What this LVDS interface IC does on the board
The NXP PTN3460BS/F4Y is a specialized interface IC designed for LVDS applications, handling the electrical translation between parallel RGB and LVDS display interfaces.
Package and board-fit details for the rework bench
Mounting is surface-mount only. The VFQFN package requires a stencil with appropriate aperture design for the center pad to avoid voids under the die attach area.
It is fully ROHS3 compliant, meeting the latest EU restriction directive for lead and other hazardous substances.
Procurement reality — sealed reels, consistent date-codes
The PTN3460BS/F4Y is offered in Tape & Reel (TR) or Cut Tape (CT) packaging. For volume buys, the reel format is standard; cut tape is available for prototype or low-volume builds. When sourcing surplus or auction lots, the key check is the date-code spread on the reel. A sealed reel with a single production date-code is genuine factory excess; mixed-date reels from brokers should be inspected for repackaged or reworked stock.
