DS90LV031AW-QML

Overview

The DS90LV031AW-QML is a quad CMOS differential line driver designed for ultra-low power and high data rate applications. It utilizes Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) technology to support data rates exceeding 400 Mbps at 200 MHz. The device accepts low voltage TTL/CMOS inputs and translates them into low voltage differential output signals with a typical amplitude of 350 mV. Powered by a single +3.3V supply, it features a TRI-STATE function that reduces idle power dissipation to a typical 13 mW. The component operates within an extended temperature range from -55°C to +125°C and is housed in a 16-pin Ceramic Flatpack (CFP) package.

Feature Summary

• High impedance LVDS outputs with power-off low differential skew
• Low propagation delay and rise/fall times of 800 ps
• Compatible with IEEE 1596.3 SCI LVDS and TIA/EIA-644 standards
• Pin compatible with DS26C31

Applications

• High speed point-to-point interface applications
• Replacement for high power pseudo-ECL devices
• Step down replacement for the 5V DS90C031 Quad Driver

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the latest Texas Instruments Package Option Addendum to confirm the exact package type, lead finish, and moisture sensitivity level. Ensure the procurement channel provides valid traceability documentation required for QML certified components intended for military or defense applications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring robust LVDS signaling with strict power constraints. Confirm that the application environment supports the specified -55°C to +125°C operating temperature range. Verify that the PCB layout accommodates the 16-pin CFP footprint and includes necessary decoupling capacitors as recommended in the datasheet.
