NSC DS3885

DS3885 BTL Arbitration Transceiver
General Description
Features
The DS3885 is one in a series of transceivers designed specifically for the implementation of high performance Futurebus a and proprietary bus interfaces. The DS3885 Arbitration Transceiver is designed to conform to IEEE 1194.1
(Backplane Transceiver LogicÐBTL) as specified in the
IEEE 896.2 Futurebus a specification. The Arbitration
Transceiver incorporates the competition logic internally
which simplifies the implementation of a Futurebus a application by minimizing the on board logic required.
The DS3885 driver output configuration is an NPN open collector which allows Wired-OR connection on the bus. Each
driver output incorporates a Schottky diode in series with its
collector to isolate the transistor output capacitance from
the bus thus reducing the bus loading in the inactive state.
The BTL drivers also have high sink current capability to
comply with the bus loading requirements defined within
IEEE 1194.1 BTL specification.
Backplane Transceiver Logic (BTL) is a signaling standard
that was invented and first introduced by National Semicon(Continued)

General Description (Continued)
The DS3885 has two types of power connections in addition
to the LI pin. They are the Logic VCC (VCC) and the Quiet
VCC (QVCC). There are two VCC pins on the DS3885 that
provide the supply voltage for the logic and control circuitry.
Multiple power pins reduce the effects of package inductance and thereby minimize switching noise. As these pins
are common to the VCC bus internal to the device, a voltage
difference should never exist between these pins and the
voltage difference between VCC and QVCC should never
exceed g 0.5V because of ESD circuitry.
Additionally, the ESD circuitry between the VCC pins and all
other pins except for BTL I/O’s and LI pins requires that any
voltage on these pins should not exceed the voltage on VCC
a 0.5V
There are three different types of ground pins on the
DS3885. They are the logic ground (GND), BTL grounds
(AB0GND – AB7GND/ABPGND) and the Bandgap reference ground (QGND). All of these reference pins are isolated within the chip to minimize the effects of high current
switching transients. For optimum performance the QGND
should be returned to the connector through a quiet channel
that does not carry transient switching current. The GND
and AB0GND – AB7GND/ABPGND should be connected to
the nearest backplane ground pin with the shortest possible
path.
Since many different grounding schemes could be implemented and ESD circuitry exists on the DS3885, it is important to note that any voltage difference between ground
pins, QGND, GND or AB0GND – AB7GND and ABPGND
should not exceed g 0.5V including power-up/down sequencing.
Three additional transceivers are included in the Futurebus a family. They are the DS3883A BTL 9-bit Transceiver.
The DS3884A BTL Handshake Transceiver features selectable Wired-OR glitch filtering. The DS3886A BTL 9-bit
Latching Data Transceiver contains edge triggered latches
in the driver which may be bypassed during a fall-through
mode. In addition, the device contains a transparent latch in
the receiver section.
The DS3875 Arbitration Controller included in the Futurebus a family supports all the required and optional modes
for Futurebus a arbitration protocol. It is designed to be
used in conjunction with the DS3884A and DS3885 transceivers.
The LOGICAL INTERFACE FUTUREBUS a ENGINE (LIFE)
is a high performance Futurebus a Protocol Controller designed for IEEE 896.1. The LIFE will handle all handshaking
signals between the Futurebus a and the local bus interface. The Protocol Controller supports the Futurebus a
compelled mode data transfer as both master and slave.
The Protocol Controller can be configured to operate in
compliance to IEEE 896.2 Profile B mode. The LIFE incorporates a DMA controller and 64-bit FIFO’s for fast queuing.
All of the transceivers are offered in 44-pin PLCC and PQFP
high density package styles.
ductor, then developed by the IEEE to enhance the performance of backplane buses. BTL compatible transceivers
feature low output capacitance drivers to minimize bus loading, a 1V nominal signal swing for reduced power consumption and receivers with precision thresholds for maximum
noise immunity. BTL eliminates settling time delays that severely limit TTL bus performance, and thus provide significantly higher bus transfer rates. The backplane bus is intended to be operated with termination resistors (selected
to match the bus impedance) connected to 2.1V at both
ends. The low voltage is typically 1V.
Separate ground pins are provided for each BTL output to
minimize induced ground noise during simultaneous switching.
The transceiver’s control and driver inputs are designed
with high impedance PNP input structures and are fully TTL
compatible.
The receiver is a high speed comparator that utilizes a
bandgap reference for precision threshold control allowing
maximum noise immunity to the BTL 1V signaling level.
Separate QVCC and QGND pins are provided to minimize
the effects of high current switching noise. The output is
TRI-STATEÉ and fully TTL compatible.
The signals abk7:0l designate the arbitration bus number
which this transceiver places on the bus. The signal names
ABk7:0l designate the open collector Wired-OR signals
on the backplane bus.
The DS3885 implements an odd parity check on the arbitration bus bits ABk7:0l, with ABP being the parity bit. The
signal PER will indicate the parity check result. For a quick
indication of current bus conditions, the bus status block
generates ALL1 (all asserted) status when all bits
(ABk7:0l) are asserted by any module. This signal is used
by the DS3875 Arbitration Controller to detect the Arbitration message number (during phase 1) or the powerfail message number (during phase 2).
To latch the arbitration number into the transceiver, it is
placed onto the CNk7:0l port, and the CNÐLE signal is
asserted. When the CMPT signal is asserted, the arbitration
number is placed on the bus lines AB k7:0l. The WINÐGT
signal serves two purposes during the arbitration cycle. If
the CMPT signal is not asserted during the arbitration cycle,
the transceiver compares its internally latched number to
the number on the ABk7:0l bus lines. If the internal number on the transceiver is greater than or equal to the number
on the ABk7:0l lines, the WINÐGT signal is asserted.
However, if the CMPT signal is asserted, the transceiver
participates in the competition. If the transceiver wins the
arbitration, the WINÐGT signal is asserted to confirm the
winning. The ABÐRE signal is used to enable the on-chip
receiver outputs.
The DS3885 supports live insertion as defined in IEEE
896.2 through the LI (Live Insertion) pin. To implement live
insertion the LI pin should be connected to the live insertion
power connector. If this function is not supported the LI pin
must be tied to the VCC pin. The DS3885 also provides
glitch free power-up/down protection during power sequencing.

