Texas Instruments LMK1D210xL Low Additive LVDS Buffers

Texas Instruments LMK1D210xL Low-Additive LVDS Buffers are low noise dual clock buffers that distribute one input to a maximum of two (LMK1D2102L), four (LMK1D2104L), six (LMK1D2106L) or eight (LMK1D2108L) LVDS outputs. The inputs can be LVDS, LVPECL, HCSL, CML, or LVCMOS. The LMK1D210xL is designed explicitly for driving 50Ω transmission lines. When driving inputs in single-ended mode, apply the appropriate bias voltage to the unused negative input pin.

The Texas Instruments LMK1D210xL buffer offers two output common mode operations (0.7V and 1.2V) for different operating supplies. The device provides flexibility in design for DC-coupled mode applications. AMP_SELA/AMP_SELB control pin can select different output amplitude LVDS (350mV) or boosted LVDS (500mV). In addition to amplitude selection, outputs can be disabled using the same pin. The part also supports the Fail-Safe Input function for the clock and digital input pins. The device further incorporates an input hysteresis, preventing random output oscillation without an input signal.
