DESIGN NOTES

The "DIP Series" of Programmable Logic Delay Lines developed by Engineered Components Company have been designed to allow for final delay adjustment during or after installation in a circuit. These Logic Delay Lines incorporate required driving and pick-off circuitry and are contained in a 64-pin DIP package compatible with T²L and Fast circuits. These modules are of hybrid construction utilizing the proven technologies of active integrated circuitry and of passive networks utilizing capacitive, inductive and resistive elements. The ICs utilized in these modules are burned-in to Level B of MIL-STD-883 to ensure a high MTBF. The MTBF on these modules, when calculated per MIL-HDBK-217 for a 50°C ground fixed environment, is in excess of 300,000 hours. The design includes compensation for propagation delays and incorporates internal termination at the output. No additional external components are needed to obtain the required delay.

The Logic Delay Lines are digitally programmable by the presence of either a "1" or a "0" at each of the programming pins. Since the input and output terminals are fixed and the programming is accomplished only by DC voltage levels, programming may be accomplished by remote switching or permanent termination of the appropriate programming pins of the Logic Delay Line to ground; the Logic Delay Line may also be programmed automatically by computer generated data. MUX set-up time is 4ns typical. When no need exists in the application to change delay time during normal use, the desired delay is most conveniently established by use of a ground pad around each programming pin; programming is accomplished by cutting off those pins which are to remain at state "1" before insertion of the Logic Delay Line into the printed circuit board.

The PTTLDL is offered in 5 models with time delays to a maximum of 1295ns and with step resolution as shown in the Part Number Table. Programming of maximum delay is accomplished in 256 steps in accordance with the Truth Table examples. Tolerances on minimum delay, delay change per step and deviation from the programmed delay are shown in the Part Number Table.

Delay time is measured at the +1.5V level on the leading edge. Rise time for all modules is 4ns maximum, when measured from 0.75V to 2.4V. Temperature coefficient of delay is approximately +150 ppm/°C over the operating temperature range of 0 to +70°C.

The PTTLDL is designed for use with positive input pulses and will reproduce these at the output without inversion. All modules can be driven by a standard Schottky T²L gate. Output is Schottky T²L toggle; programming inputs are Schottky T²L single fan-in. These Logic Delay Lines have the capability of driving up to 10 T²L loads.

These "DIP Series" Programmable Logic Delay Lines are packaged in a 64-pin DIP housing, molded of flame-proof Diallyl Phthalate per ASTM D 5948, type SDG-F, and are fully encapsulated in epoxy resin. Flat metal leads meet the solder-ability requirements of MIL-STD-202, Method 208. Leads provide positive standoff from the printed circuit board to permit solder-fillet formation and flush cleaning of solder-flux residues for improved reliability.

Marking consists of manufacturer's name, logo (EC²), part number, terminal identification and date code of manufacture. All marking is applied by silk screen process using white epoxy paint in accordance with MIL-STD-130, to meet the permanency of identification required by MI L-STD-202, Method 215.

*Delay at step zero is referenced to the input pin.
**All delay times after step zero are referenced to step zero.

ø All modules can be operated with a minimum input pulse width of 15% of full delay and pulse period approaching square wave; since delay accuracies may be somewhat degraded, it is suggested that the module be evaluated under the intended specific operating conditions.

Special modules can be readily manufactured to improve accuracies and/or provide customer specified delay times for specific applications.
