Features

GENERAL

  • Low power, 4 channel, bi-directional, full duplex, 2.125 - 3.2 Gbit/s retimer compliant with the
    10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GE) and proposed 10 Gigabit Fibre Channel (10GFC) standards.
  • Ideal for 10GE, 10GFC, and InfiniBand applications for extending the reach of high-speed serial links across a backplane.
  • Small form factor and low power are suitable for retiming inside a 10GBase LX4 optical module.
  • Four channels can be trunked to form one logical link for XAUI retimer applications.
  • 8B/10B encoders/decoders can be bypassed for retiming of scrambled NRZ data streams.
  • Supports non-blocking cross-connect to enable flexible configuration as a re-timer or cross-connect.
  • Pin-configurable for standalone operation.
  • Integrated serializer/deserializer, clock synthesis, clock recovery and 8B/10B encode/decode logic.
  • Supports differential AC-coupled PECL-level REFCLK.

HIGH-SPEED SERIAL INTERFACE

  • Programmable receiver equalization to minimize the effects of Inter Symbol Interference (ISI).
  • Programmable transmit pre-emphasis to counteract dielectric losses and allow maximum reach on printed circuit boards.
  • Integrated termination resistors to directly drive 100 ohm differential traces.

TEST FEATURES

  • Extensive control of loopback, BIST and operating modes via 802.3ae-compliant MDC/MDIO serial interface (1.2 V compliant).
  • On-chip packet generator/checker provides at-speed diagnostics.
  • Built-in error counters per channel.
  • Support for IEEE 1149.1 JTAG testing on all pins.
  • Comprehensive evaluation platform for easy customer qualification.

PHYSICAL

  • 1.2 V/2.5 V, 0.13 µm CMOS technology.
  • 196-pin CABGA (15 mm x 15 mm).
  • 1.5 W typical power at 3.2 Gbit/s.

Applications

  • High-speed Backplane Retimer.
  • Board-to-board Interconnect.
  • XAUI Link Extender.
  • XENPAK/XPAK/X2 10GBaseLX4 WWDM Optical Transceivers.
