The DS90LV031A is a quad CMOS differential line driver designed for applications requiring ultra low power dissipation and high data rates. The device is designed to support data rates in excess of 400 Mbps (200 MHz) using Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) technology.

The DS90LV031A accepts low voltage LVTTL or LVCMOS input levels and translates them to low voltage (350 mV) differential output signals. In addition the driver supports a TRI-STATE^® function that may be used to disable the output stage, disabling the load current, and thus dropping the device to an ultra low idle power state of 13 mW typical.

The EN and EN* inputs allow active Low or active High control of the TRI-STATE outputs. The enables are common to all four drivers. The DS90LV031A and companion line receiver (DS90LV032A) provide a new alternative to high power psuedo-ECL devices for high speed point-to-point interface applications.
