5 mm × 5 mm 32-lead LFCSP
The ADN2817/ADN2818 provide the receiver functions of
quantization, signal level detect, and clock and data recovery for
continuous data rates from 10 Mbps to 2.7 Gbps. The ADN2817/
ADN2818 automatically lock to all data rates without the need for
an external reference clock or programming. All SONET jitter
requirements are exceeded, including jitter transfer, jitter generation,
and jitter tolerance. All specifications are quoted for −40°C to
+85°C ambient temperature, unless otherwise noted.
This device, together with a PIN diode and a TIA preamplifier,
can implement a highly integrated, low cost, and low power
fiber optic receiver.
The ADN2817/ADN2818 have many optional features available
through an I2C interface. For example, the user can read back
the data rate onto which the ADN2817 or ADN2818 is locked,
or the user can set the device to lock only to one particular data
rate if provisioning of data rates is required. A bit error rate
monitor (BERMON) circuit provides an estimate of the received
bit error rate (BER) without interruption of the data.
Alternatively, the user can adjust the data sampling phase to
optimize the received BER.
APPLICATIONS
SONET OC-1, OC-3, OC-12, OC-48, and all associated FEC rates
Fibre Channel, 2× Fibre Channel, GbE, HDTV
WDM transponders
Regenerators/repeaters
Test equipment
The ADN2817/ADN2818 are available in a compact 5 mm ×
5 mm, 32-lead, lead frame chip scale package.

PIN and NIN should be differentially driven and ac-coupled for optimum sensitivity.
When ac-coupled, the LOS assert and deassert time is dominated by the RC time constant of the ac coupling capacitor and the 50 Ω input termination of the ADN2817
input stage.

Sensitivity and overdrive specifications for the quantizer involve
offset voltage, gain, and noise. The relationship between the logic
output of the quantizer and the analog voltage input is shown in
Figure 23. For sufficiently large positive input voltages, the output
is always Logic 1 and, similarly for negative inputs, the output is
always Logic 0. However, the transitions between Output Logic
Level 1 and Output Logic Level 0 are not at precisely defined
input voltage levels but occur over a range of input voltages. Within
this range of input voltages, the output may be either 1 or 0, or
it may even fail to attain a valid logic state. The width of this
zone is determined by the input voltage noise of the quantizer.
The center of the zone is the quantizer input offset voltage. Input
overdrive is the magnitude of signal required to guarantee the
correct logic level with 1 × 10−10 confidence level.

Figure 24. Single-Ended Sensitivity Measurement
Differentially driving the ADN2817 (see Figure 25), sensitivity
seems to improve from observing the quantizer input with an
oscilloscope probe. This is an illusion caused by the use of a singleended probe. A 5 mV p-p signal appears to drive the ADN2817
quantizer. However, the single-ended probe measures only half
the signal. The true quantizer input signal is twice this value
because the other quantizer input is a complementary signal to
the signal being observed.

SINGLE-ENDED vs. DIFFERENTIAL
AC coupling is typically used to drive the inputs to the quantizer.
The inputs are internally dc biased to a common-mode potential of
approximately 2.5 V. Driving the ADN2817/ADN2818 singleended and observing the quantizer input with an oscilloscope
probe at the point indicated in Figure 24 shows a binary signal
with an average value equal to the common-mode potential and
instantaneous values both above and below the average value. It
is convenient to measure the peak-to-peak amplitude of this
signal and call the minimum required value the quantizer
sensitivity. Referring to Figure 24, because both positive and
negative offsets need to be accommodated, the sensitivity is
twice the overdrive. The ADN2817 quantizer typically has
5 mV p-p sensitivity. The ADN2818 does not have a limiting
amplifier at its input. The input sensitivity for the ADN2818 is
200 mV p-p.

LOS RESPONSE TIME
The LOS response time is the delay between the removal of the
input signal and the indication of the loss of signal at the LOS
output, Pin 22. When the inputs are dc-coupled, the LOS assert
time of the ADN2817 is 450 ns typically and the deassert time is
500 ns typically. In practice, the time constant produced by the
ac coupling at the quantizer input and the 50 Ω on-chip input
termination determine the LOS response time.

