Product details

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.

Frequently asked questions

What is the direct replacement for SN75LVDS9638DGKRG4?

A direct pin-compatible replacement is the SN65LVDS9638 in the same 8-VSSOP package. For commercial-temperature-only designs, the SN75LVDS9638 (non-DGKRG4 suffix) may also be a drop-in substitute if available.

What is the data rate of SN75LVDS9638DGKRG4?

The SN75LVDS9638DGKRG4 supports a data rate of 155 Mbps per channel. This is the maximum specified rate; actual throughput depends on cable length and termination quality.
