Description
The FIN3385 and FIN3383 transform 28-bit wide
parallel LVTTL (Low-Voltage TTL) data into four serial
LVDS (Low Voltage Differential Signaling) data streams.
A phase-locked transmit clock is transmitted in parallel
with the data stream over a separate LVDS link. Every
cycle of transmit clock, 28 bits of input LVTTL data are
sampled and transmitted.
The FIN3386 and FIN3384 receive and convert the 4/3
serial LVDS data streams back into 28/21 bits of LVTTL
data. Refer to Table 1 for a matrix summary of the
serializers and deserializers available. For the FIN3385,
at a transmit clock frequency of 85MHz, 28-bits of
LVTTL data are transmitted at a rate of 595Mbps per
LVDS channel. These chipsets solve EMI and cable
size problems associated with wide and high-speed TTL
interfaces.

2. TxCLKOut± settles at a free-running frequency
when the part is powered up, /PwrDn is HIGH,
and the TxCLKIn is a steady logic level (LOW /
HIGH / High-Impedance).

Transmitter and Receiver Power-Up / Power-Down Operation Truth Tables
The outputs of the transmitter remain in the high-impedance state until the power supply reaches 2V. The following
table shows the operation of the transmitter during power-up and power-down and operation of the /PwrDn pin.

Notes:
3. If the transmitter is powered up, /PwrDn is inactive HIGH, and the clock input goes to any state LOW, HIGH, or
high-impedance; the internal PLL goes to a known low frequency and stays until the clock starts normal
operation again.

Notes:
4. If the input is terminated and un-driven (high-impedance) or shorted or open (fail-safe condition).
5. For /PwrDn or fail-safe condition the RxCLKOut pin goes LOW for Panel Link devices and HIGH for channel
link devices.
6. Shorted means (± inputs are shorted to each other, or ± inputs are shorted to each other and ground or V
CC
, or
either ± inputs are shorted to ground or V
CC
) with no other current/voltage sources (noise) applied. If the V
ID
is
still in the valid range (greater than 100mV) and V
CM
is in the valid range (0V to 2.4V), the input signal is still
recognized and the part responds normally.
