FIN1019MTCX

Overview

The FIN1019MTCX is a 3.3V Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) high-speed differential driver and receiver pair manufactured by Fairchild Semiconductor. It translates LVTTL signals to LVDS levels with a typical differential output swing of 350mV and converts LVDS signals back to LVTTL using a 100mV input threshold. Designed for data rates exceeding 400Mbps, the device operates on a single 3.3V supply. Key electrical parameters include a maximum differential pulse skew of 0.5ns and a maximum propagation delay of 2.5ns. The component supports power-off protection and fail-safe features for open-circuit, shorted, or terminated conditions.

Feature Summary

• Translates between LVTTL and LVDS signaling standards for high-speed interconnects
• Provides fail-safe protection against open-circuit, shorted, and terminated line conditions
• Includes power-off protection to prevent bus contention during system power cycles

Applications

• High-speed clock distribution networks
• Data transfer links requiring low EMI and low power dissipation
• Systems compliant with TIA/EIA-644 LVDS standards

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'X' indicates tape-and-reel packaging when sourcing from distributors. Confirm RoHS compliance status as historical records may vary. Ensure the supplier provides original manufacturer documentation to validate the part number authenticity and revision level before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing LVTTL logic with LVDS transmission lines at speeds up to 400Mbps. It is suitable for designs requiring minimal PCB space due to the 14-lead package options. Consider the 3.3V operating voltage requirement and ensure the application benefits from the low electromagnetic interference characteristics inherent to differential signaling.

Part Context

This device belongs to the FIN10xx series of LVDS interface components produced by Fairchild Semiconductor. It serves as a complete transmitter and receiver pair within a single package, simplifying board layout through its flow-through pinout configuration. The series is designed to meet industry-standard LVDS specifications for reliable high-frequency communication.

Replacement Considerations

The FIN1019MTC is a compatible variant within the same product family. Verify pin compatibility and electrical parameter equivalence before substitution. Cross-reference with other LVDS driver/receiver pairs if alternative packages are required.
