Consider this closed. I found that PECL receivers that can=20
operate at 3.3V (Moto MC100LVEL17) are defined with a=20
vCMR and vID that LVDS meets easily.

Subject: [SI-LIST] : LVDS to Differential LVPECL conversion?

Hello All,
=20
Presently, I've not found yet any IC that performs=20
LVDS to LVPECL conversion. Just need one pair=20
converted.=20
=20
My current strategy is to use the following passive method:

(50 ohm system; the following applies to each=20
line in the LVDS diff. pair)

short segment with :
10pF in series then a VBB bias of 680ohm pullup to 3.3v=20
and 1Kohm pulldown to VEE(gnd).

schematically:
LVDS input----cap---bias---LVPECL diff. driver for fanout on pcb=20

Q1: Seem ok (provided all the other SI rules followed)?=20
=20
Q2: Is use of a ferrite bead between pullup and/or pulldown=20
resistor and its plane, to filter out noise at the VBB=20
bias point, a good idea or just overkill?

Thanks,
John Lipsius
