Achieving both rising falling edge accuracy same time difficult achieve comes premium price. Furthermore, timing subject variations 74LS04 devices procured from other manufacturers. silicon delay lines, temperature compensation implemented balancing positive temperature coefficient CMOS logic against negative coefficient ramp generator. Figure shows that logic portion circuit, like hybrid delay lines general, slows linearly with increasing temperature. Since ramp speeds non-linearly, effects tend cancel, minimizing effects temperature. Because result resembles parabolic shape, temperature coefficients specified parts million (ppm) inappropriate describe behavior silicon delay lines. more meaningful parameter maximum shift from nominal, anywhere over rated temperature range. Figure compares technologies over temperature. While some silicon delay line families (DS1000, DS1010) provide minimal voltage independence delay change supply variation), newer designs (DS1005 DS1013) provide higher degree supply isolation delay change supply variation). newer designs achieve supply voltage independence employing positive ramps referenced ground rather than negative ramps referenced (Figure 12).

ANSWER: typical hybrid consists inverter DIP, board acting ground plane plus chip capacitors, terminating resistor multiple ferrite inductor. Timing determined coil winding and/or capacitor selection trimming. Dallas Semiconductor Silicon Timed Circuit (STC) design uses laser-optimized bonded conventional lead frame molded into auto-insertable SOIC package. (500 pulse width, period) will timing correlation when measured volt levels. QUESTION: does laser-adjustment time delay? ANSWER: Under direction computer-controlled tester with picosecond resolution, proper slope ramp obtained directing laser open polysilicon fuses removing unnecessary current sources capacitors. QUESTION: delay time need? QUESTION: What advantages silicon timed circuits over hybrid devices? ANSWER: (Silicon Timed Circuits) offer advantages design, packaging manufacture over hybrids. Specifically, STCs offer increased reliability silicon greater accuracy both rise fall edges. Unlike devices, STCs CMOS devices offer true output levels. Using standard SOIC packaging, STCs well suited standard handling including reflow soldering. ANSWER: Yes, custom delay lines customized meet your design timing requirements. even supply sample quantities ceramic packages evaluation. QUESTION: STCs need compensate temperature like hybrids? ANSWER: silicon delay lines, temperature compensation implemented balancing positive temperature coefficient CMOS logic against negative coefficient ramp generator. logic portion circuit speeds linearly with increasing temperature while ramp speeds non-linearly. These effects tend cancel, minimizing effects temperature. Rather than measuring coefficients parts million, silicon delay lines meaningfully measured maximum shift from nominal anywhere along rated temperature range. delays require QUESTION: Whats basic operation silicon delay line device? ANSWER: basic building block silicon delay line ramp generator associated logic. input signal triggers ramp generator that supplies laser- adjusted voltage-to-time relationship. QUESTION: there correlate performance silicon time delays against hybrids? ANSWER: Following this procedure will provide correlation. fast(3ns) rise/fall input pulses with volt logic levels, inductance decoupling techniques using 0.01 capacitors, capacitance measurement probes placed close possible package, relaxed timing QUESTION: silicon timed decoupling? ANSWER: STCs contain noise sensitive voltage detection circuits fast rise time output circuits decoupling indicated. 0.01 inductance capacitor should used close proximity delay line assure highest performance. 061396 10/11 QUESTION: silicon delay lines also function glitch discriminators? ANSWER: Yes, pulse glitch less than about first stage delay 10-tap serial device (DS1000, DS1005 1010) less than about 3-in-1 parallel device (DS1013) there will output. QUESTION: daisy chain several devices achieve longer delay? ANSWER: Daisy chaining silicon delay lines presents problem that increased with number packages chain. voltage chopped stabilization circuit design causes slight time jitter (well within specifications almost transparent circuit) output. When packages daisy chained, time jitter cumulative degrades accuracy downline stages. four packages chained series, results generally unacceptable. QUESTION: silicon delay line used time-shift square wave? ANSWER: Yes, good solution. Just certain period specification met. QUESTION: What temperature parameters silicon timed delays meet? ANSWER: STCs function over full military (-55°C +125°C) temperature range, have been optimized commercial (0°C +70°C range. product family DS1000-Ind available industrial temperature range. Other parts specified industrial temperature range custom basis. QUESTION: What about daisy chaining stages parallel STC? ANSWER: With exception fast taps DS1007, some jitter will added with each stage when added series. This will problem most cases. Users report that daisy chaining this convenient method implementing standard series delays. 061396 11/11 Other recent searchesTC74HC280AP - TC74HC280AP TC74HC280AP Datasheet TC74HC280AF - TC74HC280AF TC74HC280AF Datasheet RP400 - RP400 RP400 Datasheet PD178P018APD178018AROMPROMEPROM - PD178P018APD178018AROMPROMEPROM PD178P018APD178018AROMPROMEPROM Datasheet PD178P018AKK-T - PD178P018AKK-T PD178P018AKK-T Datasheet MAS3506D - MAS3506D MAS3506D Datasheet ETR0202 - ETR0202 ETR0202 Datasheet 74F164 - 74F164 74F164 Datasheet 2SA1832 - 2SA1832 2SA1832 Datasheet
