3.125 Gbps 4x4 LVDS Crosspoint Switch with Transmit Pre-emphasis
and Receive Equalization
The DS25CP104 is a 3.125 Gbps 4x4 LVDS crosspoint switch optimized for high-speed signal routing and switching over lossy FR-4 printed circuit board backplanes and balanced cables.
Fully differential signal paths ensure exceptional signal integrity and noise immunity. The non-blocking architecture allows connections of any input to any output or outputs. The switch configuration can be accomplished via external pins or the System Management Bus (SMBus) interface.
The DS25CP104 features four levels (Off, Low, Medium, High) of transmit pre-emphasis (PE) and four levels (Off, Low, Medium, High) of receive equalization (EQ) settable via the SMBus interface. Off and Medium PE levels and Off and Low EQ levels are settable with the external pins. In addition, the SMBus circuitry enables the loss of signal (LOS) monitors that can inform a system of the presence of an open inputs condition
(e.g. disconnected cable).
Wide input common mode range allows the switch to accept signals with LVDS, CML and LVPECL levels; the output levels are LVDS. A very small package footprint requires a minimal space on the board while the flow-through pinout allows easy board layout. Each differential input and output is internally terminated with a 100Ω resistor to lower device insertion and return losses, reduce component count and further minimize
board space.
主要特性:
■ DC - 3.125 Gbps low jitter, low skew, low power operation
■ Pin and SMBus configurable, fully differential, nonblocking architecture
■ Pin (two levels) and SMBus (four levels) selectable preemphasis and equalization eliminate ISI jitter
■ Wide Input Common Mode Range enables easy interface to CML and LVPECL drivers
■ LOS circuitry detects open inputs fault condition
■ On-chip 100Ω input and output termination minimizes insertion and return losses, reduces component count and minimizes board space
■ 8 kV ESD on LVDS I/O pins protects adjoining components
■ Small 6 mm x 6 mm LLP-40 space saving package
The DS25CP104EVK is an evaluation kit designed for demonstrating performance of
DS25CP104, a 3.125 Gbps 4x4 LVDS Crosspoint Switch with Transmit Pre-emphasis
and Receive Equalization. The evaluation kit is comprised of the DS25CP104 with its
associated input and output SMA connectors and jumpers to manually select the desired pre-emphasis or equalization. The kit also includes an integrated USB to SMBus conversion circuit to control the SMBus with a PC, and three FR4 striplines (15” (38.1cm), 30” (76.2cm), and 60” (152.4cm) ) to exercise the devices’ signal conditioning features (pre-emphasis and equalization).
The purpose of this document is to familiarize the user with the DS25CP104EVK, to
suggest test setup procedures and instrumentation to test the device optimally, and to
guide the user through some typical measurements that demonstrate the performance of the DS25CP104 in typical applications.
