The DS92LV242x chipset translates a parallel 24–bit LVCMOS data interface into a single
high-speed CML serial interface with embedded clock information. This single serial stream
eliminates skew issues between clock and data, reduces connector size, and reduces interconnect
cost for transferring a 24-bit or less bus over FR-4 printed-circuit board backplanes and balanced
cables. In addition, the DS92LV242x chipset also features a 3-bit control bus for slow speed
signals. This allows for video and display applications with up to 24 bits per pixel
(RGB).
Programmable transmit de-emphasis, receive equalization, on-chip scrambling, and DC
balancing enables longer distance transmission over lossy cables and backplanes. The DS92LV2422
automatically locks to incoming data without an external reference clock or special sync patterns,
providing easy plug-and-go operation. EMI is minimized by the
use of low voltage differential signaling, receiver drive strength control, and spread spectrum
clocking capability.
The DS92LV242x chipset is programmable though an I2C interface
as well as through pins. A built-in, at-speed BIST feature validates link integrity and may be used
for system diagnostics. The DS92LV2421 is offered in a 48-pin WQFN, and the DS92LV2422 is offered
in a 60-pin WQFN package. Both devices operate over the full industrial temperature range of –40°C
to 85°C.
