SNLU268 November 2023 DS160PR810
The DS160PR810 requires manual CTLE tuning. The CTLE gain level can be changed by modifying the value of each CTLE stage (EQ1 and EQ2) or by bypassing the EQ1 stage. The CTLE level can be set individually for each channel or broadcast to all channels. Table 3-1 shows an example sequence for setting the CTLE gain level to 5.0 dB at 8 GHz (CTLE Index 2) on the Bank 0 channels and to 7.0 dB (CTLE Index 4) on the Bank 1 channels using individual writes to each channel. Use register values provided in Table 3-3 to set the CTLE gain level to any other available value.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Bank 0: Channel 0 | Write | 0x01 | 0x08 | 0x3F | Set CTLE to Index 2 on Channel 0. |
2 | Bank 0: Channel 1 | Write | 0x21 | 0x08 | 0x3F | Set CTLE to Index 2 on Channel 1. |
3 | Bank 0: Channel 2 | Write | 0x41 | 0x08 | 0x3F | Set CTLE to Index 2 on Channel 2. |
4 | Bank 0: Channel 3 | Write | 0x61 | 0x08 | 0x3F | Set CTLE to Index 2 on Channel 3. |
5 | Bank 1: Channel 4 | Write | 0x01 | 0x11 | 0x3F | Set CTLE to Index 4 on Channel 4. |
6 | Bank 1: Channel 5 | Write | 0x21 | 0x11 | 0x3F | Set CTLE to Index 4 on Channel 5. |
7 | Bank 1: Channel 6 | Write | 0x41 | 0x11 | 0x3F | Set CTLE to Index 4 on Channel 6. |
8 | Bank 1: Channel 7 | Write | 0x61 | 0x11 | 0x3F | Set CTLE to Index 4 on Channel 7. |
Assuming 0x18 and 0x19 are the SMBus addresses for the Channel Banks 0 and 1 respectively, the following is the XML batch script of the sequence in Table 3-1:
<i2c_write addr="0x18" count="0" radix"16">01 08</i2c_write>
<i2c_write addr="0x18" count="0" radix"16">21 08</i2c_write>
<i2c_write addr="0x18" count="0" radix"16">41 08</i2c_write>
<i2c_write addr="0x18" count="0" radix"16">61 08</i2c_write>
<i2c_write addr="0x19" count="0" radix"16">01 11</i2c_write>
<i2c_write addr="0x19" count="0" radix"16">21 11</i2c_write>
<i2c_write addr="0x19" count="0" radix"16">41 11</i2c_write>
<i2c_write addr="0x19" count="0" radix"16">61 11</i2c_write>
Table 3-2 shows an example sequence to set the CTLE gain level to 5.0 dB at 8 GHz (CTLE Index 2) on Bank 0 channels and to 7.0 dB (CTLE Index 4) on Bank 1 channels using a broadcast write to each channel bank.

Table 3-3 gives a CTLE Control Register value as a function of CTLE Index (0 - 15). Example CTLE Control Register addresses are given in Table 3-1 and Table 3-2.
