ISL35411

Quad Driver ISL35411 The ISL35411 is a quad de-emphasis driver with extended functionality for advanced protocols operating with line rates up to 11.1 Gbps such as InfiniBand (QDR) and 40G Ethernet (40GBASE-CR4/SR4). The ISL35411 is a high-speed driver/limiting amplifier with built in de-emphasis to drive twin-axial copper cables and compensate for the frequency dependent attenuation of PCB traces such as the SFI channel in the 10G SFP+ specification (SFF-8431). Used in conjunction with Intersil’s ISL36411 receive-side equalizer, ISL35411 enables active copper cable assemblies that support 10G serial data transmission over >15m of twin-axial copper cables. Operating on a single 1.2V power supply, the ISL35411 enables per channel throughputs of 10Gbps to 11.1Gbps. The ISL35411 uses current mode logic (CML) input/output and is packaged in a 4mmx7mm 46 lead QFN.

A functional diagram of ISL35411 is shown in Figure 4. In addition to a de-emphasis circuit to compensate for channel loss and improve signal fidelity, the ISL35411 contains unique integrated features to preserve special signaling protocols typically broken by other drivers. The signal detect function is used to mute the channel output when the equalized signal falls below 6 the level determined by the Detection Threshold (DT) pin voltage. This function is intended to preserve periods of line silence As illustrated in Figure 4, the core of the high-speed signal path in the ISL35411 is a sophisticated driver followed by a de-emphasis circuit. The device applies pre-distortion to compensate for skin effect loss, dielectric loss, and impedance discontinuities in the transmission channel.

FUNCTIONAL DIAGRAM OF A SINGLE CHANNEL WITHIN THE ISL35411 Adjustable De-emphasis ISL35411 features a settable de-emphasis driver for custom signal restoration. The voltages at the DE pins are used to determine the de-emphasis levels of each 2-channel group – from 0dB to 4dB in 0.5dB increments. For each two of the four channels the [A] and [B] control pins DE[k] are associated with a non binary word. [A] and [B] can take one of three different values: ‘LOW’, ‘MIDDLE’, or ‘HIGH’. This is achieved by leaving the DE pins floating or connecting them either to VDD or GND through 0Ω resistors. Table 1 defines the mapping from the 2-bit DE word to the 7 possible de-emphasis levels.

The resistor values should be validated on an application-specific basis. Connect the DT pin to ground in order to disable this feature and prevent the outputs from muting during line silence. PCB Layout Considerations Because of the high speed of the ISL35411 signals, careful PCB layout is critical to maximize performance. The following guidelines should be adhered to as closely as possible: • All high speed differential pair traces should have a characteristic impedance of 50Ω with respect to ground plane and 100Ω with respect to each other. • Avoid using vias for high speed traces as this will create discontinuity in the traces’ characteristic impedance. • Input and output traces need to have DC blocking capacitors (100nF). Capacitors should be placed as close to the chip as possible. • For each differential pair, the positive trace and the negative trace need to be of the same length in order to avoid intra-pair skew. A Serpentine technique may be used to match trace lengths. • Maintain a constant solid ground plane underneath the high-speed differential traces. • Each VDD pin should be connected to 1.2V and also bypassed to ground through a 10nF and a 100pF capacitor in parallel. Minimize the trace length and avoid vias between the VDD pin and the bypass capacitors in order to maximize the power supply noise rejection. • If 4 channels of the device are set to the same boost, then the quantity of CP resistors can be reduced by tying both CP pins together. Line Silence/Quiescent Mode The ISL35411 is capable of maintaining periods of line silence by monitoring its input pins for loss of signal (LOS) conditions and subsequently muting the output drivers when such a condition is detected. A reference voltage applied to the detection threshold DT[k] pins is used to set the LOS threshold of the internal signal detection circuitry. For most applications, it is recommended to leave the DT pin floating at its default internal bias.

To address this, Intersil has developed its groundbreaking Q:ACTIVE® product line. By integrating its analog ICs inside cabling interconnects, Intersil is able to achieve unsurpassed improvements in reach, power consumption, latency, and cable gauge size as well as increased airflow in tomorrow's datacenters. This new technology transforms passive cabling into intelligent "roadways" that yield lower operating expenses and capital expenditures for the expanding datacenter. Intersil Lane Extenders allow greater reach over existing cabling while reducing the need for thicker cables. This significantly reduces cable weight and clutter, increases airflow, and improves power consumption. 9 FN6971.1 March 25, 2010 ISL35411 Revision History The revision history provided is for informational purposes only and is believed to be accurate, but not warranted.
