DESCRIPTION

The GS9025A provides automatic cable equalization and high performance clock and data recovery for serial digital signals. The GS9025A receives either single-ended or differential serial digital data and outputs differential clock and retimed data signals at PECL levels (800mV). The on-board cable equalizer provides up to 40dB of gain at 200MHz which typically results in equalization of greater than 350m of high quality cable at 270Mb/s.

FEATURES

• SMPTE 259M compliant

• operational to 540Mb/s

• automatic cable equalization (typically greater than 350m of high quality cable at 270Mb/s)

• adjustment-free operation

• auto-rate selection (5 rates) with manual override

• single external VCO resistor for operation with five input data rates

• data rate indication output

• serial data outputs muted and serial clock remains active when input data is lost

• operation independent of SAV/EAV sync signals

• signal strength indicator output

• carrier detect with programmable threshold level

• power savings mode (output serial clock disable)

• Pb-free and Green

APPLICATIONS

Cable equalization plus clock and data recovery for all high speed serial digital interface applications involving SMPTE 259M and other data standards.
