SN65MLVD2DRBR LVDS Receiver Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SN65MLVD2DRBR is an active LVDS (Low-Voltage Differential Signaling) multipoint receiver IC manufactured by Texas Instruments. This device functions as a 0/1 receiver in 8-SON (3x3) surface mount packaging and is classified as an interface component. The part is currently in active production status with 37,850 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, and compliance certifications are maintained across the product line.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the SN65MLVD2DRBR are qualified based on the following criteria:

Electrical Equivalence: All substitute parts maintain identical protocol (LVDS, Multipoint), receiver configuration (0/1), data rate (250 Mbps), receiver hysteresis (25 mV), supply voltage range (3V to 3.6V), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C).

Mechanical Compatibility: All substitute parts use the same package type (8-VDFN Exposed Pad) and supplier device package (8-SON 3x3), ensuring pin-for-pin compatibility and identical PCB footprints.

Compliance & Certification: All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, identical MSL rating (2, 1 Year), and REACH unaffected status.

Packaging Variation: Substitutes may differ in packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape & Digi-Reel), which does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—SN65MLVD2DRBR, SN65MLVD2DRBT, and SN65MLVD3DRBT—are functionally equivalent for LVDS multipoint receiver applications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

Availability: SN65MLVD2DRBR offers the highest inventory level (37,850 units), making it the primary choice for high-volume production. SN65MLVD2DRBT and SN65MLVD3DRBT are suitable for lower-volume requirements or as secondary sources.

Packaging Requirements: SN65MLVD2DRBR and SN65MLVD2DRBT are supplied in Tape & Reel format, suitable for automated assembly lines. SN65MLVD3DRBT is available in Cut Tape and Digi-Reel format, appropriate for manual assembly or smaller batch operations.

Compliance Status: All parts maintain identical ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory requirements are met across all substitution options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are SN65MLVD2DRBT and SN65MLVD3DRBT pin-for-pin compatible with SN65MLVD2DRBR?

A: Yes. All three parts use the 8-SON (3x3) package with 8-VDFN Exposed Pad configuration, ensuring identical pinout and PCB footprint compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between SN65MLVD2DRBT and SN65MLVD3DRBT?

A: The primary difference is the packaging format. SN65MLVD2DRBT is supplied in Tape & Reel format, while SN65MLVD3DRBT is supplied in Cut Tape and Digi-Reel format. Electrically and mechanically, both parts are equivalent. The base product numbers differ (65MLVD2 versus 65MLVD3), but electrical specifications remain identical.

Q: Can I substitute SN65MLVD2DRBR with either SN65MLVD2DRBT or SN65MLVD3DRBT in production?

A: Yes. All three parts meet identical electrical specifications, operating conditions, and compliance requirements. Substitution is valid for any application requiring a 250 Mbps LVDS multipoint receiver in the 8-SON package.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. Packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape & Digi-Reel) affects only handling and assembly logistics, not electrical or thermal performance.

Q: Are all parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. SN65MLVD2DRBR, SN65MLVD2DRBT, and SN65MLVD3DRBT are all ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating 2 (1 Year).
