The Silicon Creations wide-range 250Mbps to 12.7Gbps 4-lane Deserializer and Serializer macro includes all high-speed analog functions for four lanes of high-speed data transport between chips over backplanes and cables. Trimmable on-die termination, linear equalization (CTLE) and Decision Feedback Equalizer are included to compensate for channel loss enabling longer cables. An Eye Monitor is included to verify the eye opening at the data slicer. They are optimized for low power operation.
250Mbps to 12.7Gbps Multiprotocol SerDes PMA
Overview
Key Features
- Very wide CDR range -- operates with data rates from 0.25Gbps to 12.7Gbps
- Extremely low jitter suitable for Enterprise SerDes applications
