SK10E445 Datasheet 4-Bit Serial/Parallel Converter

Manufacturer: SEMTECH

Overview: 4-Bit Serial/Parallel Converter HIGH-PER.ORMANCE PRODUCTS.

General Description

The SK10/100E445 is an integrated 4-bit serial-toparallel data converter.

The device is designed to operate for NRZ data rates of up to 2.0 Gb/s.

The chip generates a divide by 4 and a divide by 8 clock for both 4-bit conversion and a two chip 8-bit conversion function.

Key Features

  • multiplexed dual serial inputs to provide test loop capability when used in conjunction with the E446. Figure 1 illustrates the loop test architecture. The architecture allows for the electrical testing of the link without requiring actual transmission over the serial data path medium. The SINA serial input of the E446 has an extra buffer delay and should be used as the loopback serial input. SOUT SOUT.
  • TO SERIAL MEDIUM The clock frequency is significantly lower than that of a single conver.
