Product Overview

The SN65LVDS101 is a Texas Instruments Signal_Chain differential translator/repeater intended for high-speed differential signaling interfaces. Its receiver input compatibility covers LVDS, LVPECL, and CML, while the outputs are LVPECL / 3.3-V PECL compatible. The extracted datasheet facts rate the device for a maximum signaling rate of at least 2 Gbps.

Recommended operation is based on a 3.0 V to 3.6 V supply, with 3.3 V nominal operation, and a -40°C to 85°C free-air temperature range. Differential input voltage magnitude is specified from 0.1 V to 1.0 V, and the input voltage range supports 0 V to 4 V for common-mode or input signal combinations.

Package options are SOIC-8 at 4.90 mm x 3.91 mm and VSSOP-8 at 3.00 mm x 3.00 mm. Thermal resistance is specified as 208°C/W for the D 8-pin package and 263°C/W for the DGK 8-pin package. Applications should account for 50 mA typical supply current, 116 mW typical device dissipation, and the specified LVPECL output levels, propagation delay, skew, and jitter limits.
