The M21418 and M21428 are high-speed, low-power, low-jitter cable drivers. They are designed to drive serial
digital video data through 75  coaxial cable typically used in SMPTE and DVB-ASI video applications. The
M21428 cable driver is optimized for performance from 143 Mbps up to 2970 Mbps, the M21418 cable driver is
optimized for performance from 143 Mbps up to 1485 Mbps. Both the M21428 and M21418 have selectable slew
rates for SD-SDI and HD-SDI applications.
The typical output rise/fall time of the M21428 is 100 ps for HD and 3G rates, the typical output rise/fall time of the
M21418 is 100 ps for HD rates. All devices have a typical set slew rate of 600 ps at SD rates. The default output
voltage swing is compliant with SMPTE 292M, 259M, 344M and 424M using a 750  ±1% resistor. The M21418
and M21428 are pin compatible. The M21418/M21428 support a maximum single ended output swing of 1600
mVp–p, when configured appropriately.
All devices are packaged in a new high performance 3x3 mm MLF package to simplify the PCB and reduce
package parasitics with resulting improvements in Output Return Loss (ORL). Both devices are available in an
RoHS compliant package, that is backwards compatible with standard JEDEC SnPb processes.
