Quad Driver
ISL35411
The ISL35411 is a quad de-emphasis driver with
extended functionality for advanced protocols operating
with line rates up to 11.1 Gbps such as InfiniBand (QDR)
and 40G Ethernet (40GBASE-CR4/SR4). The ISL35411
is a high-speed driver/limiting amplifier with built in
de-emphasis to drive twin-axial copper cables and
compensate for the frequency dependent attenuation of
PCB traces such as the SFI channel in the 10G SFP+
specification (SFF-8431).
Used in conjunction with Intersil’s ISL36411 receive-side
equalizer, ISL35411 enables active copper cable
assemblies that support 10G serial data transmission
over >15m of twin-axial copper cables.
Operating on a single 1.2V power supply, the ISL35411
enables per channel throughputs of 10Gbps to 11.1Gbps.
The ISL35411 uses current mode logic (CML)
input/output and is packaged in a 4mmx7mm 46 lead
QFN.
