TLD4012 is a low-power, low-distortion ADSL line driver. This driver offers power consumption ranging
from 600mW to 650mW, and provides active, or synthetic, output impedance matching to reduce power
consumption.
“Test/Applications Circuits” section of this document).
consumption of this device for FDM and overlapped transmissions. Power consumption is reduced by
using +/-14V supplies for VDD15/VSS15.
Power consumption values given above, and in the following specifications, are for total power consumed
from the supplies. This includes power dissipated in the device and power delivered to the load, where the
load includes both the line and the matching resistors. Power dissipation in the driver can be determined
by subtracting power delivered to the load (line and matching resistors) from the power consumption given
in the specifications. The power consumption provided above does not account for loading due to the
hybrid which will vary with application.
With +/-14V supplies, the maximum output swing, V
and a 5% supply tolerance. This is sufficient for full-power FDM signals with a PAR of 6.45. Note that
when using +/-14V supplies with a 5% tolerance the worst-case spurious free dynamic range in the
receiving band, and intermodulation distortion may be degraded slightly from the values given in the
specifications below. When using 14V nominal supplies the maximum degradation expected when the +/-
14V supplies are 5% low (minimum +/-13.3V) versus +/-15V supplies 5% low (minimum +/-14.25V) is less
than 4dB worse case.
All other minimum and maximum specifications in the tables that follow are valid from +/-13.3 to +/-15.75V
on VSS15/VDD15. This allows the use of +/-14V supplies with a 5% tolerance for VSS15/VDD15.
Lower PAR (peak-to-average ratio) values allow the high voltage supplies (VSS15 and VDD15) to be
reduced further, thus reducing power consumption. For example, for a 5.3 PAR VSS15/VDD15 can be
reduced to +/-12V. This will reduce power consumption to about 600mW for full-rate, 19.8dBm ADSL
FDM (non-overlapped) transmissions. Contact Tripath regarding use of the TLD4012 below +/-13.3V.
The recommended values for the line-matching resistors, R
ratios to properly match the line are (see Figure 1 in “Test/Application” section below):

The 2.55 synthesis factor of the TLD4012 and the values above for R
100:line impedance. The synthesis factor, k, is defined as the factor by which the line driver multiplies the
line-matching resistor, R
If your application can take advantage of higher synthesis factors, contact Tripath regarding options that
can reduce power consumption still further.
