GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The S2042 and S2043 transmitter and receiver pair
are designed to perform high-speed serial data trans-
mission over fiber optic or coaxial cable interfaces
conforming to the requirements of the ANSI X3T11
Fibre Channel specification. The chipset is select-
able to 1062, 531 or 266 Mbit/s data rates with
associated 10- or 20-bit data word.
The chipset performs parallel-to-serial and serial-to-
parallel conversion and framing for block-encoded
data. The S2042 on-chip PLL synthesizes the high-
speed clock from a low-speed reference. The S2043
on-chip PLL synchronizes directly to incoming digital
signals to receive the data stream. The transmitter
and receiver each support differential PECL-compat-
ible I/O for fiber optic component interfaces, to
minimize crosstalk and maximize data integrity. Lo-
cal loopback allows for system diagnostics. The TTL
I/O section can operate from either a +3.3V or a +5V
power supply. With a 3.3V power supply the chipset
dissipates only 1W typically.
Figure 1 shows a typical network configuration incor-
porating the chipset. The chipset is compatible with
AMCC’s S2036 Open Fiber Control (OFC) device.
