250 Mbps LVDS buffer with 2:2 mux — what it does for the signal chain
The Texas Instruments SN65LVDS22DR is an LVDS buffer and multiplexer that takes one differential input and routes it to one of two LVDS output pairs, or selects between two inputs for a single output — the 1 x 2:2 configuration. It handles serial data up to 250 Mbps with a propagation delay of 4.0 ns, making it a fit for clock distribution or data fan-out in backplane, cable, or board-to-board links where signal integrity matters over a few metres of differential pair.
Package and footprint — 16-SOIC narrow body
No exposed pad — thermal management is straightforward for the 13 mA supply current. MSL level is typical for this package family; no special bake required unless the moisture-barrier bag has been breached.
TI lists the SN65LVDS22DR as Active.
