Phillips 726 ECL/NIM/TTL Translator

OVERVIEW Phillips 794


FEATURES


DESCRIPTION

The model 726 is a 16-channel level translator packaged in a single width NIM module. It simultaneously converts in any direction between NIM, TTL and ECL logic families. In addition, a logical "OR" is possible for the ECL input and the NIM/TTL input. The input to output is direct coupled with the output duration equal to the input duration. Each channel has a single input connector which accepts a fast negative NIM level with 50 ohm input impedance and a positive TTL level with 500 ohms impedance. This produces a positive TTL output capable of driving a 50 ohm load and a bridged NIM output that drives two 50 ohm loads. The NIM output stage is current-switching which allows pulse clipping and is protected from damage due to shorted cables.


Input Characteristics

NIM/TTL 16 inputs, one per channel, LEMO style connector:
accepts both negative NIM or positive TTL pulses or levels.
NIM: 50 ohms impedance +/-10%; -500 mV threshold; input protected to +/-8 VDC.
TTL: 500 ohms impedance +/-10%; +1.2 Volt threshold; input protected to +/-8 VDC.
ECL Input 16 inputs, one per channel:
2 x 17-pin header with lock and eject feature; accepts complementary ECL inputs; removable 110 ohm input termination; 200 mV differential threshold.

Output Characteristics

NIM Outputs, two NIM outputs per channel:
bridged -32 mA current switching, LEMO style connectors; delivers one double amplitude NIM level or two normal NIM levels into 50 ohms; 1.5 nsec rise and fall times.
TTL Output, one TTL output per channel, LEMO style connector:
sources 45 mA to drive 50 ohm load or 1000 standard TTL loads, sink current of 100 mA; able to drive 100 standard TTL loads. 3.5 nsec rise and fall times.
ECL Output, complementary ECL, one per channel:
2 x 17 pin header with lock and eject feature; drives two 110 ohm ECL loads or up to 30 daisychained loads. Normal ECL levels of -800 mV and -1.7 Volts, 2 nsec rise and fall times.
