AZ100EL16VS

The AZ100EL16VS is a differential receiver with variable output swing. The EL16VS has functionality and output transition times similar to the EL16, with an input that controls the amplitude of the Q/Q¯ outputs.  Maximum swing is achieved by leaving the V_CTRL pin open or tied to V_EE.
The operational range of the EL16VS control input, V_CTRL, is from V_BB (full swing) to V_CC(min. swing).  Simple control of the output swing can be obtained by a variable resistor between the V_BB and V_CC pins, with the wiper driving V_CTRL. Typical application circuits and results are described in this Data Sheet.

The EL16VS provides a V_BB output for single-ended use or a DC bias reference for AC coupling to the device.  For single-ended input applications, the V_BB reference should be connected to one side of the D/D  differential input pair.  The input signal is then fed to the other D/D input.  The V_BB pin can support 1.0mA sink/source current.  When used, the VBB pin should be bypassed to ground via a 0.01µ F capacitor.

Under open input conditions (pulled to V_EE) internal input clamps will force the Q output LOW.
