General Description

The DS90C383 transmitter converts 28 bits of LVCMOS/

LVTTL data into four LVDS (Low Voltage Differential Signaling)

data streams. A phase-locked transmit clock is transmitted

in parallel with the data streams over a fifth LVDS link.

Every cycle of the transmit clock 28 bits of input data are

sampled and transmitted. The DS90CF384 receiver converts

the LVDS data streams back into 28 bits of LVCMOS/

LVTTL data. At a transmit clock frequency of 65 MHz, 24 bits

of RGB data and 3 bits of LCD timing and control data

(FPLINE, FPFRAME, DRDY) are transmitted at a rate of 455

Mbps per LVDS data channel. Using a 65 MHz clock, the

data throughputs is 227 Mbytes/sec. The transmitter is offered

with programmable edge data strobes for convenient

interface with a variety of graphics controllers. The transmitter

can be programmed for Rising edge strobe or Falling

edge strobe through a dedicated pin. A Rising edge transmitter

will inter-operate with a Falling edge receiver

(DS90CF384) without any translation logic. Both devices are

also offered in a 64 ball, 0.8mm fine pitch ball grid array

(FBGA) package which provides a 44 % reduction in PCB

footprint compared to the TSSOP package.

This chipset is an ideal means to solve EMI and cable size

problems associated with wide, high speed TTL interfaces.
