Design Considerations
S
ignaling Rate
TI offers repeaters/transla-
tors and crosspoint switches with signaling
r
ates up to 4.0 Gbps.
Jitter Reducing jitter, the deviation of a
signal timing event from its ideal position,
has become a priority for ensuring reliability
in high-speed data buses.
Skew Excessive skew, the time delta
between the actual and expected arrival
time of a clock signal, can limit the maximum
bandwidth performance and lead to data
s
ampling errors. Low skew specifications
make high-speed interconnect devices
e
xcellent for signal buffering.
Power Consumption — Low-voltage
differential signaling (LVDS) offers a low-power
alternative to ECL and PECL devices. Current-
mode drivers in LVDS produce a constant
current, which allows power consumption to
be relatively independent of frequency. The
constant current driver delivers about 3.5 mA
to a 100-W load.
Technical Information
LVDS is based on the TIA/EIA-644A
standard conceived to provide a general-
purpose electrical-layer specification for
drivers and receivers connected in a
point-to-point or multidrop interface.