JITTER SPECIFICATIONS
JITTER GENERATION
The jitter generation specification limits the amount of jitter
that can be generated by the device with no jitter and wander
applied at the input. For OC-48 devices, the band-pass filter
has a 12 kHz high-pass cutoff frequency with a roll-off of
20 dB/decade and a low-pass cutoff frequency of at least
20 MHz. The jitter generated must be less than 0.01 UI rms
and must be less than 0.1 UI p-p.
JITTER TRANSFER
The jitter transfer function is the ratio of the jitter on the output
signal to the jitter applied on the input signal vs. the frequency.
This parameter measures the limited amount of the jitter on an
input signal that can be transferred to the output signal (see
Figure 26).

The jitter tolerance is defined as the peak-to-peak amplitude of
the sinusoidal jitter applied on the input signal, which causes a

no additional penalty is incurred under the operating conditions
(see Figure 27).

The following sections briefly summarize the specifications of
jitter generation, transfer, and tolerance in accordance with the
Telcordia document (GR-253-CORE, Issue 3, September 2000)
for the optical interface at the equipment level and the
ADN2817/ADN2818 performance with respect to those
specifications.
JITTER GAIN (dB)
Jitter is the dynamic displacement of digital signal edges from
their long-term average positions, measured in unit intervals
(UI), where 1 UI = 1 bit period. Jitter on the input data can cause
dynamic phase errors on the recovered clock sampling edge. Jitter
on the recovered clock causes jitter on the retimed data.

SONET/SDH equipment defined in the Telcordia® Technologies
specification.

THEORY OF OPERATION
Another view of the circuit is that the phase shifter implements
the zero required for frequency compensation of a second-order
phase-locked loop, and this zero is placed in the feedback path
and, thus, does not appear in the closed-loop transfer function.
Jitter peaking in a conventional second-order phase-locked loop is
caused by the presence of this zero in the closed-loop transfer
function. Because this circuit has no zero in the closed-loop
transfer, jitter peaking is minimized.
The delay- and phase-locked loops together simultaneously
provide wideband jitter accommodation and narrow-band jitter
filtering. The linearized block diagram in Figure 28 shows that
the jitter transfer function, Z(s)/X(s), is second-order low-pass,
providing excellent filtering. Note that the jitter transfer has no
zero, unlike an ordinary second-order phase-locked loop. This
means that the main PLL loop has virtually zero jitter peaking
(see Figure 29). This makes this circuit ideal for signal
regenerator applications, where jitter peaking in a cascade of
regenerators can contribute to hazardous jitter accumulation.
The error transfer, e(s)/X(s), has the same high-pass form as an
ordinary phase-locked loop. This transfer function is free to be
optimized to give excellent wideband jitter accommodation,
because the jitter transfer function, Z(s)/X(s), provides the
narrow-band jitter filtering.

FREQUENCY (kHz)
06001-018
The delay- and phase-locked loops together track the phase of
the input data signal. For example, when the clock lags input
data, the phase detector drives the VCO to a higher frequency
and increases the delay through the phase shifter; both of these
actions serve to reduce the phase error between the clock and
data. The faster clock picks up phase, while, simultaneously, the
delayed data loses phase. Because the loop filter is an integrator,
the static phase error is driven to zero.
psh
JITTER GAIN (dB)
The ADN2817/ADN2818 are delay- and phase-locked loop
circuits for clock recovery and data retiming from an NRZ
encoded data stream. The phase of the input data signal is tracked
by two separate feedback loops that share a common control
voltage. A high speed delay-locked loop path uses a voltage
controlled phase shifter to track the high frequency components
of input jitter. A separate phase control loop, composed of the
VCO, tracks the low frequency components of input jitter. The
initial frequency of the VCO is set by a third loop, which
compares the VCO frequency with the input data frequency
and sets the coarse tuning voltage. The jitter tracking phaselocked loop controls the VCO by the fine-tuning control.
Figure 29. ADN2817/ADN2818 Jitter Response vs. Conventional PLL
The delay- and phase-locked loops contribute to overall jitter
accommodation. At low frequencies of input jitter on the data
signal, the integrator in the loop filter provides high gain to track
large jitter amplitudes with small phase error. In this case, the
VCO is frequency modulated and jitter is tracked as in an ordinary
phase-locked loop. The amount of low frequency jitter that can
be tracked is a function of the VCO tuning range. A wider tuning
range gives larger accommodation of low frequency jitter. The
internal loop control voltage remains small for small phase
errors, so the phase shifter remains close to the center of its
range and thus contributes little to the low frequency jitter
accommodation.
Rev. G | Page 20 of 38
Data Sheet
ADN2817/ADN2818
At medium jitter frequencies, the gain and tuning range of the
VCO are not large enough to track input jitter. In this case, the
VCO control voltage becomes large and saturates, and the VCO
frequency dwells at one extreme of its tuning range or the other.
The size of the VCO tuning range, therefore, has only a small
effect on the jitter accommodation. The delay-locked loop control
voltage is now larger, and so the phase shifter takes on the
burden of tracking the input jitter. The phase shifter range, in
UI, can be seen as a broad plateau on the jitter tolerance curve.
The phase shifter has a minimum range of 2 UI at all data rates.
The gain of the loop integrator is small for high jitter frequencies,
so that larger phase differences are needed to make the loop
control voltage big enough to tune the range of the phase shifter.
Large phase errors at high jitter frequencies cannot be tolerated.
In this region, the gain of the integrator determines the jitter
accommodation. Because the gain of the loop integrator declines
linearly with frequency, jitter accommodation is lower with higher
jitter frequency. At the highest frequencies, the loop gain is very
small, and little tuning of the phase shifter can be expected. In this
case, jitter accommodation is determined by the eye opening of the
input data, the static phase error, and the residual loop jitter
generation. The jitter accommodation is roughly 0.5 UI in this
region. The corner frequency between the declining slope and
the flat region is the closed-loop bandwidth of the delay-locked
loop, which is roughly 3 MHz at OC-48.

