Device Operation
OUTPUT INTERFACING
The CLC001 has two complementary, ground referenced
outputs designed to drive AC-coupled and terminated 75Ω
coaxial cables. The outputs are single ended; however, they
could be treated as a single differential output as long as
current paths from each output go to ground.
The output of the CLC001 is a high impedance current
source. It expects to see a 75Ω shunt resistor before driving
cable to convert the current output to a voltage and provide
proper back-matching. No series back-matching resistors
should be used. Refer to Section Typical Application for an
illustration.
Output levels range from 800 mV
75Ω AC-coupled, back-matched loads. Output level is con-
trolled by the value of R
kΩ

rent availability.
The SD001EVK evaluation kit for the CLC001, Serial Digital
Cable Driver with Adjustable Outputs, provides an operating
environment in which the cable driver can be evaluated by
system / hardware designers. The evaluation board has all
the needed circuitry and connectors for easy connection and
checkout of the device circuit options as discussed in the
CLC001 datasheet. A schematic, parts list and pictorial
drawing are provided with the board.

PCB Layout Recommendations
Printed circuit board layout affects the performance of the
CLC001. The following guidelines will aid in achieving satis-
factory device performance.
• Use a ground plane or power/ground plane sandwich
• Bypass device power with a 0.01 µF monolithic ceramic
• Provide short, symmetrical ground return paths for:
• Provide short, grounded guard traces located
