Applications Information

POWER SEQUENCING AND POWERDOWN MODE

Outputs of the transmitter remain in TRI-STATE until the

power supply reaches 2V. Clock and data outputs will begin

to toggle 10 ms after V

down pin is above 1.5V. Either device may be placed into a

powerdown mode at any time by asserting the Powerdown

pin (active low). Total power dissipation for each device will

decrease to 5 µW (typical).

The transmitter input clock may be applied prior to powering

up and enabling the transmitter. The transmitter input clock

may also be applied after power up; however, the use of the

PWR DOWN pin is required as described in the Transmitter

Input Clock section. Do not power up and enable (PWR

DOWN = HIGH) the transmitter without a valid clock signal

applied to the TxCLK IN pin.

The FPD Link chipset is designed to protect itself from

accidental loss of power to either the transmitter or receiver.

If power to the transmit board is lost, the receiver clocks

(input and output) stop. The data outputs (RxOUT) retain the

states they were in when the clocks stopped. When the

receiver board loses power, the receiver inputs are con-

trolled by a failsafe bias circuitry. The LVDS inputs are

High-Z during initial power on and power off conditions.

Current is limited (5 mA per input) by the fixed current mode

drivers, thus avoiding the potential for latchup when power-

ing the device.
