Figure 15. Typical LVDS Eyepattern
A generally accepted range of jitter at the receiver inputs that allows data recovery is 5% to 20% of the unit
interval (data pulse width). Table 1 shows the signaling rate achieved on various cables and lengths at a 5%
eyepattern jitter with a typical LVDS driver.

Cable A: CAT 3, specified up to 16 MHz, no shield, outside conductor diameter () 0.52 mm
Cable B: CAT 5, specified up to 100 MHz, no shield, 0.52 mm
Cable C: CAT 5, specified up to 100 MHz, taped over all shield, 0.52 mm
Cable D: CAT 5 (exceeding CAT 5), specified up to 300 MHz, braided over all shield plus taped individual shield for any
pair, 0.64 mm (AWG22)
Cable E: CAT 5 (exceeding CAT 5), specified up to 350 MHz, 0.64 mm (AWG22), no shield
Cable F: CAT 5 (exceeding CAT 5), specified up to 350 MHz, self-shielded, 0.64 mm (AWG22)
During synchronous parallel transfers, skew between the data and clock lines will also reduce the timing margin.
This must be accounted for in the system timing budget. Fortunately, the low output skew of this LVDS driver
will generally be a small portion of this budget.
