DS90CR216MTDX/NOPB

Specialized Overview

The DS90CR216MTDX/NOPB is a CMOS, TTL input LVDS interface integrated circuit manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features 21 drivers and 3 receivers, supporting a data rate of 1.386 Gb/s. The device operates on a single 3.3 V power supply with a voltage range of 3 V to 3.6 V. Input differential voltage thresholds are specified between -100 mV and +100 mV. Power dissipation is rated at 1.89 W. It functions within an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is housed in a TSSOP-48 surface-mount package.

Specialized Feature Summary

• Supports high-speed serial data transmission via Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) technology.
• Integrates multiple driver channels for parallel-to-serial conversion from CMOS/TTL inputs.
• Designed for robust signal integrity over long cable runs using differential signaling.

Specialized Applications

• Point-to-point digital video interfaces
• Flat panel display connections
• Industrial control system interconnects

Specialized Procurement Notes

Verify the NRND status before procurement, as this designation indicates the component is not recommended for new designs. Confirm that the TSSOP-48 package dimensions align with existing PCB footprints. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if required by specific regional regulations. Check for moisture sensitivity levels to determine proper storage and handling requirements during assembly.

Specialized Selection Notes

Select this component when a high channel count serializer is required for LVDS applications. Compare against the DS90CR215 series if receiver functionality is needed instead of driving. Verify that the 1.386 Gb/s speed meets system timing requirements. Consider thermal management due to the 1.89 W power dissipation rating in the TSSOP-48 package.

Specialized Part Context

This part belongs to the DS90CR216 family of LVDS interface ICs. It serves as a serializer converting parallel CMOS or TTL data into a serial LVDS stream. Related components include the DS90CR215 for deserialization and the DS90CR217 for higher speed operations. The family targets display and industrial communication markets requiring reliable high-bandwidth data transfer.

Specialized Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. The NRND status suggests evaluating alternative newer generation serializers from Texas Instruments or other vendors for long-term production viability.
