Mixed-Signal ICs - Si5110 OC-48 Transceiver

SummaryFeaturesDocumentationProducts Matrix

The Si5110 is a complete low-power transceiver for high-speed serial communication systems operating between 2.5 Gbps and 2.7 Gbps, making it suitable for OC-48/STM-16 and OC-48/STM-16 applications that use 15/14 forward error correction coding (FEC).

The receive path consists of a fully integrated limiting amplifier, clock and data recovery unit (CDR) and a 1:4 deserializer. The transmit path combines an eight word FIFO with flow control, low jitter clock multiplier unit (CMU) and a 4:1 serializer. The CMU uses Silicon Laboratories' DSPLL® technology to provide superior jitter performance while reducing design complexity by eliminating external loop filter components. In addition, DSPLL supports programmable loop filter bandwidths, eliminating the need for expensive external VCXO's and clean-up PLL’s for jitter attenuation. To simplify BER optimization in long haul applications, programmable slicing and sample phase adjustment are supported.

The Si5110 provides a 4-bit, 622 MHz LVDS interface and is packaged in a 99-pin 11mm x 11mm ceramic ball grid array. The device operates from a single 1.8V supply.
