PRODUCTION DATA
8.1.2 Multipoint Configuration
The SN65MLVD047A is designed to meet or exceed the requirement of the TIA/EIA−899 (M−LVDS) standard, which allows multipoint communication on a shared bus.
Multipoint is a bus configuration with multiple drivers and receivers present. An example is shown in Figure 8-1. The figure shows transceivers interfacing to the bus, but a combination of drivers, receivers, and transceivers is also possible. Termination resistors need to be placed on each end of the bus, with the termination resistor value matched to the loaded bus impedance.
