DS90C241 - National Semiconductor

DS90C241 5-35MHz DC-Balanced 24-Bit LVDS Serializer and Deserializer

The DS90C241/124 Chipset translates a 24-bit parallel bus into a fully transparent data/control LVDS serial stream with embedded clock information. This single serial stream simplifies transferring a 24-bit bus over PCB traces and cable by eliminating the skew problems between parallel data and clock paths. It saves system cost by narrowing data paths that i.

Features

pre-emphasis to boost signals over longer distances using lossy cables. Internal DC balanced encoding/decoding is used to support AC-Coupled interconnects. n User selectable clock edge for parallel data on both Transmitter and Receiver n Internal DC Balancing encode/decode
  – Supports AC-coupling interface with no external coding required n Individual power-down controls for both Transmitter and Receiver n Embedded clock CDR (clock and data recovery) on Receiver and no external source of reference clock needed n All codes RDL (random data lock) to support hot-pluggable applications n LOCK outpu.
