DS92LV1212TMSA/NOPB

Overview

The DS92LV1212TMSA/NOPB is a high-speed serializer manufactured by Texas Instruments, designed for parallel-to-serial data conversion. It accepts five LVDS inputs and converts them into a single CML output stream with a maximum data rate of 2.1 Gbps. The device operates on dual power supplies: 3 V to 3.6 V for I/O and 1.71 V to 1.89 V for the core. It supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C and is housed in a 36-WQFN package measuring 6x6 mm.

Feature Summary

• Performs serializing functions for parallel LVDS input signals
• Supports random lock initialization without requiring SYNC patterns
• Provides clock recovery capabilities for open-loop operation

Applications

• Hot insertion into running backplanes
• Applications requiring deserializer operation without special SYNC patterns
• High-speed parallel data transmission systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix TMSA against the official datasheet to confirm package type and tape-and-reel configuration. Ensure the NOPB designation aligns with current RoHS compliance requirements. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributors to confirm authenticity and avoid counterfeit components.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a serializer is required for five-channel LVDS inputs. Verify that the system can support the dual voltage requirement of 3.3 V and 1.8 V. Confirm that the CML output interface matches the receiving device's input specifications. Ensure the thermal design accommodates the operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Part Context

This device belongs to the DS92LV series of serializers from Texas Instruments. It is functionally related to other devices in the family such as the DS92LV0421, which shares similar serialization capabilities but may differ in pinout or specific electrical characteristics. The series targets high-speed digital video and data transmission applications.

Replacement Considerations

The DS92LV0421SQX/NOPB is listed as a parameter-equivalent alternative. Verify compatibility regarding pin assignments and electrical parameters before substitution.
