max3981 detailed description receiver and transmitter the adaptive equalizer accepts four lanes of 3.125gbps cml digital data signals and compensates each received signal for dielectric and skin losses. a limiting amp shapes the output of the equalizer and the output driver transmits the regenerated xaui lanes as cml signals. the source impedance and termination impedance are 100 ? differential. general theory of operation internally, the max3981 is comprised of signal-detect circuitry, four matched equalizers, and one equalizer control loop. the four equalizers are made up of a mas- ter equalizer and three slave equalizers. the adaptive control is generated from only channel 1. it is assumed that all channels have the same characterization in fre- quency content, coding, and transmission length. the master equalizer consists of the following func- tions: signal detect, adaptive equalizer, equalizer con- trol, limiting and output drivers. the signal detect indicates input signal power. when the input signal level is sufficiently high, the sdet output is asserted. this does not directly control the operation of the part. the equalizer core reduces intersymbol interference (isi), compensating for frequency-dependent, media- induced loss. the equalization control detects the spectral contents of the input signal and provides a control voltage to the equalizer core, adapting it to dif- ferent media. the equalizer operation is optimized for short-run dc-balanced transmission codes such as 8b/10b codes. cml input and output buffers the input and output buffers are implemented using current -mode logic (cml). equivalent circuits are shown in figures 2 and 3. for details on interfacing with cml, see maxim application note hfan-1.0, interfacing between cml, pecl, and lvds . the common-mode voltages of the input and output are above 2.5v. ac- coupling capacitors are required when interfacing this part. values of 0.10? or greater are recommended. media equalization equalization at the input port compensates for the high- frequency loss encountered with twin-axial cable or shielded twisted pair. this part is optimized for 10ft (3m) and 3.125gbps; however, the part will reduce isi for signals spanning longer distances and functions for data rates from 2gbps to 4gbps providing that short- length balanced codes, such as 8b/10b, are used. applications information standby mode the standby state allows reduced-power operation. the ttl input, en, must be set to ttl high for normal operation. a ttl low at en forces the equalizer into the standby state. the signal en does not affect the opera- 3.125gbps xaui quad cable equalizer 6 _______________________________________________________________________________________ in1+ in1- equalizer limiting amp 2 3 4 2 3 4 2 3 4 2 3 4 2 3 4 2 3 4 out1+ out1- 2 3 4 2 3 4 en power management sdet function is independent of en sdet ttl cml signal detect ip1, in1 only max3981 functional diagram
tion of the signal detect (sdet) function. for constant operation, connect the en signal directly to v cc . signal detect with standby mode signal activity is detected on channel 1 only (in1?. when the peak-to-peak differential voltage at in1 is less than 30mvp-p, the ttl output sdet goes low. when the peak-to-peak differential voltage becomes greater than 100mvp-p, sdet is asserted high. sdet can be used to automatically force the equalizer into standby mode by connecting sdet directly to the en input. when not used, sdet should not be connected. the signal-detect function continues to operate while the part is in standby mode. while connected to the en pin, the signal detect can ?ake up?the part and resume normal operation. layout considerations circuit board layout and design can significantly affect the max3981 performance. use good high-frequency design techniques, including minimizing ground induc- tances and vias and using controlled-impedance trans- mission lines for the high-frequency data signals. signals should be routed differentially to reduce emi susceptibility and crosstalk. power-supply decoupling capacitors should be placed as close as possible to the v cc pins. max3981 3.125gbps xaui quad cable equalizer _______________________________________________________________________________________ 7 v cc 1.2k ? 50 ? 50 ? 200 a in+ in- esd structures figure 2. cml input buffer 50 ? 50 ? v cc q1 q2 out+ out- data esd structures figure 3. cml output buffer out2+ out2- gnd out3+ gnd out4+ out4- v cc out3- v cc v cc in1- gnd v cc in2+ in2- gnd v cc in3+ in3- in1+ v cc 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 44 43 42 41 40 39 38 37 36 35 34 33 32 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 23 gnd n.c. n.c. n.c. n.c. n.c. in4- in4+ v cc gnd en n.c. n.c. n.c. n.c. gnd out1+ out1- v cc gnd sdet max3981 n.c. top view qfn* pin configuration * note : exposed pad must be soldered to supply ground.
