Tool/software:
Hello,
Do you have any concerns with LVDS signals being present on the device inputs when the device is not powered?
The datasheet states, "power down high impedance on LVDS inputs," and the recommended operating conditions for receiver input voltage is GND to 3V, which is independent of VCC.
There's also a comment in the datasheet that states, "the device operates for receiver input voltages up to VCC, but exceeding VCC turns on the ESD protection circuitry which clamps the bus voltages." Could this be a long term reliability concern?
Best Regards,
Brian
