The intended application of this device and signaling technique is for point-to-point or multidrop baseband data transmission over controlled impedance media of approximately 100 . The transmission media may be printed circuit board traces, backplanes, or cables. The large number of drivers integrated into the same substrate along with the low pulse skew of balanced signaling, allows extremely precise timing alignment of the signals repeated from the input. This is particularly advantageous in system clock distribution. The SN65LVDS116 is characterised for operation from 40C to 85C.
