Quad SerDes Features Integrated Clock Jitter Cleaner

(Product News, 1 Sep 2008)

Texas Instruments Inc.'s (TI) four-channel serializer/deserializer (SerDes) integrated circuit, the TLK3134, enables high-speed, bi-directional, point-to-point data transmission with up to 30Gbps. The device has the flexibility to be configured either as a XAUI or 10 GFC transceiver, and supports a wide data bandwidth range from 600Mbps to 3.75Gbps per serial lane to address design challenges in a variety of applications such as gigabit Ethernet links or backplane and front plane connections.

The TLK3134 performs the parallel-to-serial, serial-to-parallel conversion and clock extraction functions for a physical layer interface, all in one compact device. The integrated reference clock jitter cleaner significantly eases the design process and allows the use of an economical reference clock source. The device meets the CPRI and OBSAI specifications for wireless infrastructure equipment. The backplane reach and transmission distance over cable can be extended by this SerDes' serial side transmit de-emphasis and adaptive receiver equalization.
