FEATURES
o Stand-Alone Deserializer (vs. SERDES) Ideal for Unidirectional Links o Automatic Clock Recovery o Allow Hot Insertion and Synchronization Without System Interruption o BLVDS Serial Input Rated for Point-to-Point and Bus APPLICATIONS
o Fast Pseudorandom Lock o Wide Reference Clock Input Range 16MHz to 40MHz (MAX9206) 40MHz to 60MHz (MAX9208) o High 720ps (p-p) Jitter Tolerance (MAX9206) o Low 30mA Supply Current (MAX9206 at 16MHz) o 10-Bit Parallel LVCMOS/LVTTL Output o Up to 600Mbps Throughput (MAX9208) o Programmable Output Strobe Edge o Pin Compatible to DS92LV1212A and DS92LV1224 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MAX9206/MAX9208 receive serial data at 400Mbps and 600Mbps, respectively, over board traces or twisted-pair cables. These devices combine frequency lock, bit lock, and frame lock to produce a parallel-rate clock and word-aligned 10-bit data. Serialization eliminates parallel bus clock-to-data and data-to-data skew. A power-down mode reduces typical supply current to less than 600µA.
