The serializer and deserializer support only AC-coupled interconnects through an integrated DC-balanced decoding scheme. External AC-coupling capacitors must be placed in series in the FPD-Link III signal path as illustrated in Figure 45.
For high-speed FPD-Link III transmissions, the smallest available package should be used for the AC-coupling capacitor. This will help minimize degradation of signal quality due to package parasitics. The I/Os require a
100-nF AC-coupling capacitors to the line.
The DS90UB91xQ-Q1 chipset is intended to be used in a point-to-point configuration through a shielded twisted pair cable. The serializer and deserializer provide internal termination to minimize impedance discontinuities. The interconnect (cable and connectors) should have a differential impedance of 100 Ω. The maximum length of cable that can be used is dependent on the quality of the cable (gauge, impedance), connector, board (discontinuities, power plane), the electrical environment (for example, power stability, ground noise, input clock jitter, PCLK frequency, and so forth). The resulting signal quality at the receiving end of the transmission media may be assessed by monitoring the differential eye opening of the serial data stream. A differential probe should be used to measure across the termination resistor at the CMLOUTP/N pins. Figure 20 illustrates the minimum eye width and eye height that is necessary for bit error free operation.
The adaptive equalizer is designed to compensate for signal degradation due to the differential insertion loss of the interconnect components. There are limits to the amount of loss that can be compensated – these limits are defined by the gain curve of the equalizer. In addition, there is an inherent tolerance for loss defined by the delta between the minimum VDO of the serializer and the input threshold (Vswing) of the deserializer. In order to determine the maximum cable reach, other factors that affect signal integrity such as jitter, skew, ISI, crosstalk, and so forth, need to be taken into consideration. Figure 49 illustrates the maximum allowable interconnect loss with the adaptive equalizer at its maximum gain setting (914 equalizer gain).
