3 Description
The DS90C241 and DS90C124 chipset translates a
24-bit parallel bus into a fully transparent data and
control LVDS serial stream with embedded clock
information. This single serial stream simplifies
transferring a 24-bit bus over PCB traces or over
cable by eliminating the skew problems between
parallel data and clock paths. It saves system cost by
narrowing data paths, which in turn reduces PCB
layers, cable width, and connector size and pins.
The DS90C241 and DS90C124 incorporate LVDS
signaling on the high-speed I/O. LVDS provides a
low-power and low-noise environment for reliably
transferring data over a serial transmission path. By
optimizing the serializer output edge rate for the
operating frequency range, EMI is further reduced.
In addition, the device features pre-emphasis to boost
signals over longer distances using lossy cables.
Internal DC balanced encoding and decoding
supports AC-coupled interconnects.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The DS90C241 serializer and DS90C124 deserializer chipset is an easy-to-use transmitter and receiver pair that
sends 24-bits of parallel LVCMOS data over a single serial LVDS link from 120 Mbps to 840 Mbps throughput.
The DS90C241 transforms a 24-bit wide parallel LVCMOS data into a single high speed LVDS serial data stream
with embedded clock, and scrambles or DC balances the data to enhance signal quality to support AC coupling.
The DS90C124 receives the LVDS serial data stream and converts it back into a 24-bit wide parallel data and
recovered clock. The 24-bit serializer or deserializer chipset is designed to transmit data up to 10 meters over
shielded twisted pair (STP) at clock speeds from 5 MHz to 35 MHz.
The deserializer can attain lock to a data stream without the use of a separate reference clock source. This
greatly simplifies system complexity and overall cost. The deserializer synchronizes to the serializer regardless of
data pattern, delivering true automatic plug and lock performance. It locks to the incoming serial stream without
the requirement of special training patterns or sync characters. The deserializer recovers the clock and data by
extracting the embedded clock information and validating data integrity from the incoming data stream and then
deserializes the data. The deserializer monitors the incoming clock information, determines lock status, and
asserts the LOCK output high when lock occurs. Each has a power down control to enable efficient operation in
various applications.
8.2 Functional Block Diagram
8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Initialization and Locking Mechanism
Initialization of the DS90C241 and DS90C124 must be established before each device sends or receives data.
Initialization refers to synchronizing the PLLS of the serializer and the deserializer together. After the serializers
locks to the input clock source, the deserializer synchronizes to the serializers as the second and final
initialization step.
1. When VCC is applied to both serializer or deserializer, the respective outputs are held in TRI-STATE and
internal circuitry is disabled by on-chip power-on circuitry. When VCC reaches VCC OK (2.2 V) the PLL in
serializer begins locking to a clock input. For the serializer, the local clock is the transmit clock, TCLK. The
serializer outputs are held in TRI-STATE while the PLL locks to the TCLK. After locking to TCLK, the

Feature Description (continued)
serializer block is now ready to send data patterns. The deserializer output remains in TRI-STATE while its
PLL locks to the embedded clock information in serial data stream. Also, the deserializer LOCK output
remains low until its PLL locks to incoming data and sync-pattern on the RIN± pins.
2. The deserializer PLL acquires lock to a data stream without requiring the serializer to send special patterns.
The serializer that is generating the stream to the deserializer automatically sends random (non-repetitive)
data patterns during this step of the Initialization State. The deserializer locks onto the embedded clock
within the specified amount of time. An embedded clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit locks to the
incoming bit stream to recover the high-speed receive bit clock and re-time incoming data. The CDR circuit
expects a coded input bit stream. In order for the deserializer to lock to a random data stream from the
serializer, it performs a series of operations to identify the rising clock edge and validates data integrity, then
locks to it. Because this locking procedure is independent on the data pattern, total random locking duration
may vary. At the point when the CDR of the deserializer locks to the embedded clock, the LOCK pin goes
high and valid RCLK/data appears on the outputs. Note that the LOCK signal is synchronous to valid data
appearing on the outputs. The deserializer’s LOCK pin is a convenient way to ensure data integrity is
achieved on receiver side.
