3 Description

The DS90LV027A is a dual LVDS driver device

optimized for high data rate and low-power

applications. The device is designed to support data

rates in excess of 600 Mbps (300 MHz) using Low

Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) technology. The

DS90LV027A is a current mode driver allowing power

dissipation to remain low even at high frequency. In

addition, the short circuit fault current is also

minimized.

The device is in a 8-pin SOIC package. The

DS90LV027A has a flow-through design for easy

printed-circuit board (PCB) layout. The differential

driver outputs provides low EMI with its typical low

output swing of 360 mV. It is perfect for high-speed

transfer of clock and data. The DS90LV027A can be

paired with its companion dual line receiver, the

DS90LV028A, or with any of TI's LVDS receivers, to

provide a high-speed point-to-point LVDS interface.
