3 Description
The DS125BR820 is an extremely low-power high-
performance repeater/redriver designed to support
eight channels carrying high speed interface up to
12.5 Gbps, such as 40G-CR4, 40G-KR4, SAS/SATA,
and PCIe. The receiver's continuous time linear
equalizer (CTLE) provides high frequency boost that
is programmable from 3 to 10 dB at 6 GHz (12 Gbps)
followed by a linear output driver. The CTLE receiver
is capable of opening an input eye that is completely
closed due to inter symbol interference (ISI) induced
by interconnect medium such as board traces or twin
axial-copper cables. The programmable equalization
maximizes the flexibility of physical placement within
the interconnect channel and improves overall
channel performance.
When operating in 40G-CR4/KR4, SAS/SATA, and
PCIe applications, the DS125BR820 preserves
transmit signal characteristics, thereby allowing the
host controller and the end point to negotiate transmit
equalizer coefficients. This transparency in the link
training protocol facilitates system level
interoperability and minimizes latency.
The programmable settings can be applied easily via
pin control, software (SMBus or I2C), or direct loading
from an external EEPROM. In EEPROM mode, the
configuration information is automatically loaded on
power up, thereby eliminating the need for an
external microprocessor or software driver.
