THCV218-B

Overview

The THCV218-B is a V-by-One® HS deserializer manufactured by THine Solutions, Inc. It converts four high-speed serial input channels into twenty-four parallel LVDS output lines. The device operates with a single 1.8V power supply and supports data rates up to 3.4Gbps per lane. It is housed in a 128-pin TQFP package measuring 14x14mm. The component functions within an ambient temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.

Feature Summary

• Supports V-by-One® HS interface protocol for high-speed signal reception
• Converts serialized data streams into parallel LVDS outputs
• Designed for low voltage operation at 1.8V

Applications

• High-definition camera modules
• Automotive display systems
• Industrial imaging equipment

Procurement Notes

This component has been officially discontinued by the manufacturer due to declining demand. Last-time-buy orders must be submitted before July 24, 2025. Orders placed after this deadline will not be accepted. Verify current stock availability through authorized distributors immediately if procurement is required for final assembly.

Selection Notes

Designers should evaluate the THCV220 as a potential alternative component. The THCV220 is explicitly identified as the replacement product but is not a drop-in replacement. Engineers must review the specific pinout and functional differences between the two models to ensure compatibility with existing circuit designs.

Part Context

THine Electronics, Inc. issued an End-of-Life notice for the THCV218 series. The discontinuation decision was driven by reduced market demand for this specific model. The notification applies to all variants within the THCV218 family, including the THCV218-B suffix.

Replacement Considerations

The THCV220 is the designated alternative product. It is not a drop-in replacement; schematic and layout modifications are likely necessary during the transition process.
