3 Description

The SN75LVCP600S is a single-channel SATA/SAS

signal conditioner supporting data rates up to 6 Gbps.

The device complies with SATA physical spec rev 3.0

and SAS electrical spec 2.0. The SN75LVCP600S

operates from a single 3.3-V supply and has 100-Ω

line termination with a self-biasing feature, making the

device suitable for AC coupling. The inputs

incorporate an out-of-band (OOB) detector, which

automatically squelches the output while maintaining

a stable common-mode voltage compliant to the

SATA/SAS link.

The SN75LVCP600S handles interconnect losses at

its input with selectable equalization settings that can

be programmed to the match loss in the channel. For

data rates of 3 Gbps and lower, the LVCP600S

equalizes signals for a span of up to 50 inches of

FR4 board material. For data rates of 6 Gbps, the

device compensates >40 inches (1 m) of FR4

material. Rx/Tx equalization level is controlled by the

setting of signal control pins EQ and DE.

The device is hot-plug capable (requires use of ACcoupling

capacitors at differential inputs and outputs),

preventing device damage during device hot-insertion

such as async signal plug/removal, unpowered

plug/removal, powered plug/removal, or surprise

plug/removal.
