In the double data rate mode, the receiver presents the data on both the rising and falling edges of RBC0. RBC1
is low impedance. The data is clocked bit 0 first, and aligned to the rising edge of RBC0. See the timing diagram
shown in Figure 4.

Figure 4. Synchronous Timing Characteristics Waveforms (DDR Mode)
The receiver clock interpolator can lock to the incoming data without the need for a lock-to-reference preset. The
received serial data rate (RXP and RXN) is at the same baud rate as the transmitted data stream, ±0.02% (200
PPM) for proper operation (see the recommended operating tables).
Receiver Word Alignment
This device uses the IEEE 802.3 gigabit ethernet defined 10-bit K28.5 character (comma character) word
alignment scheme. The following sections explain how this scheme works and how it realigns itself.
Comma Character on Expected Boundary
This device provides 10-bit K28.5 character recognition and word alignment. The 10-bit word alignment is
enabled by forcing the SYNCEN terminal high. This enables the function that examines and compares serial
input data to the 7-bit synchronization pattern. The K28.5 character is defined by 8-bit/10-bit coding scheme as a
pattern consisting of 0011111010 (a negative number beginning with disparity) with the 7 MSBs (0011111),
referred to as the comma character. The K28.5 character was implemented specifically for aligning data words.
As long as the K28.5 character falls within the expected 10-bit boundary, the received 10-bit data is properly
aligned and data realignment is not required. Figure 2 shows the timing characteristics of RBC0, RBC1, SYNC,
and RD0–RD9 while synchronized. (Note: the K28.5 character is valid on the rising edge of RBC1.)
Comma Character Not on Expected Boundary
If synchronization is enabled and a K28.5 character straddles the expected 10-bit word boundary, then word
realignment is necessary. Realignment or shifting the 10-bit word boundary truncates the character following the
misaligned K28.5, but the following K28.5 and all subsequent data is aligned properly as shown in Figure 5. The
RBC0 and RBC1 pulse widths are stretched or stalled in their current state during realignment. With this design,
the maximum stretch that occurs is 20 bit times. This occurs during a worst case scenario when the K28.5 is
aligned to the falling edge of RBC1 instead of the rising edge. Figure 5 shows the timing characteristics of the
data realignment.
