Description

The most common configuration for an LVDS connection is the one-way transmission topology. A single driver transmits data through a 100-ohm characteristic impedance transmission line terminated into 100 ohms to a single receiver. For half-duplex nodes the driver?s load is reduced to 50 ohms and the resulting signal amplitude is reduced by half. The multipoint configuration is implemented with
