The EP16VA is a world-class differential driver/receiver. This device is functionally identical to the EP16 and LVEP16 devices, but with a high-gain output. The DC gain of the QHG and QHGbar outputs is several times higher than that of the EP16. Only the VBB pin, the internally generated supply voltage, is provided for this device. In the case of single-ended inputs, tie the unused differential input to VBB as the switch reference voltage. VBB can also re-bias the AC-coupled input. When used, decouple VBB and VCC with 0.01 µF capacitors and limit source/sink current to 0.5 mA. VBB should be left open when not in use. In an open input condition (pull to VEE), an internal input clamp will force the QHG output low. For differential inputs under no-signal conditions, special considerations must be taken to prevent instability. The 100 series includes temperature compensation.
