General Description
The MAX9150 low-jitter, 10-port, low-voltage differentialsignaling (LVDS) repeater is designed for applicationsthat require high-speed data or clock distribution whileminimizing power, space, and noise. The deviceaccepts a single LVDS input and repeats the signal at10 LVDS outputs. Each differential output drives a totalof 50Ω, allowing point-to-point distribution of signals ontransmission lines with 100Ωterminations on each end.Ultra-low 120ps (max) peak-to-peak jitter (deterministicand random) ensures reliable communication in high-speed links that are highly sensitive to timing error,especially those incorporating clock-and-data recovery,or serializers and deserializers.
The high-speed switch-ing performance guarantees 400Mbps data rate andless than 100ps skew between channels while operat-ing from a single +3.3V supply.Supply current at 400Mbps is 160mA (max) and isreduced to 60µA (max) in low-power shutdown mode.Inputs and outputs conform to the EIA/TIA-644 LVDSstandard. A fail-safe feature sets the outputs high whenThe input is undriven and open, terminated, or shorted.The MAX9150 is available in a 28-pin TSSOP package.Refer to the MAX9110/MAX9112 and MAX9111/MAX9113data sheets for LVDS line drivers and receivers.
