Analog Devices CN0256 Reference Design EVAL-CN0256-EBZ

Evaluation Board for Isolated LVDS Interface Circuit

This Analog Devices evaluation board demonstrates the isolation of an LVDS interface. The advantages of isolating LVDS interfaces include protection against fault conditions (safety isolation) and improving robustness (functional isolation). The circuit is an ideal solution for many instrumentation, automation and control applications.

The following devices are included on the EVAL-CN0256-EBZ evaluation board:

ADN4663 Dual Channel LVDS Driver
ADN4664 Dual Channel LVDS Receiver
ADuM3442 Quad Channel Digital Isolator
ADuM5000 Isolated DC-to-DC Converter

LVDS Communication

Low Voltage Differential Signaling, or LVDS, is an electrical signaling system that can run at very high speeds over cheap, twisted-pair copper cables.

Applications: Firewire, SATA, SCSI
