General Description

The GTLP6C817 is a low drive clock driver that provides TTL to GTLP signal level translation (and vice versa). The device provides a high speed interface between cards operating at TTL logic levels and a backplane operating at GTLP logic levels. High speed backplane operation is a direct result of GTLP’s reduced output swing (

Features

■ Interface between TTL and GTLP logic levels

■ Edge Rate Control to minimize noise on the GTLP port

■ Power up/down high impedance for live insertion

■ 1:6 fanout clock driver for LVTTL port

■ 1:2 fanout clock driver for GTLP port

■ LVTTL compatible driver and control inputs

■ 5V over voltage tolerance on LVTTL ports

■ Flow through pinout optimizes PCB layout

■ Open drain on GTLP to support wired-or connection

■ Recommended Operating Temperature −40°C to +85°C
