Quad LVDS receiver for 155 Mbps links
The Texas Instruments SN75LVDS32PWRG4 is a quad-channel LVDS receiver in a 16-TSSOP package, designed to convert differential LVDS signals to a single-ended 3.3V CMOS output. The receiver-only configuration (no integrated driver) means it fits receive-side nodes in point-to-point or multidrop LVDS buses.
155 Mbps — what the data rate buys you
At 155 Mbps, this part matches the line rate of OC-3 / STM-1 optical transport frames, and it also covers common LVDS clock and data links in imaging, video, and instrumentation. The 155 Mbps figure is the per-channel maximum; the four independent receivers can each run at that rate simultaneously, giving an aggregate throughput of 620 Mbps into the receiving logic.
The commercial temperature grade restricts this receiver to controlled indoor environments — office networking gear, test equipment, server backplanes, and similar applications where the ambient stays between 0°C and 70°C. If the design needs extended temperature, the SN65LVDS32 family (same pinout, -40°C to 85°C) is the usual cross-grade.
No last-time-buy window remains open through the factory channel.
