however, until the 
UPDATE
 signal is taken low. It is thus possible 
to latch in new data for several or all of the outputs first via 
successive negative transitions of 
WE
 while 
UPDATE
 is held 
high, and then have all the new data take effect when 
UPDATE
goes low. This technique should be used when programming 
the device for the first time after power-up when using parallel 
programming. 
Reset 
When powering up the AD8104/AD8105, it is usually desirable 
to have the outputs come up in the disabled state. The 
RESET
pin, when taken low, causes all outputs to be in the disabled state. 
However, the 
UPDATE
 signal does not reset all registers in the 
AD8104/AD8105. This is important when operating in the 
parallel programming mode. Refer to the 
Parallel Programming 
Description
 section for information about programming internal 
registers after power-up. Serial programming programs the entire 
matrix each time; therefore, no special considerations apply. 
Since the data in the shift register is random after power-up, it 
should not be used to program the matrix, or the matrix can 
enter unknown states. To prevent this, do not apply a logic low 
signal to 
UPDATE
 initially after power-up. The shift register 
should first be loaded with the desired data, and then 
UPDATE
can be taken low to program the device. 
The 
RESET
 pin has a 20 k pull-up resistor to VDD that can be 
used to create a simple power-up reset circuit. A capacitor from 
RESET
 to ground holds 
RESET
 low for some time while the rest 
of the device stabilizes. The low condition causes all the outputs 
to be disabled. The capacitor then charges through the pull-up 
resistor to the high state, thus allowing full programming 
capability of the device. 
Because the AD8104/AD8105 have random data in the internal 
registers at power-up, the device may power up in a test state 
where the supply current is larger than typical. Therefore, the 
RESET
 pin should be used to disable all outputs and bring the 
device out of any test mode. 
OPERATING MODES 
The AD8104/AD8105 has fully differential inputs and outputs. 
The inputs and outputs can also be operated in a single-ended 
fashion. This presents several options for circuit configurations 
that require different gains and treatment of terminations, if 
they are used. 
Differential Input 
Each differential input to the AD8104/AD8105 is applied to a 
differential receiver. These receivers allow the user to drive the 
inputs with a differential signal with an uncertain common-
mode voltage, such as from a remote source over twisted pair. 
The receivers respond only to the difference in input voltages, 
and will restore a common-mode voltage suitable for the 
internal signal path. Noise or crosstalk that is present in both 
inputs is rejected by the input stage, as specified by its common-
mode rejection ratio (CMRR). Differential operation offers a 
great noise benefit for signals that are propagated over distance 
in a noisy environment.

Figure 65. Input Receiver Equivalent Circuit 
The circuit configuration used by the differential input receivers 
is similar to that of several Analog Devices, Inc. general-purpose 
differential amplifiers, such as the 
AD8131. It is a voltage 
feedback amplifier with internal gain setting resistors. The 
arrangement of feedback makes the differential input imped-
ance appear to be 5 k across the inputs.

This impedance creates a small differential termination error if 
the user does not account for the 5 k parallel element, although 
this error is less than 1% in most cases. Additionally, the source 
impedance driving the AD8104/AD8105 appears in parallel 
with the internal gain-setting resistors, such that there may be a 
gain error for some values of source resistance. The AD8104/ 
AD8105 are adjusted such that its gains are correct when driven 
by a back-terminated 75  source impedance at each input 
phase (37.5  effective impedance to ground at each input pin, 
or 75  differential source impedance across pairs of input 
pins). If a different source impedance is presented, the differential 
gain of the AD8104/AD8105 can be calculated by
