JAJSK91C August 2018 – June 2021 DS250DF230
PRODUCTION DATA
For this design example, the following guidelines outlined in Table 9-1 apply.
DESIGN PARAMETER | REQUIREMENT |
---|---|
AC-coupling capacitors | Egress (ASIC-to-module) direction: AC-coupling capacitors in the range of 100 to 220 nF are required for the RX inputs and are NOT required for the TX outputs. Ingress (module-to-ASIC) direction: AC-coupling capacitors in the range of 100 to 220 nF are required for the TX outputs and are NOT required for the RX inputs. |
Input channel insertion loss | ≤ 35 dB at 25.78125-Gbps Nyquist frequency (12.9 GHz) |
Output channel insertion loss | Egress (ASIC-to-module) direction: Follow CAUI-4 / CEI-25G-VSR host channel requirements (approximately 7 dB at 12.9 GHz). Ingress (module-to-ASIC) direction: Depends 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. |
Host ASIC TX launch amplitude | 800 mVppd to 1200 mVppd. |
Host ASIC TX FIR filter | Depends on channel loss. Refer to the Setting the Output VOD, Pre-Cursor, and Post-Cursor Equalization section. |
