Does it work just like an SPI devic= e (LVDS really is only the differential hardware layer). If it does work li= ke an SPI device then a Microchip 2210 USB-SPI with an LVDS driver and rece= iver chip may do what you want. It's 14 bit serial output in one lane (one bit a time) or two lane (two bits at a time) and frame, all LVDS output. Also has a SPI for commands. See for example LTC2268. thx, Vasile --=20 http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
