The DS90CF386SLC is an integrated circuit component that belongs to the DS90CF386 family. It is a serializer/deserializer (SerDes) that is designed for high-speed data transmission over long distances in applications like automotive displays, LCD panels, and other digital signage systems.
Here are some key features of the DS90CF386SLC:
1. DMA Engine: The IC component features a built-in DMA (Direct Memory Access) engine that efficiently handles the data transfer between the deserializer and host microcontroller, reducing the burden on the system's resources.
2. Serializer and Deserializer: The DS90CF386SLC functions as a Serializer/Deserializer (SerDes), converting parallel video data into a high-speed serial stream and vice versa. This enables the transmission of data over longer distances without degradation.
3. Long Distance Data Transmission: The IC supports data transmission at very high speeds, up to 135 MHz, making it suitable for long-distance digital video applications. It utilizes a low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) technology to ensure low noise and high signal integrity.
4. Clock Data Recovery: The DS90CF386SLC features an on-chip clock data recovery circuit that extracts the clock signal from the incoming serial data stream, eliminating the need for an external clock source. This enhances the reliability and ease of implementation
