The maximum cable length depends on the specific application and the signal frequency. As a general rule, the maximum cable length for LVDS signals is around 10-15 meters at a frequency of 100 MHz. However, it's recommended to consult the TI application note 'LVDS Owner's Manual' (SLWC073) for more detailed information on cable length and signal integrity.
The SN65LVDS151DA requires a 100-ohm differential termination at the receiver end. A 100-ohm resistor can be used to terminate the LVDS lines. Additionally, it's recommended to use a series resistor (Rs) at the transmitter end to match the impedance of the transmission line and reduce reflections.
The power-up sequence for the SN65LVDS151DA is not explicitly stated in the datasheet. However, it's recommended to power up the VCC supply before the input signals to ensure proper device operation. A power-up sequence of VCC, then input signals, and finally the output enable (OE) signal is recommended.
Yes, the SN65LVDS151DA can operate with a 3.3V supply voltage. However, the device is specified to operate from 2.5V to 3.6V, and the output voltage swing may be reduced at lower supply voltages. It's recommended to consult the datasheet and application notes for more information on operating the device at 3.3V.
Skew and jitter can be handled by using a clock signal that is transmitted along with the data signals, and using a PLL or clock recovery circuit to regenerate the clock signal at the receiver end. Additionally, using a differential clock signal and a common-mode filter can help to reduce skew and jitter.
