DS99R103TSQ/NOPB

Overview

The DS99R103TSQ/NOPB is a serializer manufactured by Texas Instruments, designed for high-speed data transmission in display interface applications. It converts parallel LVCMOS data into a serial LVDS stream with a maximum data rate of 960 Mbps. The device supports 24-bit input and utilizes FPD-Link II or LVDS output signaling. It operates within a supply voltage range of 3V to 3.6V and is qualified under the AEC-Q100 standard for automotive reliability. The component is housed in a 48-WQFN package with dimensions of 7x7 mm, suitable for surface mount installation.

Feature Summary

• Serializes 24-bit parallel data into a single differential LVDS channel
• Supports DC-balanced encoding for reliable clock recovery
• Automotive grade qualification ensuring extended temperature stability

Applications

• Automotive camera link interfaces
• In-vehicle display driver connections
• ADAS sensor data transmission systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix TSQ against official documentation to confirm the temperature range and automotive qualification status. Ensure the NOPB designation indicates lead-free compliance and RoHS adherence. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest discontinuance notifications, as this series may have limited availability or end-of-life status affecting long-term supply chain stability.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a serializer is required for FPD-Link II compatible displays or cameras. Confirm that the system requires a 24-bit parallel-to-serial conversion at speeds up to 960 Mbps. Verify that the target application environment meets the specified operating temperature range and that the 48-WQFN footprint aligns with the PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the DS99R10x family of serializers from Texas Instruments, which are widely used in automotive infotainment and safety systems. It serves as the counterpart to deserializers like the DS99R104. The family provides a standardized solution for reducing trace count and EMI in vehicle wiring harnesses by transmitting high-bandwidth video data over minimal differential pairs.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitutes include the DS99R105SQ/NOPB and DS99R104TSQX/NOPB. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution. Note that some variants in this family may be discontinued; check current production status.
