Product details
Overview
DS30EA101SQE/NOPB from Texas Instruments is an adaptive cable equalizer IC designed for high-speed serial data recovery in video and data transmission systems. It supports data rates from 150 Mbps to 3.125 Gbps, delivers up to 50 dB equalization at 1.5 GHz, and operates on a single 2.5V supply with 115 mW typical power consumption. It enables extension of SD/HD video over coaxial or 100Ω differential cables in security camera and broadcast infrastructure.
For engineers reviewing the DS30EA101SQE/NOPB datasheet, DS30EA101SQE/NOPB pinout, DS30EA101SQE/NOPB application, or DS30EA101SQE/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include adaptive equalization bandwidth, LVDS output compliance, LOS/EN control logic, and WQFN-16 thermal performance under industrial temperature conditions (-40°C to +85°C).
Technical Context
The DS30EA101SQE/NOPB implements continuous-time linear equalization (CTLE) with automatic gain adaptation across 150 Mbps–3.125 Gbps, dynamically compensating for frequency-dependent loss in copper cables up to 120 meters of RG59 or 50 meters of CAT6. Its input accepts both differential (100Ω) and single-ended (75Ω) signals via AC coupling.
It features integrated LVDS outputs (100Ω internally terminated), a digital LOS detector with LVCMOS output, and an EN pin with internal pulldown for output enable/disable control. The device uses a negative-exposed-pad WQFN package where DAP = VEE, requiring connection to ground for thermal and electrical integrity.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Data Rate Range | 150 Mbps to 3.125 Gbps - supports SD, HD, and multi-gigabit video streaming without retiming or clock recovery. |
| Cable Equalization | Up to 50 dB @ 1.5 GHz - restores signal integrity over long coaxial (RG59) or twisted-pair (CAT6) runs. |
| Supply Voltage | 2.5 V ±5% - single-rail operation simplifies power design and reduces BOM count in video interface modules. |
| Power Consumption | 115 mW typical - enables thermally constrained designs such as compact IP cameras and edge video encoders. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for outdoor surveillance, industrial vision, and automotive ADAS camera links. |
| Output Interface | LVDS (100Ω internally terminated) - directly interfaces with FPGA SerDes, video processors, and display controllers without external termination. |
| Input Configuration | Differential or single-ended - supports both 75Ω coaxial and 100Ω differential cable topologies without redesign. |
Pinout & Package
DS30EA101SQE/NOPB is housed in a 4 mm × 4 mm, 0.8 mm max height, 16-pin WQFN package (RUM0016A) with exposed thermal pad connected to VEE (ground). The package requires soldering the DAP to PCB ground plane for thermal dissipation and electrical stability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 4, 7, 8, 9, 12, DAP | VEE | Negative supply / ground reference - all must be connected to low-impedance system ground for noise immunity and thermal conduction. |
| 2, 3 | IN+, IN- | Differential data input - accepts AC-coupled LVDS or CML; single-ended mode uses IN+ with IN- terminated to VEE. |
| 10, 11 | OUT-, OUT+ | LVDS differential output - 100Ω internally terminated; drives standard LVDS receivers without external resistors. |
| 13, 16 | VCC | +2.5V power supply - bypass with 1 µF ceramic capacitor near each pin for stable high-frequency operation. |
| 14 | EN | LVCMOS output enable - internal pulldown ensures outputs active by default; tie to LOS for auto-shutdown on signal loss. |
| 15 | LOS | LVCMOS loss-of-signal indicator - high = no valid input detected; used for system fault reporting or power gating. |
| 5, 6 | DNC | Do not connect - floating pins; must remain unconnected per TI design requirements. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Adaptive CTLE architecture | Real-time gain adjustment across full data rate range eliminates manual tuning and supports plug-and-play cable length variation. |
| Integrated LOS detection | Digital flag indicates absence of input signal above threshold, enabling fail-safe behavior in video security systems. |
| Configurable output enable | EN pin allows synchronous disabling of LVDS outputs during system sleep or reconfiguration without affecting bias state. |
| Single 2.5V supply operation | Reduces power conversion complexity and improves PSRR vs. dual-supply alternatives in space-constrained video modules. |
| Industrial-grade thermal design | θJA = 40°C/W with proper DAP grounding enables reliable operation at full speed in sealed enclosures up to +85°C ambient. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar adaptive equalizer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DS30BA101 | Serializer companion chip; provides programmable launch amplitude (not equalization); requires DS30EA101 for receive-side compensation. | Used on transmitter side only; cannot replace DS30EA101 in receiver roles. | Select DS30BA101 only when building full cable extender chipset; not a functional substitute for DS30EA101SQE/NOPB. |
| MAX9278 | Fixed-gain equalizer (no adaptive loop); supports 0.6–4 Gbps but lacks LOS/EN integration and consumes ~150 mW. | Requires external monitoring circuitry for signal presence detection and output control. | Choose MAX9278 only if fixed equalization suffices and system already implements discrete LOS/EN logic. |
Compared with DS30EA101SQE/NOPB, DS30BA101 serves a complementary transmit function rather than replacement, while MAX9278 trades adaptive intelligence for broader bandwidth and higher power-making DS30EA101SQE/NOPB optimal for dynamic cable-length environments requiring autonomous signal recovery.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the DS30EA101SQE/NOPB in a video transmission system?
The DS30EA101SQE/NOPB functions as an adaptive cable equalizer that restores high-frequency signal components attenuated over copper cables. It operates from 150 Mbps to 3.125 Gbps and automatically adjusts gain to compensate for losses up to 50 dB at 1.5 GHz. In a video system, DS30EA101SQE/NOPB sits on the receiver side to recover degraded SD/HD/3G-SDI or custom serial video streams before they reach the decoder or processor.
Does the DS30EA101SQE/NOPB require external termination resistors on its LVDS outputs?
No, the DS30EA101SQE/NOPB integrates 100Ω differential termination on its OUT+ and OUT− pins, eliminating the need for external resistors. This simplifies PCB layout and ensures consistent impedance matching for direct interfacing with standard LVDS receivers. External termination is only required on the input side if using single-ended configuration, where IN− must be terminated to VEE.
How does the LOS and EN functionality work together in the DS30EA101SQE/NOPB?
The DS30EA101SQE/NOPB's LOS pin asserts high when no valid input signal is detected, and EN disables the LVDS outputs when driven high. These pins can be tied together so that the output is automatically disabled during signal loss-preventing downstream logic errors or false triggering. Since EN has an internal pulldown, DS30EA101SQE/NOPB outputs remain enabled by default unless LOS pulls EN high.
What package type and thermal considerations apply to the DS30EA101SQE/NOPB?
The DS30EA101SQE/NOPB uses a 4 mm × 4 mm, 16-pin WQFN package (RUM0016A) with an exposed thermal pad (DAP) that must be soldered to a PCB ground plane. TI specifies θJA = 40°C/W; proper DAP grounding is mandatory for thermal performance and electrical stability. Without it, junction temperature rise may exceed limits under full-speed operation at +85°C ambient.
Can the DS30EA101SQE/NOPB equalize both coaxial and twisted-pair cables?
Yes, the DS30EA101SQE/NOPB supports both 75Ω coaxial (e.g., RG59) and 100Ω differential twisted-pair (e.g., CAT6) cables. Its input stage accepts either differential or single-ended signals, and its adaptive equalization algorithm responds identically regardless of cable type. At 1.5 Gbps, it supports up to 120 meters of RG59 or 50 meters of CAT6-verified in TI's SNLS404A datasheet.
