DS15BR401TVSX

Overview

The DS15BR401TVSX is a low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) buffer and repeater manufactured by Texas Instruments. It integrates four independent drivers and receivers, supporting data rates up to 2 Gb/s. The device accepts CML, LVDS, or LVPECL input signals and converts them to LVDS outputs. It operates on a single 3.3 V power supply with a minimum voltage of 3 V and a maximum of 3.6 V. The component is housed in a 48-pin TQFP package suitable for surface mount technology. It functions within an industrial temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, drawing approximately 215 mA of operating current.

Feature Summary

• Provides four-channel buffering and signal regeneration for high-speed serial links
• Supports multiple input standards including CML, LVDS, and LVPECL for flexible system integration
• Converts various input formats to standardized LVDS outputs for long-distance transmission

Applications

• High-speed digital signal distribution in telecommunications equipment
• Clock and data distribution networks requiring signal integrity maintenance
• Video and display interface systems utilizing LVDS protocols

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'TSX' against official Texas Instruments documentation to confirm exact packaging and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with standard SMD assembly processes for the TQFP-48 footprint. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the manufacturer's latest product information sheet before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring four-channel LVDS signal buffering at speeds up to 2 Gb/s. It is appropriate for applications needing conversion from CML, LVDS, or LVPECL sources. Ensure the design accommodates the 3.3 V supply requirement and the thermal characteristics of the TQFP-48 package within the specified operating temperature range.

Part Context

This part belongs to the DS15BR401 series of LVDS interface integrated circuits. The family includes variants such as the DS15BR401TVS/NOPB and DS15BR401TSQ/NOPB, which share similar electrical performance but differ in packaging types like TQFP or WQFN. These devices are designed to extend the reach of high-speed differential signals in complex electronic architectures.

Replacement Considerations

The DS15BR401TVS/NOPB serves as a direct functional equivalent within the same series. Verify pinout compatibility and package dimensions between the TSX and TVS suffixes to ensure mechanical interchangeability without redesigning the printed circuit board layout.
