description
The SN74GTLP1394 is a high-drive, 2-bit, 3-wire bus transceiver that provides LVTTL-to-GTLP and
GTLP-to-LVTTL signal-level translation. It allows for transparent and inverted transparent modes of data
transfer with separate LVTTL input and LVTTL output pins, which provides a feedback path for control and
diagnostics monitoring. The device provides a high-speed interface between cards operating at LVTTL logic
levels and a backplane operating at GTLP signal levels, and is especially designed to work with the
Texas Instruments 1394 backplane physical-layer controllers. High-speed (about three times faster than
standard LVTTL or TTL) backplane operation is a direct result of GTLP reduced output swing (<1 V), reduced
input threshold levels, improved differential input, OEC circuitry, and TI-OPC circuitry. Improved GTLP OEC
and TI-OPC circuitry minimizes bus-settling time and have been designed and tested using several backplane
models. The high drive allows incident-wave switching in heavily loaded backplanes with equivalent load
impedance down to 11 Ω.
GTLP is the Texas Instruments (TI) derivative of the Gunning Transceiver Logic (GTL) JEDEC standard
JESD 8-3. The ac specification of the SN74GTLP1394 is given only at the preferred higher noise margin GTLP,
but the user has the flexibility of using this device at either GTL (VTT = 1.2 V and VREF = 0.8 V) or GTLP
(VTT = 1.5 V and VREF = 1 V) signal levels.
Normally, the B port operates at GTLP signal levels. The A-port and control inputs operate at LVTTL logic levels,
but are 5-V tolerant and are compatible with TTL and 5-V CMOS inputs. VREF is the B port differential input
reference voltage.

SCES286E – OCTOBER 1999 – REVISED AUGUST 2001
description (continued)
This device is fully specified for live-insertion applications using Ioff, power-up 3-state, and BIAS VCC. The Ioff
circuitry disables the outputs, preventing damaging current backflow through the device when it is powered
down. The power-up 3-state circuitry places the outputs in the high-impedance state during power up and power
down, which prevents driver conflict. The BIAS VCC circuitry precharges and preconditions the B-port
input/output connections, preventing disturbance of active data on the backplane during card insertion or
removal, and permits true live-insertion capability.
This GTLP device features TI-OPC circuitry, which actively limits the overshoot caused by improperly
terminated backplanes, unevenly distributed cards, or empty slots during low-to-high signal transitions. This
improves signal integrity, which allows adequate noise margin to be maintained at higher frequencies.
High-drive GTLP backplane interface devices feature adjustable edge-rate control (ERC). Changing the ERC
input voltage between GND and VCC adjusts the B-port output rise and fall times. This allows the designer to
optimize system data-transfer rate and signal integrity to the backplane load.
When VCC is between 0 and 1.5 V, the device is in the high-impedance state during power up or power down.
However, to ensure the high-impedance state above 1.5 V, the output-enable (OE) input 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.

functional description
The output-enable (OEAB) input controls the activity of the B port. When OEAB is low, the B-port outputs are
active. When OEAB is high, the B-port outputs are disabled.
Separate LVTTL input and output pins provide a feedback path for control and diagnostics monitoring. The
OEBY input controls the Y outputs. When OEBY is low, the Y outputs are active. When OEBY is high, the
Y outputs are disabled.
The polarity-control (T/C) input is provided to select polarity of data transmission in both directions. When T/C
is high, data transmission is true, and A data goes to the B bus and B data goes to the Y bus. When T/C is low,
data transmission is complementary, and inverted A data goes to the B bus and inverted B data goes to the
Y bus.

NOTES: 4. All unused 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.
5. Proper connection sequence for use of the B-port I/O precharge feature is GND and BIAS VCC = 3.3 V first, I/O second, and
VCC = 3.3 V last, because the BIAS VCC precharge circuitry is disabled when any VCC pin is connected. The control and VREF inputs
can be connected anytime, but normally are connected during the I/O stage. If B-port precharge is not required, any connection
sequence is acceptable, but generally, GND is connected first.
6. VTT and RTT can be adjusted to accommodate backplane impedances if the dc recommended IOL ratings are not exceeded.
7. VREF can be adjusted to optimize noise margins, but normally is two-thirds VTT. TI-OPC circuitry is enabled in the A-to-B direction
and is activated when VTT > 0.7 V above VREF. If operated in the A-to-B direction, VREF should be set to within 0.6 V of VTT to
minimize current drain.