8.3.2 Data Transfer
After serializer lock is established, the inputs DIN0 to DIN23 may be used to input data to the serializer. Data is
clocked into the serializer by the TCLK input. The edge of TCLK used to strobe the data is selectable through the
TRFB pin. TRFB high selects the rising edge for clocking data and low selects the falling edge. The serializer
outputs (DOUT±) are intended to drive point-to-point connections as shown in Figure 19.
CLK1, CLK0, DCA, DCB are four overhead bits transmitted along the single LVDS serial data stream. The CLK1
bit is always high and the CLK0 bit is always low. The CLK1 and CLK0 bits function as the embedded clock bits
in the serial stream. DCB functions as the DC Balance control bit. It does not require any precoding of data on
transmit side. The DC Balance bit is used to minimize the short and long-term DC bias on the signal lines. This
bit operates by selectively sending the data either unmodified or inverted. The DCA bit is used to validate data
integrity in the embedded data stream. Both DCA and DCB coding schemes are integrated and automatically
performed within serializer and deserializer.
Serialized data and clock or control bits (24 +4 bits) are transmitted from the serial data output (DOUT±) at 28
times the TCLK frequency. For example, if TCLK is 35 MHz, the serial rate is 35 × 28 = 980 Mega bits per
second. Because only 24 bits are from input data, the serial payload rate is 24 times the TCLK frequency. For
example, if TCLK = 35 MHz, the payload data rate is 35 × 24 = 840 Mbps. TCLK is provided by the data source
and must be in the range of 5 MHz to 35 MHz nominal. The serializer outputs (DOUT±) can drive a point-to-point
connection. The outputs transmit data when the enable pin (DEN) is high, TPWDNB is high. The DEN pin may
be used to TRI-STATE the outputs when driven low.
When the deserializer channel attains lock to the input from a serializer, it drives its LOCK pin high and
synchronously delivers valid data and recovered clock on the output. The deserializer locks onto the embedded
clock, uses it to generate multiple internal data strobes, and then drives the recovered clock to the RCLK pin.
The recovered clock (RCLK output pin) is synchronous to the data on the ROUT[23:0] pins. While LOCK is high,
data on ROUT[23:0] is valid. Otherwise, ROUT[23:0] is invalid. The polarity of the RCLK edge is controlled by the
RRFB input. ROUT[23:0], LOCK, and RCLK outputs each drive a maximum of 8-pF load with 35-MHz clock.
REN controls TRI-STATE for ROUTn and the RCLK pin on the deserializer.
8.3.3 Resynchronization
If the deserializer loses lock, it automatically tries to re-establish lock. For example, if the embedded clock edge
is not detected one time in succession, the PLL loses lock and the LOCK pin is driven low. The deserializer then
enters the operating mode where it tries to lock to a random data stream. It looks for the embedded clock edge,
identifies it and then proceeds through the locking process. The logic state of the LOCK signal indicates whether
the data on ROUT is valid; when it is high, the data is valid. The system must monitor the LOCK pin to determine
whether data on the ROUT is valid.

Feature Description (continued)
8.3.4 Pre-Emphasis
The DS90C241 features a pre-emphasis function used to compensate for long or lossy transmission media.
Cable drive is enhanced with a user selectable pre-emphasis feature that provides additional output current
during transitions to counteract cable loading effects. The transmission distance is limited by the loss
characteristics and quality of the media. Pre-emphasis adds extra current during LVDS logic transition to reduce
the cable loading effects and increase driving distance. In addition, pre-emphasis helps provide faster transitions,
increased eye openings, and improved signal integrity. To enable the pre-emphasis function, the PRE pin
requires one external resistor (Rpre) to Vss to set the additional current level. Pre-emphasis strength is set
through an external resistor (Rpre) applied from min to max (floating to 3 kΩ) at the PRE pin. A lower input
resistor value on the PRE pin increases the magnitude of dynamic current during data transition. There is an
internal current source based on the following formula: PRE = (Rpre 3 kΩ); IMAX = [(1.2/Rpre) × 20]. The ability
of the DS90C241 to use the pre-emphasis feature extends the transmission distance up to 10 meters in most
cases.
