Hi team,
Why we add 100ohm output terminal resistor to DS10BR150, as far as i know most applicaiton just need terminal resistor on input side.
Thanks.
Regards, Sunny

Hi Sunny,
DS10BR150 has integrated input and output 100-ohm termination. On the output side - within the FPGA, ASIC, scope, or load there should be 100-ohm termination. This is normally true for all of the high speed devices. Please note data sheet block diagram such as figures 1,2, and 5.

Hi Nasser,
Thanks for comments, yes, for output side, terminal resistor should near input of FPGA/ASIC, that means the trace should be: LVDS output driver->signal line-> terminal resistor and input of FPGA/ASIC, so there should not need terminal resistor on the output side of LVDS driver, then why we add that in DS10BR150?
Thanks.

Hi Sunny,
The driver - DS10BR150 output - should have an impedance for example 100-ohm. Otherwise, it would be high impedance and there would be reflections and all the signal energy would get reflected back.
