Dual LVDS driver for point-to-point serial links
The SN75LVDS9638DGKRG4: It delivers a data rate of 155 Mbps per channel, making it suitable for applications like backplane data transmission, clock distribution, and cable extension in telecom and industrial equipment.
At 155 Mbps the driver supports common serial standards like SONET OC-3 and Fast Ethernet physical-layer clocking. The differential output swing is typically 350 mV into a 100 Ω termination, keeping EMI low compared to single-ended alternatives. For a 10-meter cable run at this rate, expect about 1 ns of edge degradation; the driver's output rise/fall times are fast enough to maintain a clean eye diagram within that distance.
No factory orders are accepted; the only channel is surplus inventory held by independent distributors. For new designs or production runs requiring a factory-backed lifecycle, a pin-compatible replacement should be evaluated.
