DS90LV048A
3V LVDS Quad CMOS Differential Line Receiver
General Description
Features
>
n
400 Mbps (200 MHz) switching rates
The DS90LV048A is a quad CMOS flow-through differential
line receiver designed for applications requiring ultra low
power dissipation and high data rates. The device is de-
signed to support data rates in excess of 400 Mbps (200
MHz) utilizing Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS)
technology.
n Flow-through pinout simplifies PCB layout
n 150 ps channel-to-channel skew (typical)
n 100 ps differential skew (typical)
n 2.7 ns maximum propagation delay
n 3.3V power supply design
The DS90LV048A accepts low voltage (350 mV typical) dif-
ferential input signals and translates them to 3V CMOS
output levels. The receiver supports a TRI-STATE® function
that may be used to multiplex outputs. The receiver also
supports open, shorted and terminated (100Ω) input fail-
safe. The receiver output will be HIGH for all fail-safe condi-
tions. The DS90LV048A has a flow-through pinout for easy
PCB layout.
n High impedance LVDS inputs on power down
n Low Power design (40mW 3.3V static)
n Interoperable with existing 5V LVDS drivers
n Accepts small swing (350 mV typical) differential signal
levels
n Supports open, short and terminated input fail-safe
n 0V to −100mV threshold region
n Conforms to ANSI/TIA/EIA-644 Standard
n Industrial temperature operating range (-40˚C to +85˚C)
n Available in SOIC and TSSOP package

The EN and EN inputs are ANDed together and control the
TRI-STATE outputs. The enables are common to all four
receivers. The DS90LV048A and companion LVDS line
driver (eg. DS90LV047A) provide a new alternative to high
power PECL/ECL devices for high speed point-to-point inter-
face applications.
