Dual Lane 2:1/1:2 Mux/Buffer with Equalization and
De-Emphasis
General Description
The DS64MB201 is a dual lane 2:1 multiplexer and 1:2 switch
or fan-out buffer with signal conditioning suitable for SATA/
SAS and other high-speed bus applications up to 6.4 Gbps.
The device performs both receive equalization and transmit
de-emphasis, allowing maximum flexibility of physical place-
ment within a system. The receiver's continuous time linear
equalizer (CTLE) provides a boost of up to +33 dB at 3 GHz
and is capable of opening an input eye that is completely
closed due to inter-symbol interference (ISI) induced by the
interconnect medium. The transmitter features a pro-
grammable output de-emphasis driver and allows amplitude
voltage levels to be selected from 600 mVp-p to 1200 mVp-p
to suit multiple application scenarios. The signal conditioning
settings are programmable via control pin settings or SMBus
interface.
To enable seamless upgrade from SAS/SATA 3.0 Gbps to 6.0
Gbps data rates without compromising physical reach,
DS64MB201 automatically detects the incoming data rate
and selects the optimal de-emphasis pulse width. The device
detects the out-of-band (OOB) idle and active signals of the
SAS/SATA specification and passes through with minimum
signal distortion.
