5213TR
The LX5213 is a nine-line active terminator
for the SCSI parallel bus. This SCSI standard
recommends active termination at both ends
of the SCSI bus.
During disconnect mode, the LX5213 re-
quires a meager 60μA of supply current while
offering only 3.5pF of output capacitance.
To enter this low-power mode, the discon-
nect pin can be left open (floating) or driven
high, thereby disconnecting the terminating
resistors and placing the internal low dropout
regulator into low-power mode. In discon-
nect mode, each termination line presents
a high impedance to the SCSI bus with the
overall effect being to preserve high-signal
integrity and yield subsequent reliable, error-
free communications.
During normal operation, the LX5213 con-
sumes only 600μA of current, which is the
lowest enabled supply current of any termi-
nator available on the market today.
Linfinity's proprietary BiCMOS low dropout
regulator architecture enables this unique
and very efficient operating characteristic.
The LX5213 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 the LX5213 sinks
up to 150mA of current, making it compatible
with today's fast active negation drivers.
The LX5213 is a superior, pin-for-pin re-
placement for a variety of industry products
such as the UC5603 and UC5613
