Automotive LVDS link — what the AEC-Q100 and 400 Mbps mean for the BOM
The 400 Mbps per-channel data rate supports camera video streams, radar sensor data, and infotainment display interfaces where signal integrity over twisted-pair or PCB traces matters.
The base product number 65LVDS050 is a current TI catalog item, and the -IPWRQ1 suffix denotes the automotive-grade, tape-and-reel, RoHS-compliant variant.
16-TSSOP package — footprint and power dissipation
The 16-TSSOP body (4.40 mm width, 0.173" pitch) is a common LVDS transceiver footprint shared across the 65LVDS family. The surface-mount package suits standard reflow profiles; no special via stitching or thermal pad is needed at the 3.3 V supply and 400 Mbps signaling rate. The 2/2 driver/receiver count gives one full-duplex LVDS link, or it can be configured as two unidirectional channels.
