The digital outputs are serial LVDS to minimize the num-
ber of data lines. Each channel outputs two bits at a time
(2-lanemode)oronebitatatime(1-lanemode).TheLVDS
drivers have optional internal termination and adjustable
output levels to ensure clean signal integrity.

The ENC and ENC inputs may be driven differentially
or single-ended with a sine wave, PECL, LVDS, TTL or
CMOS inputs. An internal clock duty cycle stabilizer al-
lows high performance at full speed for a wide range of
clock duty cycles.
