APPLICATIONS
LTC1685
Very inexpensive unshielded telephone grade twisted pair
is shown in Figure 13. In spite of the noticeable loss at the
receiver input, the LTC1685 can still transfer 30Mbps at
100ft of telephone grade UTP. Note that under all these
conditions, the LTC1685 can pass through a single data
pulse equal to the inverse of the data rate (e.g., 20ns for
50Mbps data rate).
Even at distances of 4000ft, 1Mbps data rates are possible
using the LTC1685 and category 5 UTP. Figure 14a shows
a 1 s pulse propagated down 4000ft of category 5 UTP.
Notice both the DC and the AC losses at the receiver input.
The DC attenuation is due to the parasitic resistance of the
cable. Figure 14b shows a 1Mbps square wave over
4000ft. To transmit at this speed but using longer cable
lengths, see the LTC1686/LTC1687 high speed RS485
full-duplex transceivers.

High Speed Backplane Transmission
The LTC1685 can also be used in backplane point-to-point
transceiver applications, where the user wants to assure
operation even when the common mode goes above or
below the rails. It is advisable to terminate the PC traces
when approaching maximum speeds. Since the LTC1685
is not intended to drive parallel terminated cables with
characteristic impedances much less than that of twisted
pair, both ends of the PC trace must be series terminated
with the characteristic impedance of the trace. For best
results, the signal should be routed differentially. The true
and complement outputs of the LTC1685 should be routed
on adjacent layers of the PC board. The two traces should
be routed very symmetrically, minimizing and equalizing
parasitics to nearby signal and power/ground layers. For
single-ended transmission, route the series terminated
