Talk:Low-voltage differential signaling

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] LVDS vs DS

I think the first section, which describes differential signaling in general, should be farmed out to a separate article on differential signaling, which can be referred to from here, RS-485, from USB, and probably from tons more places too. I'll do this in a couple of days, unless someone objects. - John Fader Dec 9, 2004

Urgh, and there's probably some merging to be done with balanced line. I'm afraid this analogy stuff is getting rather too far from my core area of expertise for me to do a terribly good job. Help! - John Fader Dec 9, 2004

I do not believe they should be merged. Differential Signaling is a concept, the idea of sending a signal on a pair of differential wires. LVDS is a standard (http://www.iec.org/online/tutorials/low_voltage/). While the current article does not go in depth, future authors could potentially expand it into covering the basic definion of LVDS timings and such, as well as all of their derivates (such as Infiniband... memory serves me its not QUITE LVDS). Combining the articles could stifle authorship for fear of making the article deviate too greatly from the broad concept of Differential Signaling. Maybe when my work load lightens up, I'll expand it myself. - Cort Ammon May 3, 2006

No merge. As above, one is a concept, another is an implementation. -- RevRagnarok ^{Talk Contrib Reverts} 16:28, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