DISTRIBUTED-LOAD BACKPLANE SWITCHING CHARACTERISTICS
The preceding switching characteristics table shows the switching characteristics of the device into a lumped load
(Figure 1). However, the designer’s backplane application probably is a distributed load. The physical representation
is shown in Figure 2. This backplane, or distributed load, can be approximated closely to a resistor inductance
capacitance (RLC) circuit, as shown in Figure 3. This device has been designed for optimum performance in this RLC
circuit. The following switching characteristics table shows the switching characteristics of the device into the RLC
load, to help the designer better understand the performance of the GTLP device in this typical backplane. See

2-BIT LVTTL-TO-GTLP ADJUSTABLE-EDGE-RATE BUS TRANSCEIVER
WITH SPLIT LVTTL PORT, FEEDBACK PATH, AND SELECTABLE POLARITY
SCES286E – OCTOBER 1999 – REVISED AUGUST 2001
APPLICATION INFORMATION
operational description
The GTLP1394 is specifically designed for use with the Texas Instruments 1394 backplane layer controller
family to transmit the 1394 backplane serial bus across parallel backplanes. But, it is a versatile 2-bit device
that also is being used to provide multiple single-bit clocks or ATM read and write clock in multislot parallel
backplane applications.
The 1394–1995 is an IEEE designation for a high-performance serial bus. This serial bus defines both a
backplane (e.g., GTLP, VME, FB+, CPCI, etc.) physical layer and a point-to-point cable-connected virtual bus.
The backplane version operates at 25, 50, or 100 Mbps, whereas the cable version supports data rates of 100,
200, and 400 Mbps. Both versions are compatible at the link layer and above. The interface standard defines
the transmission method, media in the cable version, and protocol. The primary application of the cable version
is the interconnection of digital A/V equipment and integration of I/O connectivity at the back panel of personal
computers using a low-cost, scalable, high-speed serial interface. The primary application of the backplane
version is to provide a robust control interface to each daughter card. The 1394 standard also provides new
services such as real-time I/O and live connect/disconnect capability for external devices.
electrical
The 1394 standard is a transaction-based packet technology for cable- or backplane-based environments. Both
chassis and peripheral devices can use this technology. The 1394 serial bus is organized as if it were memory
space interconnected between devices, or as if devices resided in slots on the main backplane. Device
addressing is 64 bits wide, partitioned as ten bits for bus ID, six bits for node ID, and 48 bits for memory
addresses. The result is the capability to address up to 1023 buses, with each having up to 63 nodes, each with
281 terabytes of memory. Memory-based addressing, rather than channel addressing, views resources as
registers or memory that can be accessed with processor-to-memory transactions. Each bus entity is termed
a unit, to be individually addressed, reset, and identified. Multiple nodes can physically reside in a single module,
and multiple ports can reside in a single node.
Some key features of the 1394 topology are multimaster capabilities, live connect/disconnect (hot plugging)
capability, genderless cabling connectors on interconnect cabling, and dynamic node address allocation as
nodes are added to the bus. A maximum of 63 nodes can be connected to one network.
The cable-based physical interface uses dc-level line states for signaling during initialization and arbitration.
Both environments use dominant mode addresses for arbitration. The backplane environment does not have
the initialization requirements of the cable environment because it is a physical bus and does not contain
repeaters. Due to the differences, a backplane-to-cable bridge is required to connect these two environments.
The signals transmitted on both the cable and backplane environments are NRZ with data-strobe (DS)
encoding. DS encoding allows only one of the two signal lines to change each data bit-period, essentially
doubling the jitter tolerance with very little additional circuitry overhead in the hardware.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
protocol
Both asynchronous and isochronous data transfers are supported. The asynchronous format transfers data and
transaction-layer information to an explicit address. The isochronous format broadcasts data based on channel
numbers rather than specific addressing. Isochronous packets are issued on the average of each 125 µs in
support of time-sensitive applications. Providing both asynchronous and isochronous formats on the same
interface allows both non-real-time and real-time critical applications on the same bus. The cable environment’s
tree topology is resolved during a sequence of events, triggered each time a new node is added or removed
from the network. This sequence starts with a bus reset phase, where previous information about a topology
is cleared. The tree ID sequence determines the actual tree structure, and a root node is dynamically assigned,
or it is possible to force a particular node to become the root. After the tree is formed, a self-ID phase allows
each node on the network to identify itself to all other nodes. During the self-ID process, each node is assigned
an address. After all the information has been gathered on each node, the bus goes into an idle state, waiting
for the beginning of the standard arbitration process.
The backplane physical layer shares some commonality with the cable physical layer. Common functions
include: bus state determination, bus access protocols, encoding and decoding functions, and synchronization
of received data to a local clock.

The 1394 backplane physical layer (PHY) and the SN74GTLP1394 provide a cost-effective way to add
high-speed 1394 connections to every daughter card in almost any backplane. More information on the
backplane physical layer devices and how to implement the 1394 standard in backplane and cable applications
