Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM26C32
We have been using AM26C31 Driver / AM26C32 Receiver setup for many of our applications, but this new one has me stumped.
We are trying to run them in/out of a VME x64 backplane (J2 "UsrDef" pins specifically), with less than 2ft of twisted pair wire between the individual J2 card slots.
What I am seeing is that the 1Y/1A line is stuck low on about 3/4 of our chips. The 1Z/1B pair is functioning as expected.
Additionally, on those 3/4 lines, only 1 pair of the 14 "Y" outputs are reporting an incorrect logic output on the Receiver side. all of the other pairs report the logic output I would expect, given matching inputs.
Basic schematic attached below. Nothing earth-shattering:
