Working Principles

The SN65LBC184DRG4 is a transceiver IC that utilizes LVDS technology to transmit and receive digital data over long distances. It operates on a 3.3V supply voltage and supports data rates up to 400 Mbps. The device converts parallel data into serial LVDS signals for transmission and vice versa.

LVDS technology provides several advantages, including low power consumption, high noise immunity, and reduced EMI. The differential signaling scheme used by LVDS ensures robust communication even in noisy environments. The SN65LBC184DRG4 also incorporates fail-safe biasing, which guarantees a known output state when the inputs are open or shorted.
