John's TADD-2-mini [1] uses the Wenzel sine-to-square converter. It performs
very well but requires +10 V.
I'm looking for a solution that works at 5 V (e.g., USB powered) and also uses
fewer parts. Wenzel also mentions using a differential line receiver [2]. That
would be an ideal single-chip 5 V solution for me but the two parts he
mentions, MC1489 [3] and SN55182 [4], don't appear fast enough for a 10 MHz
input.
Can any of you circuit experts suggest some line receivers that would work?
Maybe DS9637 [5]? This isn't for cesium work so it doesn't have to be quite as
good as the TADD-2.
What about the plethora of LVDS receivers - they're basically a
differential input thresholder, with deliberate hysteresis, looking for
a 300 mV shift across a 100 ohm resistor.
Plenty fast (GHz)
Thanks,
