, the backplane maximum frequency
can be achieved. This is possible because the backplane flight time no longer is the limiting factor.
