New LVDS serializer from TI for low-power embedded processors

TI has introduced the SN75LVDS83B, a LVDS serializer that connects directly to 1.8-V powered processors and supports 8-bit color and serializes RGB data, which consolidates 24 data lines into one LVDS clock and four LVDS data pairs that connect to LCD modules. The SN75LVDS83B suitable for applications such as netbooks, mobile Internet devices, digital picture frames and others where an LVDS link from a processor to the LCD module is required.

Using TI's FlatLink technology the SN75LVDS83B eliminates the level shifters when using 1.8-V and 2.5-V logic interfaces, lowering cost and reducing board space up to 83 percent.

The SN75LVDS83B supports a pixel frequency range from 10 MHz up to high-definition (HD) screen resolutions of 135 MHz. The device is compatible with processors, including OMAP35x applications processors and digital media processors based on TI's DaVinci technology .