The amount of pre-emphasis for a given media depends on the transmission distance of the application. In
general, too much pre-emphasis can cause over or undershoot at the receiver input pins. This can result in
excessive noise, crosstalk and increased power dissipation. For short cables or distances, pre-emphasis may not
be required. Signal quality measurements are recommended to determine the proper amount of pre-emphasis for
each application.
8.3.5 AC-Coupling and Termination
The DS90C241 and DS90C124 supports AC-coupled interconnects through integrated DC balanced
encoding/decoding scheme. To use AC coupled connection between the serializer and deserializer, insert
external AC coupling capacitors in series in the LVDS signal path as illustrated in Figure 19. The deserializer
input stage is designed for AC-coupling by providing a built-in AC bias network which sets the internal VCM to
1.2 V. With AC signal coupling, capacitors provide the AC-coupling path to the signal input.
For the high-speed LVDS transmissions, the smallest available package must be used for the AC-coupling
capacitor. This helps minimize degradation of signal quality due to package parasitics. The most common used
capacitor value for the interface is 100-nF (0.1-µF) capacitor. NPO class 1 or X7R class 2 type capacitors are
recommended. 50-WVDC must be the minimum used for the best system-level ESD performance.
The DS90C124 input stage is designed for AC-coupling by providing a built-in AC bias network which sets the
internal VCM to 1.2 V. Therefore multiple termination options are possible.
8.3.5.1 Receiver Termination Options
8.3.5.1.1 Option 1
A single, 100-Ωtermination resistor is placed across the RIN± pins (see Figure 19). This provides the signal
termination at the receiver inputs. Other options may be used to increase noise tolerance.
Figure 19. AC Coupled Application
8.3.5.1.1.1 Option 2
For additional EMI tolerance, two 50-Ωresistors may be used in place of the single 100-Ωresistor. A small
capacitor is tied from the center point of the 50-Ωresistors to ground (see Figure 20). This provides a high-
frequency low impedance path for noise suppression. Value is not critical; 4.7 nF may be used with general
applications.

For high noise environments an additional voltage divider network may be connected to the center point. This
has the advantage of a providing a DC low-impedance path for noise suppression. Use resistor values in the
range of 75 Ωto 2 KΩfor the pullup and pulldown. Ratio the resistor values to bias the center point at 1.2 V. For
example (see Figure 21), VDD = 3.3 V, Rpullup = 1.3 kΩ, Rpulldown = 750 Ω; or Rpullup = 130 Ω, Rpulldown =
75 Ω(strongest). The smaller values consume more bias current, but provide enhanced noise suppression.

8.4.1 Power Down
The power-down state is a low power sleep mode that the serializer and deserializer may use to reduce power
when no data is being transferred. The TPWDNB and RPWDNB are used to set each device into power down
mode, which reduces supply current to the µA range. The serializer enters power down when the TPWDNB pin is
driven low. In power down, the PLL stops and the outputs go into TRI-STATE, disabling load current and
reducing supply. To exit power down, TPWDNB must be driven high. When the serializer exits power down, its
PLL must lock to TCLK before it is ready for the Initialization state. The system must then allow time for
Initialization before data transfer can begin. The deserializer enters power down mode when RPWDNB is driven
low. In power down mode, the PLL stops and the outputs enter TRI-STATE. To bring the deserializer block out of
the power down state, the system drives RPWDNB high.
Both the serializer and deserializer must reinitialize and relock before data can be transferred. The deserializer
initializes and asserts LOCK high when it is locked to the input clock.