Transmission Lines
Soldering Guidelines for Lead Frame Chip Scale Package
Use of 50 Ω transmission lines is required for all high frequency
input and output signals to minimize reflections: PIN, NIN,
CLKOUTP, CLKOUTN, DATAOUTP, and DATAOUTN (also
REFCLKP, REFCLKN, if using a high frequency reference clock,
such as 155 MHz). It is also necessary for the PIN/NIN input
traces to be matched in length, and the CLKOUTP, CLKOUTN,
DATAOUTP, and DATAOUTN output traces to be matched
in length to avoid skew between the differential traces.
The lands on the 32-lead LFCSP are rectangular. The printed
circuit board pad for these should be 0.1 mm longer than the
package land length, and 0.05 mm wider than the package land
width. Center the land on the pad to ensure that the solder joint
size is maximized. The bottom of the lead frame chip scale package
has a central exposed pad. The pad on the printed circuit board
should be at least as large as this exposed pad. The user must
connect the exposed pad to VEE using plugged vias to prevent
solder from leaking through the vias during reflow. This ensures a
solid connection from the exposed pad to VEE.
All high speed CML outputs (CLKOUTP, CLKOUTN,
DATAOUTP, and DATAOUTN) require 100 Ω back
termination chip resistors connected between the output pin
and VCC. Place these resistors as close as possible to the output
pins. These 100 Ω resistors are in parallel with on-chip 100 Ω
termination resistors to create a 50 Ω back termination (see
Figure 37).
The high speed inputs (PIN and NIN) are internally terminated
with 50 Ω to an internal reference voltage (see Figure 38). A 0.1 µF
capacitor is recommended between VREF, Pin 3, and GND to
provide an ac ground for the inputs.
As with any high speed mixed-signal design, take care to keep
all high speed digital traces away from sensitive analog nodes.

AC coupling capacitors at the input (PIN, NIN) and output
(DATAOUTP, DATAOUTN) of the ADN2817/ADN2818 must
be chosen such that the device works properly over the full
range of data rates used in the application. When choosing the
capacitors, the time constant formed with the two 50 Ω resistors
in the signal path must be considered. When a large number of
consecutive identical digits (CIDs) are applied, the capacitor
voltage can droop due to baseline wander (see Figure 39), causing
pattern dependent jitter (PDJ).
The user must determine how much droop is tolerable and choose
an ac coupling capacitor based on that amount of droop. The
amount of PDJ can then be approximated based on the capacitor
selection. The actual capacitor value selection may require some
trade-offs between droop and PDJ.

When the capacitor value is selected, approximate PDJ as
PDJps p-p = 0.5tr(1 − e(−nT/RC))/0.6
where:
PDJps p-p is the amount of pattern-dependent jitter allowed;
