APPLICATION INFORMATION

Figure 1 shows how the differential input can be wired to accept

single ended levels. The reference voltage V_REF = V

CC/2 is

generated by the bias resistors R1, R2 and C1. This bias circuit

should be located as close as possible to the input pin. The ratio

of R1 and R2 might need to be adjusted to position the V_REF

in the center of the input voltage swing. For example, if the input

clock swing is only 2.5V and V

CC = 3.3V, V_REF should be 1.25V

and R2/R1 = 0.609.

LVCMOS CONTROL PINS:

All control pins have internal pull-ups or pull-downs; additional

resistance is not required but can be added for additional

protection. A 1k

Ω resistor can be used.
