THCV218

Overview

The THCV218 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 channels. The device supports data rates up to 3.75 Gbps per lane and operates on a single 1.8V power supply. It is housed in a 64-pin TSSOP package with an operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. This component is currently discontinued due to declining demand.

Procurement Notes

This component has reached End of Life status as confirmed by the manufacturer's official notice dated January 24, 2025. No new production orders are accepted after the Last Time Buy deadline of July 24, 2025. Verify current stock availability through authorized distributors before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Designers should transition to the THCV220 as the designated alternative product. Note that the THCV220 is not a drop-in replacement; schematic and layout modifications may be required. Review the THCV220 datasheet to ensure compatibility with existing system requirements.

Part Context

The THCV218 belongs to the THine V-by-One HS family of serializers and deserializers. These components are widely used in automotive environments to transmit high-resolution video signals over long cables with minimal interference. The discontinuation reflects shifting market demands toward newer interface technologies.

Replacement Considerations

The THCV220 is the officially recommended alternative. It is not a direct pin-to-pin replacement. Engineers must evaluate electrical characteristics and pinout differences before implementation.
