MAX3873A - Low-Power / Compact 2.5Gbps/2.7Gbps Clock-Recovery and Data-Retiming IC

General Description

The MAX3873A is a compact, low-power 2.488Gbps/ 2.67Gbps clock-recovery and data-retiming IC for SDH/SONET applications.

The phase-locked loop (PLL) recovers a synchronous clock signal from the serial NRZ data input.

Key Features

19-2577; Rev 1; 5/03 Low-Power, Compact 2.5Gbps/2.7Gbps Clock-Recovery and Data-Retiming IC General Description The MAX3873A is a compact, low-power 2.488Gbps/ 2.67Gbps clock-recovery and data-retiming IC for SDH/SONET applications. The phase-locked loop (PLL) recovers a synchronous clock signal from the serial NRZ data input. The input data is then retimed by this recovered clock, providing a clean data output. The MAX3873A meets all SDH/SONET jitter specifications, does not require an external reference clock to aid in frequency acquisition, and provides excellent tolerance to both deterministic and sinusoidal jitter. The MAX3873A provides a PLL loss-of-lock (LOL) output to indicate whether the CDR is in lock.
