DS90LV027AHMX

Overview

The DS90LV027AHMX is a dual differential line driver from Texas Instruments, designed for high-speed serial data transmission using Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS). It operates within a supply voltage range of 3.0 V to 3.6 V and supports data rates up to 600 Mb/s. The device accepts CMOS or TTL input signals and converts them into LVDS outputs. It features a propagation delay of 2 ns and functions reliably across an extended industrial temperature range from -40°C to +125°C. Packaged in an 8-pin SOIC format, it dissipates approximately 1.19 W of power.

Feature Summary

• Supports high-speed data transmission at rates up to 600 Mb/s
• Converts single-ended CMOS or TTL inputs to differential LVDS outputs
• Operates reliably in extended industrial temperature environments

Applications

• High-speed point-to-point serial communication links
• Industrial control systems requiring robust signal integrity
• Automotive electronics interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'HMX' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm package type and temperature grade. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the SOIC-8 package. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current documentation before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing standard logic levels to LVDS lines is required. It serves as a suitable alternative to higher-power PECL or ECL drivers. Consider the 600 Mb/s speed limit and 3.3 V nominal supply voltage when designing the system architecture.

Part Context

This part belongs to the DS90LV027AH series of LVDS interface integrated circuits. It is distinct from receiver-only variants like the DS90LVRA2 and other speed-class members such as the DS90LV028A. The 'H' designation typically indicates an extended temperature range variant compared to standard commercial parts.

Replacement Considerations

The DS90LV027ATM/NOPB is listed as a direct replacement option by some distributors. Verify pinout and electrical specifications match exactly before substitution.
