Monolithic High-Speed Pin Driver
Features
The EL1056 is designed to drive high-
quality test signals into close or
terminated loads. It has a dispersion of
• Wide ±12V output levels
• 250ps dispersion
• 3ns delay times
250ps or less — whether due to signal size or direction of
edge. It can output a very wide 24V output span,
encompassing all logic families as well as analog levels. The
EL1056 is fabricated in Elantec's oxide isolated process,
which eliminates the possibility of latch-up and provides a
very durable circuit.
• 1V/ns slew rate—adjustable
• Low overshoot and aberrations in 50Ω systems
• Three-state output
• Power-down mode reduces output leakage to
nanoamperes
The output can be turned off in two ways; the OE pins allow
the output to be put in a high-impedance state which makes
the output look like a large resistance in parallel with 3pF,
even for back-driven signals with as much as 2.5V/µs slew
rate. The E pins put the output in an even higher impedance
state, guaranteed to 150nA leakage in the EL1056A. This
allows accurate measurements on the bus without
disconnecting the EL1056 with a relay.
• Overcurrent sense flag available to protect internal output
devices
• Buffered analog inputs
• Differential logic inputs are compatible with ECL, TTL, and
CMOS
Applications
The EL1056 incorporates an output current sense which can
warn the system controller that excessive output current is
flowing. The trip point is set by two external resistors.
• Memory testers
• ASIC testers
Pinout
• Functional board testers
• Analog/digital incoming component verifiers
• Logic emulators