8.4.2 Tri-State
For the serializer, TRI-STATE is entered when the DEN or TPWDNB pin is driven low. This does TRI-STATE
both driver output pins (DOUT+ and DOUT). When DEN is driven high, the serializer returns to the previous
state as long as all other control pins remain static (TPWDNB, TRFB).
When you drive the REN or RPWDNB pin low, the deserializer enters TRI-STATE. Consequently, the receiver
output pins (ROUT0 to ROUT23) and RCLK enters TRI-STATE. The LOCK output remains active, reflecting the
state of the PLL. The deserializer input pins are high impedance during receiver power down (RPWDNB low) and
power-off (VCC = 0 V).
8.4.3 Progressive Turn–On (PTO)
Deserializer ROUT[23:0] outputs are grouped into three groups of eight, with each group switching about 0.5-UI
apart in phase to reduce EMI, simultaneous switching noise, and system ground bounce.

9 Applications and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
9.1.1 Using the DS90C241 and DS90C124
The DS90C241/DS90C124 serializer or deserializer (SERDES) pair sends 24 bits of parallel LVCMOS data over
a serial LVDS link up to 840 Mbps. Serialization of the input data is accomplished using an on-board PLL at the
serializer which embeds clock with the data. The deserializer extracts the clock/control information from the
incoming data stream and deserializes the data. The deserializer monitors the incoming clockl information to
determine lock status and indicates lock by asserting the LOCK output high.
9.1.2 Display Application
The DS90C241/DS90C124 chipset is intended for interface between a host (graphics processor) and a display. It
supports an 18-bit color depth (RGB666) and up to 800 × 480 display formats. In a RGB666 configuration 18
color bits (R[5:0], G[5:0], B[5:0]), Pixel Clock (PCLK) and three control bits (VS, HS, and DE) along with three
spare bits are supported across the serial link with PCLK rates from 5 MHz to 35 MHz.
9.2 Typical Application
Figure 22 shows a typical application of the DS90C241 serializer (SER). The LVDS outputs use a 100-Ω
termination and 100-nF coupling capacitors to the line. Bypass capacitors are placed near the power supply pins.
A system General Purpose Output (GPO) controls the TPWDNB pin. In this application the TRFB pin is tied High
to latch data on the rising edge of the TCLK. The DEN signal is not used and is tied High also. In this application,
the link is short; therefore, the VODSEL pin is tied Low for the standard LVDS swing. The pre-emphasis input
uses a resistor to ground to set the amount of pre-emphasis desired by the application.
Figure 23 shows a typical application of the DS90C124 deserializer (DES). The LVDS inputs use a 100-Ω
termination and 100-nF coupling capacitors to the line. Bypass capacitors are placed near the power supply pins.
A system GPO controls the RPWDNB pin. In this application, the RRFB pin is tied high to strobe the data on the
rising edge of the RCLK. The REN signal is not used and is tied high also.

Typical Application (continued)
9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
Circuit board layout and stack-up for the LVDS serializer and deserializer devices must be designed to provide
low-noise power to the device. Good layout practice also separates high frequency or high-level inputs and
outputs to minimize unwanted stray noise, feedback and interference. Power system performance may be greatly
improved by using thin dielectrics (2 to 4 mil) for power and ground sandwiches. This arrangement uses the
plane capacitance for the PCB power system and has low-inductance, which has proven effectiveness especially
at high frequencies, and makes the value and placement of external bypass capacitors less critical. External
bypass capacitors must include both RF ceramic and tantalum electrolytic types. RF capacitors may use values
in the range of 0.01 µF to 10 µF. Tantalum capacitors may be in the 2.2-µF to 10-µF range. The voltage rating of
the tantalum capacitors must be at least 5 times the power supply voltage being used.
