3.3V Single LVDS Driver/Receiver
General Description
The MAX9164 high-speed LVDS driver/receiver is
designed specifically for low-power point-to-point appli-
cations. The MAX9164 operates from a single 3.3V
power supply, and is pin compatible with DS90LV019.
The device features an independent differential driver
and receiver.
The MAX9164 driver output uses a current-steering
configuration to generate a 3.1mA drive current. The
driver accepts a single-ended input and translates it to
LVDS signals at speeds up to 200Mbps over con-
trolled-impedance media of approximately 100Ω. The
transmission media may be printed circuit board traces
or cables. The enable logic input, DE, is used to enable
or disable the driver.
The MAX9164 receiver detects a differential input as
low as 100mV and translates it to single-ended output
at speeds up to 200Mbps. The enable logic input,
RE,
is used to enable or disable the receiver.
Inputs and outputs conform to the ANSI TIA/EIA-644
LVDS standard. The MAX9164 is offered in 14-lead SO
and TSSOP packages, and is specified for operation
from -40°C to +85°C.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
