Description
The OctalPHYTM is an octal PHYsical layer transceiver ideal for systems requiring large numbers of point-to-point gigabit links.
It provides eight individual serial channels capable of operation at up to 1.25 Gbps, which may be grouped together to form a single 12.5 Gbps bidirectional link.
Features
- Eight independent 1.0-1.25 Gbit/s transceivers.
- Ultra low power operation: 1.25 Watts typical.
- Integrated serializer/deserializer, clock synthesis, clock recovery, and 8B/10B encode/decode logic.
- Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) logic for Gigabit Ethernet.
- Optional receive FIFO which synchronizes incoming data to local clock domain.
- Dual Data Rate (DDR) parallel interface with clock forwarding to halve ASIC terminal count and simplify timing.
