DISTRIBUTED-LOAD BACKPLANE SWITCHING CHARACTERISTICS
The preceding switching characteristics table shows the switching characteristics of the device into a lumped load
(Figure 1). However, the designer’s backplane application probably is a distributed load. The physical representation
is shown in Figure 2. This backplane, or distributed load, can be approximated closely to a resistor inductance
capacitance (RLC) circuit, as shown in Figure 3. This device has been designed for optimum performance in this RLC
circuit. The following switching characteristics table shows the switching characteristics of the device into the RLC
load, to help the designer better understand the performance of the GTLP device in this typical backplane. See
www.ti.com/sc/gtlp for more information.
