MAX9110/MAX9112
General Description
The MAX9110/MAX9112 single/dual low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) transmitters are designed for
high-speed applications requiring minimum power consumption, space, and noise. Both devices support
switching rates exceeding 500Mbps while operating
from a single +3.3V supply, and feature ultra-low 250ps
(max) pulse skew required for high-resolution imaging
applications, such as laser printers and digital copiers.
The MAX9110 is a single LVDS transmitter, and the
MAX9112 is a dual LVDS transmitter.
Both devices conform to the EIA/TIA-644 LVDS standard.
They accept LVTTL/CMOS inputs and translate them to
low-voltage (350mV) differential outputs, minimizing electromagnetic interference (EMI) and power dissipation.
These devices use a current-steering output stage, minimizing power consumption, even at high data rates. The
MAX9110/MAX9112 are available in space-saving 8-pin
SOT23 and SO packages. Refer to the MAX9111/
MAX9113 data sheet for single/dual LVDS line receivers.

Detailed Description
The MAX9110/MAX9112 single/dual LVDS transmitters
are intended for high-speed, point-to-point, low-power
applications. These devices accept CMOS/LVTTL
inputs with data rates exceeding 500Mbps. The
MAX9110/MAX9112 reduce power consumption and
EMI by translating these signals to a differential voltage
in the 250mV to 450mV range across a 100Ω load while
drawing only 9.4mA of supply current for the dualchannel MAX9112.
A current-steering approach induces less ground
bounce and no shoot-through current, enhancing noise
margin and system speed performance. The output

stage presents a symmetrical, high-impedance output,
reducing differential reflection and timing distortion. The
driver outputs are short circuit current limited and enter a
high-impedance state when the device is not powered.
LVDS Operation
The LVDS interface standard is a signaling method
intended for point-to-point communication over a controlled impedance medium as defined by the EIA/TIA644 LVDS standard. The LVDS standard uses a lower
voltage swing than other common communication standards, achieving higher data rates with reduced power
consumption while reducing EMI emissions and system
susceptibility to noise.
LVDS transmitters such as the MAX9110/MAX9112
convert CMOS/LVTTL signals to low-voltage differential
signals at rates in excess of 500Mbps. The MAX9110/
MAX9112 current-steering architecture requires a resistive load to terminate the signal and complete the trans6
mission loop. Because the device switches the direction of current flow and not voltage levels, the actual
output voltage swing is determined by the value of the
termination resistor at the input of an LVDS receiver.
Logic states are determined by the direction of current
flow through the termination resistor. With a typical
3.5mA output current, the MAX9110/MAX9112 produce
an output voltage of 350mV when driving a 100Ω load.
The steady-state-voltage peak-to-peak swing is twice
the differential voltage, or 700mV (typ).
Applications Information
Supply Bypassing
Bypass VCC with high-frequency surface-mount ceramic
0.1µF and 0.001µF capacitors in parallel, as close to the
device as possible, with the smaller valued capacitor the
closest. For additional supply bypassing, place a 10µF
tantalum or ceramic capacitor at the point where power
enters the circuit board.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Single/Dual LVDS Line Drivers with
Ultra-Low Pulse Skew in SOT23
Board Layout
For LVDS applications, a four-layer PC board that provides separate power, ground, LVDS signals, and input
signals is recommended. Isolate the input and LVDS signals from each other to prevent coupling. Separate the
input and LVDS signal planes with the power and ground
planes for best results.
Maintain the distance between the differential traces to
avoid discontinuities in impedance. Avoid 90° turns and
minimize the number of vias to further prevent impedance discontinuities.
Typical Operating Circuit
+3.3V
+3.3V
Cables and Connectors
Transmission media should have a differential characteristic impedance of about 100Ω. Use cables and connectors that have matched impedance to minimize
impedance discontinuities.
Avoid the use of unbalanced cables, such as ribbon or
simple coaxial cable. Balanced cables, such as twisted
pair, offer superior signal quality and tend to generate
less EMI due to canceling effects. Balanced cables
tend to pick up noise as common mode, which is
rejected by the LVDS receiver.

Termination
Termination resistors should match the differential characteristic impedance of the transmission line. Because
the MAX9110/MAX9112 are current-steering devices,
an output voltage will not be generated without a termination resistor. Output voltage levels are dependent
upon the termination resistor value. Resistance values
may range between 75Ω and 150Ω.
Minimize the distance between the termination resistor
and receiver inputs. Use a single 1% to 2% surfacemount resistor across the receiver inputs.

Differential Traces
Output trace characteristics affect the performance of
the MAX9110/MAX9112. Use controlled impedance
traces to match trace impedance to both transmission
medium impedance and termination resistor. Eliminate
reflections and ensure that noise couples as common
mode by running the differential traces close together.
Reduce skew by matching the electrical length of the
traces. Excessive skew can result in a degradation of
magnetic field cancellation.
