Four-channel LVDS driver for point-to-point links
It delivers a data rate of 400 Mbps per channel, making it suitable for video interfaces, backplane data distribution, and clock distribution in industrial and telecom equipment.
At 400 Mbps the driver supports a 200 MHz clock rate in DDR applications or a 400 Mbps serial stream. The LVDS swing is typically 350 mV into a 100-ohm termination, keeping EMI low and allowing cable runs of several meters in a controlled-impedance environment. If your design needs to push data beyond 400 Mbps, look at the DS90LV047A's higher-speed siblings — but for standard-definition video (720p at 24-bit colour) or a 16-bit parallel bus at 25 MHz, this part has headroom.
Obsolete — plan for a replacement or surplus buy
For new designs, consider the DS90LV047A family (still active in some package variants) or a cross-ship from a second-source LVDS driver vendor.
Package and supply — fits a 3.3V LVDS interface
Housed in a 16-TSSOP (4.40 mm width) with a 0.65 mm pitch, the DS90LV047ATMTCX shares a common footprint with other quad LVDS drivers. The supply range of 3V to 3.6V means a clean 3.3V rail is required — no 5V tolerance on the supply, so check the power rail before layout. The tape-and-reel delivery (TR suffix) is feeder-ready for automated pick-and-place.
