General Description
The DS90C363A/DS90CF363A transmitter converts 21 bits
of CMOS/TTL data into three LVDS (Low Voltage Differential
Signaling) data streams. A phase-locked transmit clock is
transmitted in parallel with the data streams over a fourth
LVDS link. Every cycle of the transmit clock 21 bits of input
data are sampled and transmitted. At a transmit clock fre-
quency of 65 MHz, 18 bits of RGB data and 3 bits of LCD
timing and control data (FPLINE, FPFRAME, DRDY) are
transmitted at a rate of 455 Mbps per LVDS data channel.
Using a 65 MHz clock, the data throughput is 170 Mbytes/
sec. The DS90C363A transmitter can be programmed for
Rising edge strobe or Falling edge strobe through a dedi-
cated pin. The DS90CF363A is fixed as a Falling edge
strobe transmitter. A Rising edge or Falling edge strobe
transmitter will interoperate with a Falling edge strobe Re-
ceiver (DS90CF364) without any translation logic.
This chipset is an ideal means to solve EMI and cable size
problems associated with wide, high speed TTL interfaces.
