DESCRIPTION
The DS42BR400 is a quad 250 Mbps – 4.25 Gbps
CML transceiver, or 8-channel buffer, for use in
backplane and cable applications. With operation
down to 250 Mbps, the DS42BR400 can be used in
applications requiring both low and high frequency
data rates. Each input stage has a fixed equalizer to
reduce ISI distortion from board traces. The
equalizers are grouped in fours and are enabled
through two control pins. These control pins provide
customers flexibility where ISI distortion may vary
from one direction to another.
All output drivers have four selectable steps of de-
emphasis to compensate against transmission loss
across long FR4 backplanes. The de-emphasis
blocks are also grouped in fours. In addition, the
DS42BR400 also has loopback control capability on
four channels. All CML drivers have 50Ω termination
to VCC. All receivers are internally terminated with
differential 100Ω.
