DESCRIPTION
The DS125DF410 is four channel retimer with
integrated signal conditioning. The device includes a
fully adaptive Continuous-Time Linear Equalizer
(CTLE), self calibrating 5-tap Decision Feedback
Equalizer (DFE), Clock and Data Recovery (CDR),
and transmit De-Emphasis (DE) driver to enable data
transmission over long, lossy and crosstalk-impaired
highspeed serial links to achieve BER < 1×10-15.
Each channel can independently lock to data rate
from 9.8 to 12.5 Gbps, and associated sub rates (div
by 2, 4 and 8) to support a variety of communication
protocols. A 25 MHz crystal oscillator clock is used to
speed up the CDR lock process. This clock is not
used for training the PLL and does not need to be
synchronous with the serial data.
The programmable settings can be applied using the
SMBus (I2C) interface, or they can be loaded via an
external EEPROM. An on-chip eye monitor and a
PRBS generator allow real-time measurement of
high-speed serial data for system bring-up or field
tuning.
The device is offered in a RHS (QFN) 48-pin, 7 mm x
7 mm package. A flow-through pinout for the high
speed signals and a single power supply makes the
DS125DF410 easy to use.
These devices have limited built-in ESD protection. The leads should be shorted together or the device placed in conductive foam
during storage or handling to prevent electrostatic damage to the MOS gates.