MLCC surface mount capacitors are recommended due to their smaller parasitic properties. When using multiple
capacitors per supply pin, place the smaller value closer to the pin. A large bulk capacitor is recommended at the
point of power entry. This is typically in the 50 µF to 100 µF range and smooth low frequency switching noise. TI
recommends connecting power and ground pins directly to the power and ground planes with bypass capacitors
connected to the plane with through on both ends of the capacitor. Connecting power or ground pins to an
external bypass capacitor will increase the inductance of the path. A small body size X7R chip capacitor, such as
0603 or 0805, is recommended for external bypass. A small body sized capacitor has less inductance. The user
must pay attention to the resonance frequency of these external bypass capacitors, usually in the range from 20
MHz to 30 MHz. To provide effective bypassing, multiple capacitors are often used to achieve low impedance
between the supply rails over the frequency of interest. At high frequency, it is also a common practice to use
two vias from power and ground pins to the planes, reducing the impedance at high frequency. Use at least a
four layer board with a power and ground plane. Place LVCMOS signals away from the LVDS lines to prevent
coupling from the LVCMOS lines to the LVDS lines. Closely coupled differential lines of 100 Ωare typically
recommended for LVDS interconnect. The closely coupled lines help to ensure that coupled noise will appear as
common mode and thus is rejected by the receivers. The tightly coupled lines will also radiate less.
9.2.2.1 Noise Margin
The deserializer noise margin is the amount of input jitter (phase noise) that the deserializer can tolerate and still
reliably recover data. Various environmental and systematic factors include:
Serializer: TCLK jitter, VCC noise (noise bandwidth and out-of-band noise)
Media: ISI, VCM noise
Deserializer: VCC noise
For a graphical representation of noise margin, see Figure 18.
9.2.2.2 Transmission Media
The serializer and deserializer can be used in point-to-point configuration, through a PCB trace, or through
twisted pair cable. In a point-to-point configuration, the transmission media requires termination at both ends of
the transmitter and receiver pair. Interconnect for LVDS typically has a differential impedance of 100 Ω. Use
cables and connectors that have matched differential impedance to minimize impedance discontinuities. In most
applications that involve cables, the transmission distance is determined on data rates involved, acceptable bit
error rate and transmission medium.
The resulting signal quality at the receiving end of the transmission media may be assessed by monitoring the
differential eye opening of the serial data stream. The Receiver Input Tolerance in Switching Characteristics
Deserializer and the Differential Threshold Voltage specifications in Electrical Characteristics define the
acceptable data eye opening. A differential probe must be used to measure across the termination resistor at the
DS90C124 inputs. Figure 24 illustrates the eye opening and relationship to the receiver input tolerance and
differential threshold voltage specifications.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
An all CMOS design of the serializer and deserializer makes them inherently low power devices. Additionally, the
constant current source nature of the LVDS outputs minimize the slope of the speed versus ICC curve of CMOS
designs.

11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
Circuit board layout and stack-up for the LVDS SERDES devices must be designed to provide low-noise power
feed to the device. Good layout practice also separates high frequency or high-level inputs and outputs to
minimize unwanted stray noise pickup, feedback and interference. Power system performance may be greatly
improved by using thin dielectrics (2 to 4 mils) for power and ground sandwiches. This arrangement provides
plane capacitance for the PCB power system with low-inductance parasitics, which has proven especially
effective at high frequencies, and makes the value and placement of external bypass capacitors less critical.
External bypass capacitors must include both RF ceramic and tantalum electrolytic types. RF capacitors may use
values in the range of 0.01 µF to 0.1 µF. Tantalum capacitors may be in the 2.2-µF to 10-µF range. Voltage
rating of the tantalum capacitors must be at least 5 times the power supply voltage being used.
Surface mount capacitors are recommended due to their smaller parasitics. When using multiple capacitors per
supply pin, place the smaller value closer to the pin. A large bulk capacitor is recommend at the point of power
entry. This is typically in the 50-µF to 100-µF range and smooth low frequency switching noise. TI recommends
connecting power and ground pins directly to the power and ground planes with bypass capacitors connected to
the plane with via on both ends of the capacitor. Connecting power or ground pins to an external bypass
capacitor increases the inductance of the path.
