PACS1284-06

California Micro Devices! PACS1284-06 Parallel Por Termination Network provides a complete integrated solution for the entire IEEE 1284 interface in a single QSOP package.

Advanced, enhanced high-speed parallel ports, con- forming to the IEEE 1284 standard, PACS1284-06 are used to provide communications with external devices such as tape back-u drives, ZIP drives, printers, parallel port SCSI adapters, external LAN adapters, scanners, video capture, and other PC peripherals.  These advanced ports of PACS1284-06 support bi-directional transfers to 2MB/sec. To effectively support these higher transfer data rates, the IEEE 1284 standard recommends a combined termina- tion, pull-up filter network between the driver/receiver and the cable at both ends of the parallel port interface. In addition, government EMC compatibility requirements impose strict  of PACS1284-06 filtering on the parallel port.  California Micro Devices!'PACS1284-06 Parallel Port Termination Network addresses all of these requirements by provid- ing a seventeen line, IEEE 1284 compliant network in a thin film integrated circuit.  PACS1284-06 provides a complete parallel port termination solution for space  critical applications by integrating a total of 43 discrete components.  In addition, all I/O pins are ESD protected for contact discharges up to 4KV per the Human Body Model.  However, the output pins of PACS1284-06 which have the highest probability of exposure to ESD pulses are protected to 8KV, HBM, thereby providing the necessary robustness for the port! application environment.

California Micro Devices! P/Active technology PACS1284-06 provide  high reliability and low cost through manufacturing efficiency.  The resistors and capacitors are fabricated using proprietary state-of-the-art thin film technology. California Micro Devices! solution of PACS1284-06 is silicon-based an has the same reliability characteristics as today! integrated circuits.
