The SN65LVDS388ADBT is a differential Line Receiver implements the electrical characteristics of low-voltage differential signalling (LVDS). This signalling technique lowers the output voltage levels of 5V differential standard levels (such as EIA/TIA-422B) to reduce the power, increase the switching speeds and allow operation with a 3V supply rail. Any of the differential receivers provides a valid logical output state with a ±100mV differential input voltage within the input common-mode voltage range. The input common-mode voltage range allows 1V of ground potential difference between two LVDS nodes. Additionally, the high-speed switching of LVDS signals almost always requires the use of a line impedance matching resistor at the receiving end of the cable or transmission media. The LVDT products eliminate this external resistor by integrating it with the receiver.