A small body size X7R chip capacitor, such as 0603, is recommended for external bypass. Its small body size
reduces the parasitic inductance of the capacitor. The user must pay attention to the resonance frequency of
these external bypass capacitors, usually in the range of 20 MHz to 30 MHz range. To provide effective
bypassing, multiple capacitors are often used to achieve low impedance between the supply rails over the
frequency of interest. At high frequency, it is also a common practice to use two vias from power and ground pins
to the planes, reducing the impedance at high frequency.
Some devices provide separate power and ground pins for different portions of the circuit. This is done to isolate
switching noise effects between different sections of the circuit. Separate planes on the PCB are typically not
required. Pin Configuration and Functions typically provide guidance on which circuit blocks are connected to
which power pin pairs. In some cases, an external filter many be used to provide clean power to sensitive circuits
such as PLLs.
Use at least a four layer board with a power and ground plane. Place LVCMOS (LVTTL) signals away from the
LVDS lines to prevent coupling from the LVCMOS lines to the LVDS lines. Closely-coupled differential lines of
100 Ωare typically recommended for LVDS interconnect. The closely coupled lines help to ensure that coupled
noise appears as common-mode and thus is rejected by the receivers. The tightly coupled lines also radiate less.
Termination of the LVDS interconnect is required. For point-to-point applications, termination must be placed at
both ends of the devices. Nominal value is 100 Ωto match the line’s differential impedance. Place the resistor as
close to the transmitter DOUT± outputs and receiver RIN± inputs as possible to minimize the resulting stub
between the termination resistor and device.
11.1.1 LVDS Interconnect Guidelines
See AN-1108 Channel-Link PCB and Interconnect Design-In Guidelines (SNLA008) and AN-905 Transmission
Line RAPIDESIGNER© Operation and Applications Guide (SNLA035) for full details.
Use 100-Ωcoupled differential pairs
Use the S/2S/3S rule in spacings
S = space between the pair
2S = space between pairs
3S = space to LVCMOS/LVTTL signal
Minimize the number of vias
Use differential connectors when operating above 500-Mbps line speed
Maintain balance of the traces
Minimize skew within the pair
Terminate as close to the TX outputs and RX inputs as possible
Additional general guidance can be found in the LVDS Owner’s Manual available in PDF format from the TI web

(2) Eco Plan - The planned eco-friendly classification: Pb-Free (RoHS), Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt), or Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) - please check http://www.ti.com/productcontent for the latest availability
information and additional product content details.
TBD: The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been defined.
Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS requirements for all 6 substances, including the requirement that
lead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes.
Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt): This component has a RoHS exemption for either 1) lead-based flip-chip solder bumps used between the die and package, or 2) lead-based die adhesive used between
the die and leadframe. The component is otherwise considered Pb-Free (RoHS compatible) as defined above.
Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight
in homogeneous material)
(3) MSL, Peak Temp. - The Moisture Sensitivity Level rating according to the JEDEC industry standard classifications, and peak solder temperature.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) reserves the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other changes to its
semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest issue. Buyers
should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete.
TI’s published terms of sale for semiconductor products (http://www.ti.com/sc/docs/stdterms.htm) apply to the sale of packaged integrated
circuit products that TI has qualified and released to market. Additional terms may apply to the use or sale of other types of TI products and
services.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is
accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such reproduced
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions. Resale of TI products or services with statements
different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that product or service voids all express and any implied warranties for the
associated TI product or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyers and others who are developing systems that incorporate TI products (collectively, “Designers”) understand and agree that Designers
remain responsible for using their independent analysis, evaluation and judgment in designing their applications and that Designers have
full and exclusive responsibility to assure the safety of Designers' applications and compliance of their applications (and of all TI products
used in or for Designers’ applications) with all applicable regulations, laws and other applicable requirements. Designer represents that, with
respect to their applications, Designer has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards that (1) anticipate dangerous
consequences of failures, (2) monitor failures and their consequences, and (3) lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause harm and
take appropriate actions. Designer agrees that prior to using or distributing any applications that include TI products, Designer will
thoroughly test such applications and the functionality of such TI products as used in such applications.
