MAX3968 - (MAX3964 - MAX3968) 125Mbps to 266Mbps Limiting Amplifiers

This page provides the datasheet information for the MAX3968, a member of the MAX3964 (MAX3964 - MAX3968) 125Mbps to 266Mbps Limiting Amplifiers family.

Description

The MAX3964 limiting amplifier, with 2mV P-P input sensitivity and PECL data outputs, is ideal for low-cost ATM, FDDI, and Fast Ethernet fiber optic applications.

Features

  • an integrated power detector that senses the input-signal power. It provides a received-signal-strength indicator (RSSI), which is an analog indication of the power level and complementary PECL loss-ofsignal (LOS) outputs, which indicate when the power level drops below a programmable threshold. The threshold can be adjusted to detect signal amplitudes as low as 2.7mVp-p. An optional squelch function disables switching of the data outputs by holding them at a known state during an LOS condition.
