Product details
Overview
SN65LVDS125ADBTR from Texas Instruments is a 4×4 non-blocking LVDS crosspoint switch IC used for high-speed signal routing in telecom, datacom, and HDTV video systems. It supports signaling rates up to 1.5 Gbps per channel, operates from a single 3.3-V supply, and features 900-ps typical propagation delay with ≤150-ps channel-to-channel output skew.
For engineers reviewing the SN65LVDS125ADBTR datasheet, SN65LVDS125ADBTR pinout, SN65LVDS125ADBTR application, or SN65LVDS125ADBTR equivalent, key selection criteria include differential input hysteresis (25 mV), LVDS/PECL/CML input compatibility, 4:1 multiplexer per output, and operation across –40°C to 85°C.
Technical Context
The SN65LVDS125ADBTR implements fully differential internal signal paths to minimize skew and enable stable 1.5-Gbps operation. Its non-blocking architecture allows independent 4:1 input selection per output via S10–S41 control pins, with each output driver supporting LVDS-compliant differential swing (247–454 mV) and common-mode voltage (1.125–1.375 V).
Input compatibility spans LVDS, LVPECL, and CML logic families, with differential input thresholds of ±100 mV and 25-mV hysteresis. Output disable (1DE–4DE) enables individual channel tri-state control, while propagation delay variation remains ≤50 ps between rising/falling edges (tsk(p)) and ≤150 ps across channels (tsk(o)).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Signaling Rate | Up to 1.5 Gbps per channel - supports SMPTE 292 HDTV video (1.485 Gbps) and OC-12 clock distribution (622 MHz). |
| Propagation Delay | 700–1200 ps - ensures tight timing alignment in multi-channel clock muxing and high-speed routing applications. |
| Differential Output Voltage | 247–454 mV - meets ANSI TIA/EIA-644-A LVDS standard for robust noise margin and interconnect integrity. |
| Input Voltage Threshold Hysteresis | 25 mV - improves noise immunity against ground bounce and crosstalk in dense PCB layouts. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 3.0–3.6 V - compatible with standard 3.3-V system rails and tolerant of typical power rail variation. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and telecom infrastructure environments without derating. |
| Channel-to-Channel Skew | ≤150 ps - enables precise phase alignment across four parallel outputs in timing-critical switching. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-38 package (DBT), 9.75 mm × 4.45 mm × 1.2 mm max height, moisture sensitivity level 2 (260°C peak reflow, 1-year floor life).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A–4A, 1B–4B | LVDS differential input pairs | Accepts true differential signals; electrically compatible with LVPECL and CML via internal biasing. |
| 1Y–4Y, 1Z–4Z | LVDS differential output pairs | Delivers compliant LVDS output swing (247–454 mV) and common-mode voltage (1.125–1.375 V). |
| 1DE–4DE | Output disable control inputs | Active-high; places corresponding Y/Z output pair into high-impedance state for dynamic channel isolation. |
| S10–S41 | Input select control bits | Two-bit per-output control (S10/S11 for output 1, etc.) selects one of four input pairs for routing. |
| VCC, GND | Power and ground terminals | Single 3.3-V supply; multiple VCC/GND pins reduce power delivery impedance and improve PSRR. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Non-blocking 4×4 crosspoint | Each output independently routes any of four differential inputs - eliminates contention in multi-source clock/data fanout. |
| LVDS standard compliance | Fully conforms to ANSI TIA/EIA-644-A - guarantees interoperability with industry-standard LVDS transceivers and receivers. |
| Multi-family input compatibility | Accepts LVDS, LVPECL, and CML signals without external level-shifting - simplifies interface design in mixed-signal systems. |
| Low channel skew | ≤150 ps max output skew - preserves signal integrity in parallel high-speed links such as video pixel buses or SerDes lanes. |
| Individual output disable | Four dedicated DE pins enable per-channel shutdown - supports dynamic power management and hot-swap isolation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LVDS crosspoint switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN65LVDT125ADBTR | Includes integrated 110-Ω differential termination resistors on all inputs; otherwise identical pinout, timing, and electrical specs. | Reduces board space and external component count in space-constrained modules but increases input loading (90–132 Ω vs. high-Z for SN65LVDS125ADBTR). | Select SN65LVDT125ADBTR when board layout area is limited and source drivers can drive terminated loads; use SN65LVDS125ADBTR when interfacing with unterminated or high-impedance sources. |
| MAX9156ESE+ | 3.3-V 4×4 LVDS crosspoint with 1.25-Gbps max rate, 1.2-ns max propagation delay, and no integrated termination. | Lower speed ceiling and higher skew (250 ps) limit suitability to non-SMPTE/non-OC-12 applications; pinout incompatible. | Consider MAX9156ESE+ only for cost-sensitive, lower-speed (<1.25 Gbps) designs where TI's thermal or jitter specs are not required. |
Compared with SN65LVDT125ADBTR, the SN65LVDS125ADBTR offers higher design flexibility for unterminated sources and tighter skew control, while the MAX9156ESE+ trades performance for broader vendor availability at reduced bandwidth - making SN65LVDS125ADBTR optimal for SMPTE 292 and OC-12 timing-critical routing.

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by the SN65LVDS125ADBTR?
The SN65LVDS125ADBTR supports signaling rates up to 1.5 Gbps per channel, validated with 223-1 PRBS patterns and confirmed for SMPTE 292 HDTV video (1.485 Gbps) and OC-12 clock distribution (622 MHz). This rating holds across the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and supply voltage (3.0–3.6 V).
Does the SN65LVDS125ADBTR include integrated termination resistors?
No, the SN65LVDS125ADBTR does not include integrated 110-Ω termination resistors. That feature is exclusive to the pin-compatible SN65LVDT125ADBTR variant. The SN65LVDS125ADBTR requires external 100-Ω differential termination at receiver inputs to meet ANSI TIA/EIA-644-A LVDS specifications.
Can the SN65LVDS125ADBTR accept LVPECL or CML inputs directly?
Yes, the SN65LVDS125ADBTR inputs are electrically compatible with LVPECL and CML signal levels without external level-shifting circuitry. Its input stage accepts common-mode voltages from 0 V to 3.3 V and differential swings down to ±100 mV, enabling direct connection to LVPECL (VOH ≈ VCC–1.3 V) and CML (VOH ≈ VCC–0.2 V) sources.
What is the function of the S10–S41 pins on the SN65LVDS125ADBTR?
The S10–S41 pins are 2-bit-per-output select controls: S10/S11 configure output 1 (1Y/1Z), S20/S21 configure output 2 (2Y/2Z), and so on. Each pair selects one of four input differential pairs (1A/1B through 4A/4B) to route to its associated output, implementing independent 4:1 multiplexing per channel in the SN65LVDS125ADBTR's non-blocking architecture.
How does the SN65LVDS125ADBTR handle output disable functionality?
The SN65LVDS125ADBTR provides four dedicated active-high output disable inputs (1DE–4DE), one per output pair. Asserting a DE pin places the corresponding Y/Z output pair into a high-impedance state, allowing dynamic channel isolation during system reconfiguration or fault recovery without affecting other active outputs.
