8.1 Overview

The LMK1D210x LVDS drivers use CMOS transistors to control the output current. Therefore, proper biasing and termination are required to verify correct operation of the device and to maximize signal integrity.

The proper LVDS termination for signal integrity over two 50Ω lines is 100Ω between the outputs on the receiver end. Either DC-coupled termination or AC-coupled termination can be used for LVDS outputs. TI recommends placing a termination resistor close to the receiver. If the receiver is internally biased to a voltage different than the output common-mode voltage of the LMK1D210x, AC-coupling must be used. If the LVDS receiver has internal 100Ω termination, external termination must be omitted.
