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' (SLMA002) for more detailed information on cable length and signal integrity.
The SN65LVDS250DBTRG4 has internal 100-ohm differential termination resistors, so no external termination resistors are required. However, it's recommended to add a 0.1-uF capacitor between the VCC and GND pins to filter the power supply and reduce noise.
The power consumption of the SN65LVDS250DBTRG4 depends on the operating frequency and the load capacitance. According to the datasheet, the typical power consumption is around 30-40 mW at a frequency of 100 MHz and a load capacitance of 10 pF. However, it's recommended to consult the datasheet and perform power consumption calculations based on the specific application requirements.
Yes, the SN65LVDS250DBTRG4 can be used in a multi-point LVDS bus configuration. However, it's recommended to follow the guidelines outlined in the TI application note 'LVDS Owner's Manual' (SLMA002) for designing a multi-point LVDS bus, including the use of repeaters, terminations, and signal routing.
The SN65LVDS250DBTRG4 has an ESD protection level of 2 kV human-body model (HBM) and 200 V machine-model (MM) on the LVDS pins, and 1 kV HBM and 100 V MM on the control pins. However, it's recommended to follow proper ESD handling and protection procedures during device handling and PCB assembly.
