The SN65MLVD206B device is a multipoint low-voltage differential signaling (M-LVDS) line driver and receiver which is optimized to operate at signaling rates up to 200 Mbps. This device has a robust 3.3-V driver and receiver in the standard SOIC footprint for demanding industrial applications. The bus pins are robust to ESD events, with high levels of protection to human-body model and IEC contact discharge specifications.

The device combines a differential driver and a differential receiver (transceiver), which operates from a single 3.3-V supply. The transceiver is optimized to operate at signaling rates up to 200 Mbps.

The SN65MLVD206B has enhancements over similar devices. Improved features include a controlled slew rate on the driver output to help minimize reflections from unterminated stubs, resulting in better signal integrity. The same footprint definition was maintained, allowing for an easy drop-in replacement for a system performance upgrade. The devices are characterized for operation from –40°C to 85°C.

The SN65MLVD206B M-LVDS transceiver is part of the TI extensive M-LVDS portfolio.
