DS25BR100 / DS25BR101
3.125 Gbps LVDS Buffer with Transmit Pre-Emphasis and
Receive Equalization
General Description
Features
The DS25BR100 and DS25BR101 are single channel 3.125
Gbps LVDS buffers optimized for high-speed signal trans-
mission over lossy FR-4 printed circuit board backplanes and
balanced metallic cables. Fully differential signal paths en-
sure exceptional signal integrity and noise immunity.
DC - 3.125 Gbps low jitter, high noise immunity, low power

operation
Receive equalization reduces ISI jitter due to media loss

Transmit pre-emphasis drives lossy backplanes and
cables
The DS25BR100 and DS25BR101 feature transmit pre-em-
phasis (PE) and receive equalization (EQ), making them ideal
for use as a repeater device. Other LVDS devices with similar
IO characteristics include the following products. The
DS25BR120 features four levels of pre-emphasis for use as
an optimized driver device, while the DS25BR110 features
four levels of equalization for use as an optimized receiver
device. The DS25BR150 is a buffer/repeater with the lowest
power consumption and does not feature transmit pre-em-
phasis nor receive equalization.
On-chip 100Ω input and output termination minimizes
insertion and return losses, reduces component count and
minimizes board space. The DS25BR101 eliminates the
on-chip input termination for added design flexibility.

Applications
Wide input common mode range allows the receiver to accept
signals with LVDS, CML and LVPECL levels; the output levels
are LVDS. A very small package footprint requires minimal
space on the board while the flow-through pinout allows easy
board layout. On the DS25BR100 the differential input and
output is internally terminated with a 100Ω resistor to lower
return losses, reduce component count and further minimize
board space. For added design flexibility the 100Ω input ter-
minations on the DS25BR101 have been eliminated. This
enables a designer to adjust the termination for custom inter-
connect topologies and layout.
