DS90LV012A: Solution selection question

Part Number: DS90LV012A

Tool/software:

Hi team,

My customer is looking for receiver for HCSL to single-end.

The purpose is to translate the 100MHZ HCSL signal to single-end signal, similar to DS90LV012A model. Cause DS90LV012A is showing for LVDS, not sure that is compatible for HCSL as well.

Do you have any suggestions?

  • HCSL drivers require the 50 Ω resistors to ground, so you cannot omit them.

    The LVDS receiver still needs the 100 Ω termination resistor.

    HCSL has a very low common-mode voltage, but the DS90LV012A should be able to work with that. If you are using an LVDS receiver that requires a higher common-mode voltage, use AC coupling, and bias one input to the required voltage (typically with a 9.1 kΩ and 5.1 kΩ resistor divider from the 3.3 V supply).
