At 100 Mbps, this transceiver handles standard LVDS signaling rates for parallel-to-serial conversions, camera links, and backplane data paths. Full-duplex operation means the driver and receiver are active simultaneously, so a single DS90LV019TMTC supports bidirectional traffic on a pair of differential pairs — no need for direction control or half-duplex turnarounds. The 1/1 driver/receiver count matches applications that need one transmit and one receive channel, like a UART-over-LVDS bridge or a sensor interface.
Supply flexibility: 3V to 5.5V
The 3V to 5.5V supply range answers the common question: yes, the DS90LV019TMTC runs on a 3.3V rail. It also tolerates 5V, so the same part can move between a 3.3V FPGA bank and a 5V legacy backplane without a regulator change. This range covers the typical LVDS common-mode input voltage requirements and keeps the output swing within LVDS levels regardless of which rail you pick.
Package and mounting: 14-TSSOP
The 14-TSSOP package (4.40 mm width, 0.173" pitch) is a surface-mount footprint common in space-constrained designs.
Note the RoHS compliance status is listed as non-compliant — this part is not RoHS-10 exempt, so check your regional regulatory requirements before specifying for new designs that must meet RoHS directives.
