About This Manual

Thisistheuser’sguidefortheSN65LVDS387EVMandSN65LVDS386evalu-

ation modules (EVMs). It contains information on the evaluation modules

(EVMs)forTexasInstruments’SN65LVDS38716-channelLVDSdriverandfor

the SN65LVDS386 16-channel LVDS receiver.

Two separate EVMs are available, allowing each LVDS device to be tested

individually using a single EVM for that device. If both EVMs are used, the

LVDS output signals from the SN65LVDS387EVM 16-channel LVDS driver

can be connected to the LVDS inputs of the 16-channel LVDS receiver on the

SN65LVDS386EVM. This allows users to simulate performance of an LVDS

system. Recommended test equipment and evaluation and interconnect

guidelines are provided for both 16-channel point-to-point and multidrop

configurations. The EVMs are CE compliant for distribution within the

European Community.

Introduction

Thisistheuser’sguidefortheevaluationmodules(EVMs)fortheTexasInstru-

ments’ SN65LVDS387EVM 16-channel LVDS driver EVM and the

SN65LVDS386EVM16-channelLVDS receiver EVM. One manual is used for

both EVMs because the boards are similar for both devices. The EVMs are

CE-compliant for distribution within the European Community.

Low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS), as documented in TIA/EIA-644, is

a balanced signaling method used for high-speed transmission of binary data

over copper. It is well recognized that the benefits of balanced-data transmis-

sion begin to outweigh the cost advantages of single-ended techniques when

signal-transition times approach 10 nS. This represents signaling rates ap-

proaching 30 Megabits per second (Mbps) Presently, LVDS devices operate

with signaling rates in the hundreds of Mbps. This performance is achieved

with reduced power consumption and reduced electromagnetic interference

(EMI) emissions compared to other data transmission standards, such as

TIA/EIA–422 and TIA/EIA–232 (also known as RS–232 and RS–422, respec-

tively), PECL, etc. Project collateral discussed in this user’s guide can be

downloaded from the following URL: http://www.ti.com/lit/zip/SLLU013.

Note: To Designers

Both EVMs use the same printed-wiring board (PWB). The 387 device is

mounted with the device’s pin 1 facing the top of the PWB, and the 386 is

mounted with the device’s pin 1 facing the bottom of the PWB.

The Evaluation Boards

Each EVM consists of a six-layer printed-wiring board (PWB). The LVDS

device and BergStickconnectors are on the top (connector side) of the

board. All other passive components are installed on the underside

(component side) of the PWB. A simplified input/output (I/O) block diagram of

the EVM is shown in Figure 2–1.

The SN65LVDS387EVM and the SN65LVDS386EVM are discussed in sec-

tions 2.1 and 2.2. Use of the schematics in Appendix A will facilitate under-

standing the detailed discussion that follows.

SN65LVDS387 16-Channel LVDS Line Driver

The Evaluation Boards

2.1 SN65LVDS387 16-Channel LVDS Line Driver

This 16-channel LVDS driver accepts 16 low-voltage TTL (LVTTL) inputs and

generates 16 LVDS differential outputs (please refer to the schematic in

AppendixI).Connectors P1/P2are theLVTTLI/O connectors.Connectors P3

through P7 are the LVDS I/O connectors. The LVTTL inputs can be provided

by any suitable source. As shipped, the SN65LVDS387EVM has 50-Ω

termination resistors (R33 through R48) installed on each LVTTL input line to

accommodate inputs from a pattern generator or other instrumentation that

has a 50-Ωsource impedance. If the LVTTL source and cable being used is

not a 50-Ωsource, then these resistors (resistors R33 through R48) need to

be removed. They are required to match the characteristic impedance of the

cable(andthesourceimpedanceofmostpatterngenerators).Theseresistors

are located on the back (under) side of the SN65LVDS386EVM, next to the

P1/P2 connector row.

The other optional components are resistors R1 through R32. Resistors R1

through R16 are left open on the SN65LVDS387EVM. These are used in the

LVDSoutputcircuitand, sinceLVDSlinesare normallyterminatedattheinput

to the receiver, these 100-Ωresistors are not installed on the EVM. If users

want to measure specific performance parameters on the ’387, then they are

responsible for installing 100-ohm resistors in R1 through R16. Zero-ohm

resistors are installed in R17 through R32, which are in series with the LVTTL

inputs to the SN65LVDS387. The remaining components are connectors for

Vcc and Gnd connections, and decoupling capacitors for the LVDS device.

These components are the same for both configurations of the EVM.

There are also four jumpers (JMP1 through JMP4 ) located next to the P1/P2

connector row. These jumpers control the enable and disable for each four-

channel (quad) section of the device. Each of these jumpers consist of three

pinsandajumpershort.Thecenterpinisconnectedtothedeviceandtheout-

er pins (top and bottom) are VCC and GND. The jumper short can be moved

socontactismadebetweenVCC andtheenable/disablepin,orbetweenGND

and the enable/disable pin. As shipped, the four jumper shorts are installed to

VCC so that all four sections of the device are enabled. A photograph of the

SN65LVDS387EVM is shown is Figure 2–2.

The Evaluation Boards

2.2 SN65LVDS386 16-Channel LVDS Line Receiver

The SN65LVDS386EVM accepts 16 LVDS inputs and generates 16 LVTTL

outputs (refer to the schematic in Appendix I). Connectors P3 through P7

(right-sideedge)acceptthedifferentialLVDSinputsandconnectorP1/P2pro-

vides the LVTTL output signals. The

tion and testing of the device. Resistors R1 through R16 are 100-Ωresistors

which terminate each LVDS input channel. These are installed on the under-

side of the SN65LVDS386EVM, very close to the input pins of the device.

TheLVTTL output-channelspath (etchon the PWB)contains two

pads

where

external resistors may be installed. Resistors R17 through R32 are series re-

sistorswherezero-ohmresistorsarenormallyinstalled.Thesearefollowedby

resistors R33 through R48, which allow a pull-down resistor to be installed af-

ter the series resistor (R17 through R32). As shipped, these pull-down resis-

tors are not installed. The combination of these series (R17 through R32) and

pull-down resistors (R 33 through R48) allow the user to install a divider net-

workifdesired.Thismightbenecessaryiftheoutputsaretobemeasuredwith

aninstrument havinga50-Ωinputimpedance. Byinstallinga 475-Ωseriesre-

sistor and a 50-Ωpull down resistor, a 20:1 divider is created (the 50-Ωpull-

down in parallel with the 50-Ωinput impedance equals 25 Ω, plus the 475-Ω

series impedance of the instrument, for a total load of 500 Ωon the output of

thereceiver).Asshipped,thereisnoresistordividerinstalled,andeachdevice

The remaining components are connectors for VCC and GND connections,

and decoupling capacitors for the LVDS device (these components are the

same for both EVM configurations).

There are also four jumpers (JMP1 through JMP4 ) located next to the P1/P2

connector row. These jumpers control the enable/disable for each four-chan-

nel (quad) section of the device. Each of these jumpers consist of three pins

and a jumper short. The center pin is connected to the device and the outer

pins (top and bottom) are VCC and GND. The jumper short can be moved so

contact is made between VCC and the enable/disable pin, or between GND

andtheenable/disable pin.As shipped,the jumpershortsareinstalled toVCC

so that all four sections of the device are enabled.
