9.2.3.1 Design Requirements

For this design example, the following guidelines outlined in Table 9-4 apply.

Table 9-4 Backplane/Mid-Plane Application Design Guidelines
DESIGN PARAMETERREQUIREMENT
AC coupling capacitorsAC-coupling capacitors in the range of 100 to 220 nF are required for the RX inputs and TX outputs.
Input channel insertion loss≤ 35 dB at 25.78125-Gbps Nyquist frequency (12.9 GHz)
Output channel insertion lossDepends on downstream ASIC / FPGA capabilities. The DS250DF230 has a low-jitter output driver with 3-tap FIR filter for equalizing a portion of the output channel.
Link partner TX launch amplitude800 mVppd to 1200 mVppd
Link partner TX FIR filterDepends on channel loss. Refer to the Setting the Output VOD, Pre-Cursor, and Post-Cursor Equalization section.
