GS9025A

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.

The GS9025A operates in either auto or manual data rate selection mode. In both modes, the GS9025A requires only one external resistor to set the VCO centre frequency and provides adjustment free operation.

The GS9025A has dedicated pins to indicate signal strength/carrier detect, LOCK and data rate. Optional external resistors allow the carrier detect threshold level to be customized to the user's requirement. In addition, the GS9025A provides an 'Output Eye Monitor Test' (OEM_TEST) for diagnostic testing of signal integrity after equalization, prior to reslicing. The serial clock outputs can also be disabled to reduce power. The GS9025A operates from a single +5 or -5 volt supply.
