Four LVDS receivers in a 16-SOIC — what the 200 Mbps rating means for your link budget
Each channel handles data rates up to 200 Mbps, which is the practical ceiling for short-reach board-to-board or cable links where the interconnect loss stays under a few dB.
Supply voltage and temperature — where this part fits and where it does not
That means the SN75LVDS390DR is a good fit for benchtop test equipment, office networking gear, or indoor telecom racks, but not for engine bays, outdoor base stations, or industrial ovens. The supply is strictly 3V to 3.6V — do not connect it to a 5V rail; the absolute maximum on VCC is 4V, and running it at 5V will damage the inputs.
It is surface-mount only, shipped in Tape & Reel. The 1.27 mm pin pitch is standard for SOIC, so the footprint matches any generic 16-SOIC land pattern. No exposed pad — all dissipation goes through the leads, which is fine for the sub-100 mW typical power of this receiver.
