Features

  • Four independent 1.0625 or 2.125 Gbit/s, bi-directional, Fibre Channel transceiver to 10 bit parallel interfaces.
  • Integrated serializer/de-serializer, clock recovery, clock synthesis, byte alignment.
  • Standalone pin configurable or software configurable.
  • No external components required to interface the high-speed signals to optics, coax, or serial backplanes.
  • Integration of passive components to minimize BOM cost.
  • Simple power supply filtering requirements.

HIGH SPEED INTERFACE

  • Provides working and protect high-speed differential I/O for redundant systems.
  • Independent 1G/2G rate selection for transmit and receive on a per channel basis without affecting the operation of channels not going through rate selection process.
  • Selectable transmit pre-emphasis and receive equalization on a per-channel basis to allow maximum reach.
  • Supports differential PECL REFCLK at 106.25 MHz.
  • Programmable output current that directly drives 50 ohms.
  • Provides internal 100 ohm differential termination on transmit and receive high-speed signals for optimal signal integrity.
  • Integrated AC coupling.
  • Lock times less than 300 bit times.

PARALLEL INTERFACE

  • Parallel interface compatible with ANSI T11.2 FC-HSPI.
  • Receive recovered clock rates of 106.25 MHz for 2.125 Gbit/s operation, and 106.25 or 53.125 MHz for 1.0625 Gbits/s operation.
  • Transmit clock rates of 106.25 MHz for 2.125 Gbit/s operation, and 106.25 MHz for 1.0625 Gbit/s operation.
  • Provides both source-simultaneous or source-centered transmit and receive parallel interface timing modes to simplify ASIC abd FPGA system interface implementations
  • Interoperates with 2.5 V SSTL-2 or 1.8 V LVCMOS levels.

TEST FEATURES

  • Supports optional 2-pin serial management interface using MDC/MDIO protocol for configuration and diagnostic access.
  • Built in self-test (BIST) via internal packet generation and checking.
  • Serial and parallel loopback modes per channel for testing and debugging.
  • Standard IEEE 1149.1 JTAG test port for boundary scan board purposes.
  • An evaluation kit (PM2377-KIT) is available for the QuadPHY FC.

PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS

  • Ultra-low power operation at 365 mW per channel using 0.18 µ CMOS technology.
  • 324 pin, 23x23 mm PBGA package with 1 mm ball pitch.
  • Designed to operate over a wide temperature range and is suited for central office equipment.

Applications

  • 1.0625 Gbit/s and 2.125 Gbit/s Fibre Channel transceivers.
  • High-speed serial backplanes.
  • Storage Area Networking Systems.
  • Work Station/Server Fibre Channel I/O.
  • Military and Industrial applications.
