Static control input
TTL levels
Normally wired HIGH
or LOW
Parallel Data Character Size Select.
Selects the input data character width. When BYTE8/10* is HIGH, the device
is in 8-bit mode. When BYTE8/10* is LOW, the part is in 10-bit mode. If the
encoder is enabled (ENCBYP* is HIGH), the data is encoded using the 8B/10B
code rules found in
Table 10
and
Table 11
.
When ENCBYP* is LOW, the part passes the 10 input bits (when BYTE8/10*
is HIGH) or 12 input bits (BYTE8/10* is LOW) directly to the serial stream
without encoding or decoding.
For affected pin groupings and function see
Table 1
and
Table 7
.
Global Logic Reset.
These inputs are pulsed LOW for one or more REFCLK periods to reset the
internal logic. They must be tied together or driven concurrently to ensure a
valid reset.
Factory Test Mode Select.
Used to force the part into a diagnostic test mode used for factory ATE test.
This pin is tied HIGH during normal operation.

Differential Serial Data Outputs.
These PECL compatible outputs are capable of driving terminated transmis-
sion lines or commercial fiber-optic transmitter modules.
An unused output pair may be powered down by leaving the outputs uncon-
nected and strapping the associated CURSETx pin to V
DD
.
Current-set Resistor Input for OUTA
±.
A precision resistor is connected between this input and a clean ground to set
the output differential amplitude and currents for the OUTA
±
differential driver.
Current-set Resistor Input for OUTB
±.
A precision resistor is connected between this input and a clean ground to set
the output differential amplitude and currents for the OUTB
±
differential driver.
Differential Serial Data Inputs.
These inputs accept the serial data stream for deserialization and decoding.
Only one serial stream at a time may be fed to the receiver PLL to extract the
data content. This stream is selected using the A/B* input. These inputs may
also be routed to the OUTB
±
serial outputs using the DLB[1:0] inputs.
Receive Data Input Selector.
Determines which internal or external serial bit-stream is passed to the receiv-
er clock and data recovery circuit. See
Table 3
for details.
Loop-back Select Inputs.
Selects connections between serial inputs and outputs. Controls diagnostic
loop-back and serial loop-through functions. See
Table 3
for details.
Carrier Detect Input.
Used to allow an external device to signify a valid signal is being presented to
the high speed PECL compatible input buffers, as is typical on an Optical
Module. When CARDET is deasserted LOW, the LFI
*
indicator asserts LOW
signifying a Link Fault. This input can be tied to V
DD
for copper media applica-
tions.