TI’s provision of technical, application or other design advice, quality characterization, reliability data or other services or information,
including, but not limited to, reference designs and materials relating to evaluation modules, (collectively, “TI Resources”) are intended to
assist designers who are developing applications that incorporate TI products; by downloading, accessing or using TI Resources in any
way, Designer (individually or, if Designer is acting on behalf of a company, Designer’s company) agrees to use any particular TI Resource
solely for this purpose and subject to the terms of this Notice.
TI’s provision of TI Resources does not expand or otherwise alter TI’s applicable published warranties or warranty disclaimers for TI
products, and no additional obligations or liabilities arise from TI providing such TI Resources. TI reserves the right to make corrections,
enhancements, improvements and other changes to its TI Resources. TI has not conducted any testing other than that specifically
described in the published documentation for a particular TI Resource.
Designer is authorized to use, copy and modify any individual TI Resource only in connection with the development of applications that
include the TI product(s) identified in such TI Resource. NO OTHER LICENSE, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, BY ESTOPPEL OR OTHERWISE
TO ANY OTHER TI INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHT, AND NO LICENSE TO ANY TECHNOLOGY OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
RIGHT OF TI OR ANY THIRD PARTY IS GRANTED HEREIN, including but not limited to any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI products or services are used. Information
regarding or referencing third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services, or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of TI Resources may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
TI RESOURCES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND WITH ALL FAULTS. TI DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR
REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING RESOURCES OR USE THEREOF, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS, TITLE, ANY EPIDEMIC FAILURE WARRANTY AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF ANY THIRD PARTY INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY RIGHTS. TI SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR AND SHALL NOT DEFEND OR INDEMNIFY DESIGNER AGAINST ANY CLAIM,
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY INFRINGEMENT CLAIM THAT RELATES TO OR IS BASED ON ANY COMBINATION OF
PRODUCTS EVEN IF DESCRIBED IN TI RESOURCES OR OTHERWISE. IN NO EVENT SHALL TI BE LIABLE FOR ANY ACTUAL,
DIRECT, SPECIAL, COLLATERAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES IN
CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF TI RESOURCES OR USE THEREOF, AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER TI HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Unless TI has explicitly designated an individual product as meeting the requirements of a particular industry standard (e.g., ISO/TS 16949
and ISO 26262), TI is not responsible for any failure to meet such industry standard requirements.
Where TI specifically promotes products as facilitating functional safety or as compliant with industry functional safety standards, such
products are intended to help enable customers to design and create their own applications that meet applicable functional safety standards
and requirements. Using products in an application does not by itself establish any safety features in the application. Designers must
ensure compliance with safety-related requirements and standards applicable to their applications. Designer may not use any TI products in
life-critical medical equipment unless authorized officers of the parties have executed a special contract specifically governing such use.
Life-critical medical equipment is medical equipment where failure of such equipment would cause serious bodily injury or death (e.g., life
support, pacemakers, defibrillators, heart pumps, neurostimulators, and implantables). Such equipment includes, without limitation, all
medical devices identified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as Class III devices and equivalent classifications outside the U.S.
TI may expressly designate certain products as completing a particular qualification (e.g., Q100, Military Grade, or Enhanced Product).
Designers agree that it has the necessary expertise to select the product with the appropriate qualification designation for their applications
and that proper product selection is at Designers’ own risk. Designers are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory
requirements in connection with such selection.
Designer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages, costs, losses, and/or liabilities arising out of Designer’s non-
compliance with the terms and provisions of this Notice.
