ISL55163. The Comparator Outputs (CA#) have a 953 ohm pick-off. The scope should be set to 50 ohm termination with an attenuation factor of 20. Figure 3: Ring Oscillator Block Diagram Copyright Elevate Semiconductor 2012 Page 14 of 28... -
Page 15: Lvds Outputs Real Time Data
The scope’s two 50 Ohm resistors are used to create a 100 Ohm termination between Channel #0 and Channel #1. The main difference is that the Vcm will be 0V (GND) instead of 1.25V. The user needs to program the driver DVH/DVL to +0.350V and -0.350V respectively. Copyright Elevate Semiconductor 2012 Page 15 of 28... -
