The SN75LVDS84A FlatLink transmitter contains three 7-bit parallel-load serial-out shift registers, and four
low-voltage differential signaling (L VDS) line drivers in a single integrated circuit. These functions allow 21 bits
of single-ended L VTTL data to be synchronously transmitted over 3 balanced-pair conductors for receipt by a
compatible receiver, such as the SN75LVDS82 or SN75LVDS86/86A.
When transmitting, data bits D0 – D20 are each loaded into registers of the ’LVDS84A upon the falling edge.
The internal PLL is frequency-locked to CLKIN and then used to unload the data registers in 7-bit slices. The
three serial streams and a phase-locked clock (CLKOUT) are then output to L VDS output drivers. The frequency
of CLKOUT is the same as the input clock, CLKIN.
The ’L VDS84A requires no external components and little or no control. The data bus appears the same at the
input to the transmitter and output of the receiver with the data transmission transparent to the user(s). The only
user intervention is the possible use of the shutdown/clear (SHTDN
) active-low input to inhibit the clock and shut
off the L VDS output drivers for lower power consumption. A low-level on this signal clears all internal registers
to a low level.
The SN75LVDS84A is characterized for operation over ambient free-air temperatures of 0_C to 70_C.
