TECHNICAL DISCUSSION
The NE57810 supplies power to the DDR memory bus termination
resistors at nominally
DIMMs. DDR memory output drivers source and sink current into
and out of their outputs. A typical DDR memory system is seen in
Figure 1 (page 2). Each input/output pin on the bus has a series

instantaneous value of the aggregate bus state are not equal
amounts of 1s and 0s. When memory bus speeds are in the
200–300 MHz region, the period of any single bus state is extremely
small. This permits the DDR bus termination regulator to be a linear
‘power Op Amp’ that can source and sink current instantly to the
DDR bus from the V

equivalent circuit during operation and with terminating resistors.
