LVDS 21-Bit Serializers/De-Serializers
General Description
The FIN1217 and FIN1215 transform 21-bit wide parallel
LVTTL (Low Voltage TTL) data into 3 serial LVDS (Low
Voltage Differential Signaling) data streams. A phase-
locked transmit clock is transmitted in parallel with the data
stream over a separate LVDS link. Every cycle of transmit
clock 21 bits of input LVTTL data are sampled and trans-
mitted.
The FIN1218 and FIN1216 receive and convert the 3 serial
LVDS data streams back into 21 bits of LVTTL data. Refer
to Table 1 for a matrix summary of the Serializers and De-
serializers available. For the FIN1217, at a transmit clock
frequency of 85 MHz, 21 bits of LVTTL data are transmitted
at a rate of 595 Mbps per LVDS channel.
These chipsets are an ideal solution to solve EMI and cable
size problems associated with wide and high-speed TTL
interfaces.
