RHFLVDS42K01V

RHFLVDS42K01V is the QML-V flight-model ordering code for the STMicroelectronics RHFLVDS42 — a quad LVDS receiver in a ceramic Flat-16 package, specified for space applications with four differential channels receiving at up to 600 Mbps, total ionizing dose performance of 300 krad and operation from −55 °C to +125 °C. The K01V suffix is the procurement-critical detail: it denotes the QML-V qualified flight version with gold lead finish. Two sibling codes belong on this page for orientation, not as substitutes: RH-LVDS42K1 is the engineering model for development and prototyping, and RHFLVDS42K02V is the QML-V flight variant with solder-dipped lead finish — finish and qualification paperwork differ, so a flight BOM locked to K01V must not be filled with K02V or the engineering model without a formal deviation. The benefit of a rad-hard quad receiver is board-level: one Flat-16 device terminates four high-speed LVDS links between space-grade FPGAs, serializers and payload electronics with a documented radiation and qualification pedigree. Selection advice: confirm the lead-finish requirement and the QML-V documentation package (including lot traceability expectations) in the RFQ itself, since for flight hardware the paperwork is part of the deliverable, and check channel mapping and fail-safe behavior against the ST datasheet before layout. Parameters verified against STMicroelectronics documentation.
