The CL12491M8TIP160 transmitter converts parallel RGB data and 4bits of HYNC,VSYNC,DE and Control) of CMOS parallel data into serial LVDS data streams. A phase-locked clock is transmitted in parallel with the data streams over a dedicated LVDS link. The polarity of differential signals for each data lane can be controlled. The transmit clock frequency of 160MHz, 24bits RGB data, and 4bits LCD timing & control data (HSYNC, VSYNC, DE,Control1) are transmitted at the rate of 1.12Gbps per LVDS data lane. The CL12491M8TIP160 transmitter is an ideal means to solve EMI and cable size issues associated with high-speed CMOS interface.
The CL12491M8TIP160 has integrated PLL with spread spectrum clock option. The targeted SSC modulating frequency is designed to be in the range of 10KHz ~ 30KHz, with modulation depth up to 3.1%, centered spread.
* This IP can also be optimized for single-link use.
* Porting is also possible for processes other than the target process.
