Quad LVDS driver at 400 Mbps — what the data rate buys the link
Each of the four drivers handles a serial data stream up to 400 Mbps, which is the practical ceiling for short-haul LVDS links carrying parallel-to-serial converted video, clock, or control signals over a differential pair. With four drivers and no receivers, this part is a pure transmit-side device — pair it with a quad LVDS receiver like the SN65LVDS32 for a complete link.
Package and footprint — 16-TSSOP layout constraints
The 0.173" body length keeps the footprint compact. No exposed thermal pad, so dissipation relies on the leadframe and board copper — at 400 Mbps with all four channels active, keep the ambient below 85°C to stay within the junction limit.