DC Electrical Characteristics (Notes 2 and 3) TA e 0§ C to a 70§ C, VCC e 5V g 10% (Continued)
Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. They are not meant to imply that the device should be
operated at these limits. The tables of ‘‘Electrical Characteristics’’ provide conditions for actual device operation.
Note 2: All input and/or output pins shall not exceed VCC a 0.5V and shall not exceed the absolute maximum rating at any time, including power-up and powerdown. This prevents the ESD structure from being damaged due to excessive currents flowing from the input and/or output pins to QVCC and VCC. There is a diode
between each input and/or output to VCC which is forward biased when incorrect sequencing is applied. LI and Bn pins do not have power sequencing
requirements with respect to VCC and QVCC.
Note 3: All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to device ground unless otherwise
specified. All typical values are specified under these conditions: VCC e 5V and TA e 25§ C, unless otherwise stated.
Note 4: Only one output should be shorted at a time, and duration of the short not to exceed one second.
Note 5: Referenced to appropriate signal ground. Do not exceed maximum power dissipation of package.

Note 9: The multiplicity of parallel ground paths, reduces the effective inductance of bonding wires and leads, which then reduces the noise caused by transients
on the ground path. The various ground pins can be tied together provided that the external ground has low inductance (i.e., ground plane with power pins and
many signal pins connected to the backplane ground). If the external ground floats considerably during transients, precautionary steps should be taken to prevent
QGND from moving with reference to the backplane ground. The receiver threshold should have the same ground reference as the signal coming from the
backplane. A voltage offset between their grounds will degrade the noise margin.
Note 10: The same considerations for ground are used for VCC in reducing lead inductance. (See Note 9) QVCC and VCC should be tied together externally. If live
insertion is not supported, the LI pin can be tied together with QVCC and VCC.
