Figure 6. HCSL Driver Circuit and Termination

HCSL is a current steering output which sources a maximum of 17mA of current per output. To calculate worst case on-chip power dissipation,

use the following equations which assume a 50

 load to ground.

The highest power dissipation occurs when VDD_MAX.

Power

= (VDD_MAX – VOUT) * IOUT, 

since VOUT = IOUT * RL

= (VDD_MAX – IOUT * RL) * IOUT

= (3.465V – 17mA * 50

) * 17mA

Total Power Dissipation per output pair = 44.5mW
