DESCRIPTION
KEY FEATURES
■ 2.5pF OUTPUT CAPACITANCE DURING
The LX5207 is an eighteen line active ter-
minator for the SCSI parallel bus. This SCSI
standard recommends active termination at
both ends of the SCSI bus.
the lowest enabled supply current of any
terminator available on the market today.
DISCONNECT
■ 500nA SUPPLY CURRENT IN DISCONNECT
Linfinity's proprietary BiCMOS low dropout
regulator architecture enables this unique
and very efficient operating characteristic.
The LX5207 also offers a precisely
trimmed channel output current specified
to a 5% tolerance. The maximum value
of the output current is trimmed as closely
as possible to the SCSI standard maximum
specification to give the highest possible
noise margin for fast SCSI operation. And
finally, the LX5207 sinks up to 100mA of
current making it compatible with today's
fast active negation drivers.
MODE
During disconnect mode, the LX5207
requires a meager 500nA of supply current
while offering only 2.5pF of output capaci-
tance. To enter this low power mode, the
disconnect pin can be left open (floating)
or driven high thereby disconnecting the
terminating resistors and placing the inter-
nal low dropout regulator into low power
mode. In disconnect mode each termina-
tion line presents a high impedance to the
SCSI bus with the overall effect being to
preserve high signal integrity and subse-
quent reliable, error free communications.
During normal operation, the LX5207
consumes only 800µA of current which is

The LX5207 is a superior, pin-for-pin
replacement for a variety of industry prod-
ucts such as the UC5601, UC5602, UC5608,
and UC5609.
