detailed description

The SLK2511 is designed to support OC-48/24/12. The operating data speed can be configured through the

RSEL0 and RSEL1 pins as indicated in Table 1.

The user can also enable the autorate detection circuitry through the AUTO_DETECT pin. The device

automatically detects the OC-N of the data line rate and generates two bits of output to indicate the data rate

to other devices in the system. When using AUTO_DETECT, RSEL0 and RSEL1 need to be set to 00 or be

unconnected.

The SLK2511 has four operational modes controlled by two configuration pins. These operational modes are

listed in Table 3. When the device is put in a certain mode, unused circuit blocks are powered down to conserve

the system power.

While the transceiver mode, transmit only mode, and receive only mode are straightforward, the repeater mode

of operation is shown in Figure 5. The receive serial data is recovered by the extracted clock and it is then sent

back out on the transmit serial outputs. The data eye is open both vertically and horizontally in this process. In

the repeater mode, the user can select to turn on the RX demux function through the RX_MONITOR pin and

allow the parallel data to be presented. This feature enables the repeater device not only to repeat but also to

listen in.

high-speed electrical interface

The high-speed serial I/O uses a PECL compatible interface. The line could be directly coupled or ac-coupled.

See Figure 10 and Figure 11 for configuration details. As shown in the figures, an on-chip 100-

Ω termination

resistor is placed differentially at the receive end.

The PECL output also provide de-emphasis for compensating ac loss when driving a cable or PCB backplane

over long distance. The level of the de-emphasis is programmable via PRE1 and PRE2 pins. Users can use

software to control the strength of the de-emphasis to optimize the device for a specific system requirement.
