DS91M125TMA/NOPB

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Overview

The DS91M125TMA/NOPB is an LVDS interface integrated circuit manufactured by Texas Instruments, functioning as a 1:4 M-LVDS repeater. It accepts a single LVDS input and provides four differential M-LVDS outputs. The device supports data rates up to 250 Mb/s with a propagation delay of 8.5 ns. It operates on a 3.3 V supply voltage within a range of 3 V to 3.6 V, drawing 78 mA of operating current. The component is housed in a 16-pin SOIC package and functions reliably across an industrial temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Feature Summary

• Converts a single LVDS signal into four synchronized M-LVDS outputs for fan-out applications
• Provides high-speed data transmission capability at rates up to 250 Mb/s
• Operates with low power consumption suitable for dense electronic designs

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Applications

• Clock distribution networks requiring signal splitting
• High-speed serial data bus interfaces
• Test and measurement equipment signal routing

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation carefully, as National Semiconductor was acquired by Texas Instruments. Ensure the specific suffix matches the required packaging and environmental compliance standards. Confirm that the 16-pin SOIC footprint aligns with the target PCB layout before finalizing procurement orders.

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Selection Notes

Select this component when a single source needs to drive multiple loads using M-LVDS signaling. It is appropriate for systems requiring low skew and high noise immunity. Consider the DS91M124 variant if LVCMOS or LVTTL inputs are required instead of LVDS.

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Part Context

This part belongs to the DS91M125 series of LVDS interface devices. It is designed to extend the reach of LVDS signals while providing fan-out capabilities. The device is commonly used in digital communication systems where signal integrity over long traces is critical.

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Replacement Considerations

The DS91M124TMA/NOPB serves as a functional alternative but accepts LVCMOS/LVTTL inputs rather than LVDS. Verify input compatibility before substitution.
