What are LVDS?
LVDS, or Low Voltage Differential Signaling, can be referred to as a low voltage differential signal technology. It is primarily characterized by its low power consumption, low error rate, low crosstalk, and low radiation. The core technology of LVDS involves the use of a very low voltage swing high-speed differential to transmit data, enabling point-to-point or point-to-multipoint connections. The transmission medium for LVDS is typically PCB traces or balanced cables.
How does LVDS work?
The working principle of LVDS involves the transmission of data through differential signals between drivers and receivers. The source driver consists of a constant current source (typically around 3.5mA, not exceeding 4mA) driving a pair of differential signal lines. The receiver has a high DC input impedance, so almost all of the driving current flows through a 100Ω termination resistor, resulting in a voltage of approximately 350mV at the receiver input. When the source driver changes its state from high to low or vice versa, the current direction through the termination resistor changes, leading to a change in the high or low logic state at the receiver.
LVDS Harness Common problems
Wire harness is a commonly used cable assembly for high-speed data transmission, commonly found in electronic equipment, computer monitors, liquid crystal panels and other fields. Here are some common problems with LVDS harnesses: signal quality issues, harness damage, harness length limitations, contact issues, environmental interference, standard compatibility, and more
