VSC7224EV

VSC7224 and VSC7224-01 4-Channel Multirate Adaptive Channel Extender Microsemi’s EQNOX™ family of advanced unidirectional adaptive channel extenders equalize deteriorated input signals while dissipating the lowest possible power. The VSC7224 devices are 4-channel unidirectional adaptive channel extenders with CDR. They incorporate analog and digital equalization, clock and data recovery, and output de-emphasis. VSC7224 supports data rates up to 12.5 Gbps. VSC7224-01 supports data rates up to 11.5 Gbps. The VSC7224 devices are simple-to-use copper media receivers and drivers that provide electrical compensation to cable, copper, and backplane environments to increase system margin and media driving distances. They equalize greater than 40 inches of FR-4 at 10 Gbps and greater than 10 m of 24AWG of copper direct-attached cable at 10 Gbps. The VSC7224 devices can be used either on their own or with an external microcontroller to control, monitor, and enhance system performance. Highlights • World-class adaptive equalization • Up to 12.5 Gbps operation • 18 dB programmable output de-emphasis • Retimer and redriver modes • Built-in VScope™ • On-chip frequency synthesizers Applications • Wideband signal switching, clean-up, and retimer • Line, backplane, and copper cable driver, receiver, and retimer • PCB signal enhancement • Optical module retimer and receiver The VSC7224 devices feature Microsemi’s proprietary FlexEQ™ technology to equalize deteriorated input signals while dissipating the lowest possible power. A low-cost 25 MHz crystal, along with on-chip frequency synthesizers, allows for CDR operation at any data rate. Its three-tap FIR output driver architecture enables up to 18 dB of deemphasis. The VSC7224 devices include Microsemi’s patented VScope input signal monitoring integrated circuit signal monitoring and waveform viewing technology.
