10-GbE XAUI™ TRANSCEIVER WITH HIGH-SPEED REDUNDANCY
FEATURES
SUMMARY OF BENEFITS
•
10-GbE transceiver supporting various operating modes
•
•
•
•
IEEE 802.3™ae-compliant XAUI™ to XGMII transceiver
•
XAUI-to-XAUI retiming
Low power dissipation
•
Less than 300 mW per transceiver channel including I/O
SONET/SDH-quality jitter performance
•
Less than three picoseconds rms jitter generation
•
Exceeds SONET jitter tolerance mask
High performance programmable receive equalization and
transmit pre-emphasis
•
Transmit pre-emphasis for interoperability with CML SerDes
•
Receive equalization for copper interconnects
Enhanced test capability
•
Full loopback and on-chip PRBS generator/checker
•
IEEE (1149.1) JTAG
Compact 21-mm × 21-mm BGA package
•
No requirement for heat sink or airflow
•
Advanced 0.13µ CMOS process technology provides
unparalleled performance while achieving the lowest possible
power consumption
•
IEEE 802.3ae 10-GbE physical coding sublayer (PCS) has a
selectable 8B/10B encoding/decoding block on-chip that can
be configured to support the 10-Gbps attachment unit
interface (XAUI)
•
Superior jitter characteristics enable the serializing/
deserializing (SerDes) of data signals transmitted through
front panel or backplane networking equipment supporting
both primary and protection circuits
•
•
•
Drive PMD devices or backplane directly with no external
clean-up circuit required
•
Simplifies manufacturability with integrated built-in self-test
(BIST), high-speed and low-speed loopbacks, and
programmable PRBS generator/checker
•
Decreases complexity and reduces board space on
multichannel linecard designs
APPLICATIONS
APPLICATIONS
•
1-GbE and 10-GbE LAN, MAN, WAN switches and routers
•
