What this LVDS transceiver delivers on the bus
It is part of the 65LVDS series qualified to AEC-Q100, meaning it is characterized for automotive-grade reliability and temperature range.
Two drivers, two receivers — full-duplex link in one package
With two independent driver/receiver pairs, this transceiver can support a single full-duplex LVDS channel or two simplex links. The 100 Mbps data rate per channel is sufficient for high-speed serial links like camera video, display interfaces, or backplane data transfer in automotive infotainment and ADAS modules. The full-duplex capability means simultaneous transmit and receive on the same differential pair, which halves the cable count compared to half-duplex solutions.
AEC-Q100 qualification and active production status
For designs that require an automotive-grade LVDS transceiver in a 16-TSSOP footprint, this part is a direct fit without needing a waiver or a commercial-grade substitute.
Package and supply considerations for the board layout
The 16-TSSOP package (4.40 mm width) is a common, easy-to-route footprint for LVDS routing — the 0.65 mm pitch keeps board area small while allowing manual inspection. The surface-mount package is MSL-rated per TI's standard; no special baking is required if the moisture barrier bag is intact.
