Quad LVDS receiver for 400 Mbps serial links
It handles four independent channels, each rated for 400 Mbps data throughput, making it a fit for high-speed backplane, cable interconnect, and clock distribution applications where signal integrity over twisted-pair or PCB traces matters. Packaged in a 16-SOIC (3.90 mm width) body, the footprint is common and layout-friendly, with a 1.27 mm pitch that suits hand-assembly and reflow processes alike.
At 400 Mbps per receiver, the part supports LVDS links running at 400 MHz clock rates or 200 MHz DDR signaling. That is enough bandwidth for uncompressed 1080p video at 24-bit colour, high-speed ADC data capture, or aggregating multiple gigabit Ethernet SGMII lanes through a SerDes bridge. The 0/4 driver/receiver count means this is a pure receive-side device — pair it with a quad LVDS driver like the SN65LVDS048's complementary transmitter for a full bidirectional link.
TI lists the SN65LVDS048ADG4 as Active on the product status. That means no last-time-buy window to track, no end-of-life risk for the next several years. The part is a current-production item, suitable for both prototyping and volume builds.
The SN65LVDS048ADG4 is a standard TI catalog part, widely available through independent distribution. The part is RoHS-compliant per TI's green packaging policy, though the specific compliance statement should be verified against the latest TI environmental data sheet for your target market.
