supply schemes. Following standard practices of
decoupling power supplies close to the chip and,
if power and ground planes are not used, keeping
power traces away from high-frequency signals,
etc., should yield acceptable results. Separating
the T7234 analog power supplies from the digital
power supplies near the chip may yield a small
improvement, and the same holds true for using
power and ground planes vs. discrete traces.
Note that if analog and digital power supplies are
separated, the crystal power supply (V
should be tied to the digital supplies (V

active and idle power consumption of the T7234?
The IDLE power will be increased if CKOUT or
the TDM highway are active. The discussion
below presents accurate numbers for adding in
the effects of CKOUT and the TDM highway.
When considering active power measurement fig-
ures, it is important to note that the conditions
under which power measurements are made are
not always completely stated by 2B1Q IC ven-
dors. For example, loop length is not typically
mentioned in the context of power dissipation, yet
power dissipation on a short loop is noticeably
greater than on a long loop. There are two rea-
sons for the increased power dissipation at
shorter loop lengths:
1. The overall loop impedance is smaller, requir-
ing a higher current to drive the loop.

2. The far-end transceiver is closer, requiring the
The following lab measurements provide an
example of how power dissipation varies with
loop length for a specific T7234 with its
15.36 MHz CKOUT output disabled (see the fol-
lowing table for information on CKOUT). Note that
power dissipation on a 0-length loop (the worst-
case loop) is about 35 mW higher than on a loop
of >3 kft length—a significant difference. Thus,
loop length needs to be considered when deter-
mining worst-case power numbers.
Table 13. Power Dissipation Variation
* This is the configuration used by some IC manufacturers.
Also, in the case of the T7234, the use of the out-
put clock CKOUT (pin 17) needs to be considered
since its influence on power dissipation is signifi-
cant. Some applications may make use of this
clock, while others may leave it 3-stated. The
power dissipation of CKOUT is shown in Table
14.
Table 14. Power Dissipation of CKOUT
Another factor influencing power consumption is
the S/T-interface data pattern. For example, when
transmitting an INFO 4 pattern with all 1s data in
the B and D channels, the power consumption is
25 mW lower than it is when transmitting INFO 2,
because INFO 2 is worst case in terms of the
amount of +0 and –0 transitions, and INFO 4 is
best case if the data is all 1s. A typical number
would lie about midway between these two.
