SN65LVDT101DGKR

Overview

The SN65LVDT101DGKR is a low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) translator and repeater manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features one driver and one receiver, supporting data rates up to 2 Gbps. The device accepts CML, LVDS, or LVPECL input signals and converts them to LVPECL outputs. It operates on a single 3.3 V supply with a voltage range of 3 V to 3.6 V. The component is housed in an 8-pin VSSOP package and functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Typical propagation delay is 0.9 ns, with a maximum power dissipation of 377 mW.

Feature Summary

• Translates between multiple input standards including CML, LVDS, and LVPECL to LVPECL output
• Supports high-speed data transmission up to 2 Gbps
• Operates from a single 3.3 V power supply

Applications

• High-speed serial communication interfaces
• Data acquisition systems requiring signal translation
• Test and measurement equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'DGKR' confirms the VSSOP-8 package and tape-and-reel packaging format. Ensure the design supports LVPECL output requirements, as this device translates inputs to LVPECL rather than standard LVDS. Confirm thermal management for the specified power dissipation in the target application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing between different differential signaling standards such as converting CML or LVDS sources to LVPECL loads. It is suitable for applications requiring a single-channel translator with high data rate capabilities. Consider the VSSOP-8 package constraints and the specific output drive requirements of the downstream LVPECL circuitry.

Part Context

This part belongs to the SN65LVDT101 family of LVDS translators and repeaters. It is functionally similar to the SN65LVDT100 but provides LVPECL outputs instead of LVDS outputs. Other variants in the series include the SN65LVDT101D (SOIC package) and SN65LVDT101DGK (VSSOP tube).

Replacement Considerations

SN65LVDT101D offers the same functionality in an SOIC-8 package. SN65LVDT101DGK provides the same electrical characteristics in a VSSOP-8 tube package.
