The Si5013 combines a high sensitivity limiting amplifier and multi-rate clock
and data recovery (CDR) unit into a single IC.
The Si5013 extracts timing information and data from a serial input at OC-12/3
or STM-4/1 rates. To simplify device application and reduce board space
requirements, the Si5013 eliminates the need for an external reference clock
by integrating this function into the device. Enhanced analog and digital
signal monitoring is also provided with user programmable alarms to simplify
detection of analog loss-of-signal (LOS) and digital bit error rate (BER). To
accommodate BER optimization for long haul data links, user-programmable data
slicing is available to reduce circuit complexity.
The Si5013 utilizes Silicon Laboratories' proprietary DSPLL® technology to
provide superior jitter performance that remains constant across the entire
industrial temperature range. DSPLL eliminates the external loop filter
components necessary in traditional CDR implementations thereby improving
jitter performance by reducing the device's sensitivity to board-level noise.
Removing these external components also eliminates concerns related to
component aging and supply voltage variations. In addition, the Si5013
significantly exceeds all SONET/SDH jitter requirements, providing additional
design margin with respect to jitter generation, tolerance and transfer.
The Si5013 consumes 560 mW (typ OC-12) from a single 3.3 V supply and comes
packaged in a small 5 x 5 mm, 28-pin Micro-Leaded Package (MLP). The device
operates over the industrial temperature range (–20 °C to 85 °C.)
