Dual LVDS driver for point-to-point serial links
With no integrated receiver, this part is strictly a transmit-side component; you pair it with a separate LVDS receiver (like the SN65LVDS9634 or SN65LBCP22) on the far end of the cable or backplane trace.
400 Mbps and signal integrity at industrial temperatures
The 400 Mbps data rate per channel covers common serial standards — display links, clock distribution, and backplane data paths — where the total throughput across two lanes reaches 800 Mbps. At these edge rates, the LVDS swing (typically 350 mV differential) keeps EMI low and power dissipation modest.
Supply rail and decoupling notes
A 0.1 µF ceramic right at the supply pin, plus a 1 µF bulk cap per board, is the usual decoupling prescription.
TI has not issued a PCN or EOL notice for this base part number as of the latest records.
