DS90CR217  Product Folder

The DS90CR217 transmitter converts 21 bits of CMOS/TTL data into three LVDS (Low Voltage Differential Signaling) data streams. A phase-locked transmit clock is transmitted in parallel with the data streams over a fourth LVDS link. Every cycle of the transmit clock 21 bits of input data are sampled and transmitted. The DS90CR218A receiver converts the three LVDS data streams back into 21 bits of CMOS/TTL data. At a transmit clock frequency of 85 MHz, 21 bits of TTL data are transmitted at a rate of 595 Mbps per LVDS data channel. Using a 85 MHz clock, the data throughput is 1.785 Gbit/s (223 Mbytes/sec).

This chipset is an ideal means to solve EMI and cable size problems associated with wide, high-speed TTL interfaces.
