Description
The GX4002 is a low-power, high-speed 2 x 2 crosspoint
switch, with robust signal conditioning circuits for driving
and receiving high-speed signals through backplanes.
The device consumes as low as 600mW of power (typical)
with all channels operational. Unused portions of the chip
can be turned off in order to further reduce power
consumption.
The signal conditioning features of the GX4002 include
per-input clock and data recovery (CDR), programmable
equalization and per-output programmable de-emphasis.
The input equalizer removes ISI jitter—typically caused by
PCB trace losses—by opening the input data eye in
applications where long PCB traces are used. The
integrated CDR “resets” the jitter budget, effectively
erasing the signal distortion that can occur during
transmission.
Output pre-emphasis capability provides a boost of the
high-frequency content of the output signal, such that the
data eye remains open after passing through a long
interconnect of PCB traces and connectors.
The GX4002 features an integrated analog-to-digital
converter, which, through the serial interface, provides
digital diagnostic information about supply voltage and die
temperature.
The GX4002 device is packaged in a small-outline 5mm ×
5mm 32-pin, high-frequency QFN package with exposed
pad.
The GX4002 is Pb-free, and the encapsulation compound
does not contain halogenated flame retardant. This
component and all homogeneous sub components are
RoHS-compliant.
