Active LVDS driver for 400 Mbps point-to-point links
The Texas Instruments DS90LV047ATMX/NOPB is an active-production LVDS driver in a 16-SOIC package, delivering 400 Mbps per channel across four differential pairs.
400 Mbps per channel with 4/0 driver-receiver configuration
Rated at 400 Mbps, this driver's output swing of roughly 350 mV into a 100-ohm termination keeps the edge rate fast enough for clock distribution or data links up to that speed without excessive radiated emissions. The 4/0 driver/receiver count means it is a pure transmit device — four LVDS outputs, no internal receivers — so it pairs with a separate LVDS receiver such as the DS90LV048A for a complete link. Supply voltage tolerance from 3V to 3.6V covers both 3.3V nominal rails and the 3.0V low end seen during brownout or at the end of a long PCB trace with IR drop.
16-SOIC footprint and industrial temperature grade
ROHS3 compliance means no exemptions for lead in solder — the part is compatible with lead-free assembly processes per current EU directives.
Sourced to order — active, no successor risk
No official successor or pin-compatible alternative is published — the part is the current design-in choice for new 4-channel LVDS driver sockets.
