SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Receive Path Configurations
In the receive signal path (see Figure 1), the internal
equalizer can be included by setting REQB = 0 or
bypassed by setting REQB = 1. The equalizer bypass
option allows easy interfacing of the XR-T7295 device
into systems already containing external equalizers.
Figure 3illustrates the receive path options.
In Case 1 of Figure 3 the signal from the DSX-3
cross-connect feeds directly into R
IN
. In this mode, the
user should set REQB = 0, engaging the equalizer in the
data path. Table 1and the following sections describe the
receive signal requirements.
In Case 2 of Figure 3 external line build-out (LBO) and
equalizer networks precede the XR-T7295 device. In this
mode, the signal at R
IN
is already equalized, and the
on-chip filters should be bypassed by setting REQB=1.
The signal at R
IN
must meet the amplitude limits
described in Table 1
In applications where the XR-T7295 device is used to
monitor DS3 transmitter outputs directly, the receive
equalizer should be bypassed. Again, the signal at R
IN
must meet the amplitude limits described in Table 1.
Minimum signals are for SOJ devices. Due to increased
package parasitics, add 3dB to all table values for DIP
devices.
Maximum input amplitude under all conditions is 850mV
pk.
Although system designers typically use power in dBm to
describe input levels, the XR-T7295 responds to peak
input signal amplitude. Therefore, the XR-T7295 input
signal limits are given in mV pk. Conversion factors are as
follows:
At DSX3: 390mV pk
At DSX3 + 450 ft. of cable: 310 mV pk
