Texas Instruments · LVDS ICs · SOIC-8
SN65LVDM179DR from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | power_in | Single 3.3-V supply pin; the driver is high impedance when VCC is below 1.5 V. |
| 2 | R | output | Receiver output: high for VID ≥ 50 mV, low for VID ≤ −50 mV, high when the inputs are open (open-circuit failsafe), and indeterminate between ±50 mV. |
| 3 | D | input | Driver input with LVTTL levels that are 5-V tolerant. |
| 4 | GND | power_in | Ground reference; the receiver tolerates up to 1 V of ground potential difference between transmitter and receiver. |
| 5 | Y | output | Non-inverting LVDS driver output; typical 340 mV across a 50-Ω load with a minimum differential magnitude of 247 mV. |
| 6 | Z | output | Inverting LVDS driver output; typical 340 mV across a 50-Ω load with a minimum differential magnitude of 247 mV. |
| 7 | B | input | Inverting receiver differential input; detects a differential voltage of 50 mV. |
| 8 | A | input | Non-inverting receiver differential input; detects a differential voltage of 50 mV. |
