SNLS643C March 2019 – April 2024 DS90UB953A-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
The link between the DS90UB953A-Q1 and the companion deserializer has two distinct data paths. The first path is a forward channel which is nominally running at up to 4.16Gbps and is encoded such that the channel occupies a bandwidth from 20MHz to 2.1 GHz. The second path is a back channel from the deserializer to the serializer which occupies a frequency range nominally from 10MHz to 50MHz.
For these two communications links to operate properly, the circuit between the serializer and the deserializer must present a characteristic impedance of 50Ω. Deviations from this 50Ω characteristic will lead to signal reflections either at the serializer or deserializer, which will result in bit errors.
