DS15BR400/DS15BR401,pdf datash

The DS15BR400/DS15BR401 are four channel LVDS buffer/
repeaters capable of datarates of up to 2 Gbps. High speed
data paths and flow-through pinout minimize internal device
jitter and simplify board layout, while pre-emphasis overcomes
ISI jitter effects from lossy backplanes and cables. The
differential inputs interface to LVDS, and Bus LVDS signals
such as those on National's 10-, 16-, and 18- bit Bus LVDS
SerDes, as well as CML and LVPECL. The differential inputs
and outputs of the DS15BR400 are internally terminated with
100Ω resistors to improve performance and minimize board
space. The DS15BR401 does not have input termination resistors.
The repeater function is especially useful for boosting
signals for longer distance transmission over lossy cables and
backplanes.
