DS125BR401
SNLS419D – JULY 2012 – REVISED MAY 2015
DS125BR401 Low-Power, 12.5-Gbps, 4-Lane Repeater With Input Equalization
and Output De-Emphasis
1 Features
3 Description
•
The DS125BR401 device is an extremely low-power
high-performance multiprotocol repeater and redriver
designed to support four lanes of PCIe Gen-3/2/1,
10G-KR, and other high-speed interface serial
protocols up to 12.5 Gbps. The continuous time linear
equalizer (CTLE) of the receiver provides a boost of
up to 30 dB at 6.25 GHz (12.5 Gbps) in each of its
eight channels and can open an input eye that is
completely closed due to intersymbol interference
(ISI) induced by interconnect medium such as
backplane traces of 30 inches or more or copper
cables of 8 meters or more, hence enabling host
controllers to ensure an error-free end-to-end link.
The transmitter provides a de-emphasis boost of up
to –12 dB and output voltage amplitude control from
700 mV to 1300 mV to allow maximum flexibility in
the physical placement within the interconnect
channel.

6 Description (continued)
When operating in 10G-KR, and PCIe Gen-3 mode, the DS125BR401 allows the host controller and the end
point to optimize the full link and negotiate transmit equalizer coefficients. This transparency to the link training
protocol can extend the maximum channel loss with minimum latency. With a low power consumption of 65
mW/channel (typical) and the option to turn off unused channels, the DS125BR401 enables energy efficient
system design. A single supply of 3.3 V or 2.5 V is required to power the device.
The programmable settings can be applied easily through pins, software (SMBus or I2C), or loaded through an
external EEPROM. When operating in the EEPROM mode, the configuration information is automatically loaded
on power up, which eliminates the need for an external microprocessor or software driver.

In PCIe Gen-3 mode, the output VOD level is not fixed. It will be adjusted automatically based on the VID input amplitude level. The
output VOD level set by DEMA/B[1:0] in this MODE is dependent on the VID level and the frequency content. The DS125BR401
repeater is designed to be nonlimiting in this MODE, so the TX-FIR (de-emphasis) is passed to the RX to support the handshake
negotiation link training.

9 Detailed Description
9.1 Overview
The DS125BR401 device compensates for lossy printed-circuit-board (PCB) backplanes and balanced cables.
The DS125BR401 compensates for lossy FR-4 PCB backplanes and balanced cables. The DS125BR401
operates in 3 modes: Pin Control Mode (ENSMB = 0), SMBus Slave Mode (ENSMB = 1) and SMBus Master
Mode (ENSMB = float) to load register informations from external EEPROM; refer to SMBUS Master Mode for
additional information.

9.3.1 Typical 4-Level Input Thresholds
• Level 1 - 2 = 0.2 × VIN or VDD
• Level 2 - 3 = 0.5 × VIN or VDD
• Level 3 - 4 = 0.8 × VIN or VDD
To minimize the start-up current associated with the integrated 2.5-V regulator, TI recommends using the 1-kΩ
pullup and pulldown resistors. If several 4-level inputs require the same setting, it is possible to combine two or
more 1-kΩ resistors into a single lower value resistor. As an example; combining two inputs with a single 500-Ω
resistor is a good way to save board space.

9.4 Device Functional Modes
9.4.1 Pin Control Mode
When in pin mode (ENSMB = 0), equalization and de-emphasis can be selected through pin for each side
independently. When de-emphasis is asserted VOD is automatically adjusted per Table 3. For PCIe applications,
the RXDET pins provides automatic and manual control for input termination (50 Ω or >50 kΩ). MODE setting is
also pin controllable with pin selections (PCIe Gen-1, PCIe Gen-2, auto detect, and PCIe Gen-3). The receiver
electrical idle detect threshold is also adjustable through the SD_TH pin.
9.4.2 SMBUS Mode
When in SMBus mode (ENSMB = 1), the VOD (output amplitude), equalization, de-emphasis, and termination
disable features are all programmable on a individual lane basis, instead of grouped by A or B as in the pin mode
case. Upon assertion of ENSMB, the EQx and DEMx functions revert to register control immediately. The EQx
and DEMx pins are converted to AD0-AD3 SMBus address inputs. The other external control pins (MODE,
RXDET and SD_TH) remain active unless their respective registers are written to and the appropriate override bit
is set, in which case they are ignored until ENSMB is driven low (pin mode). On power up and when ENSMB is
driven low all registers are reset to their default state. If PWDN is asserted while ENSMB is high, the registers
retain their current state.
Equalization settings accessible through the pin controls were chosen to meet the needs of most high speed
applications. If additional fine tuning or adjustment is needed, additional equalization settings can be accessed
through the SMBus registers. Each input has a total of 256 possible equalization settings. System Management
Bus (SMBus) and Configuration Registers show the 16 setting when the device is in pin mode. When using
SMBus mode, the equalization, VOD and de-emphasis levels are set by registers.
9.5 Programming
9.5.1 PCIe Signal Integrity
When using the DS125BR401 in PCIe Gen-3 systems, there are specific signal integrity settings to ensure signal
integrity margin. The settings were optimized by extensive testing. Contact your field representative for more
information regarding the testing completed to achieve these settings.
For tuning the in the downstream direction (from CPU to EP).
• EQ: use the guidelines outlined in Table 2.
• De-Emphasis: use the guidelines outlined in Table 3.
• VOD: use the guidelines outlined in Table 3.
For tuning in the upstream direction (from EP to CPU).
• EQ: use the guidelines outlined in Table 2.
• De-Emphasis:
– For trace lengths < 15 in set to –3.5 dB
– For trace lengths > 15 in set to –6 dB
• VOD: set to 900 mV
