Four Fibre Channel and Gigabit Ethernet compliant transceivers provide up to 8.32Gb/s of duplex raw data transfer. Each channel can be operated at a maximum data transfer rate of 1088Mb/s (8 bits at 136MHz) or a minimum rate of 392Mb/s (8 bits at 49MHz). For the entire chip in duplex mode, the aggregate transfer rate is between 6.3Gb/s and 8.7Gb/s. The VSC7216-01 contains four 8B/10B encoders, serializers, de-serializers, 8B/10B decoders and elastic buffers which provide the user with a simple interface for transferring data serially and recovering it on the receive side. The device can also be configured to operate as four non-encoded 10-bit transceivers. Notation In this document, each of the four channels are identified as channel A, B, C or D. When discussing a signal on any specific channel, the signal will have the channel letter embedded in the name, e.g., TA(7:0). When referring to the common behavior of a signal which is used on each of the four channels, a lower case “n” is used in the signal name, e.g., Tn(7:0). Differential signals (e.g., PTXA+ and PTXA-) may be referred to as a single signal, i.e. PTXA, by dropping reference to the “+” and “-”. REFCLK refers either to the PECL/TTL input pair REFCLKP/REFCLKN, which can be differential PECL (using both REFCLKP and REFCLKN) or single-ended TTL (using REFCLKP and leaving REFCLKN open). Clock Synthesizer Depending on the state of the DUAL input, the VSC7216-01 clock synthesizer multiplies the reference frequency provided on the REFCLK input by 10 (DUAL is LOW) or 20 (DUAL is HIGH) to achieve a baud rate clock between 0.98GHz and 1.36GHz. The on-chip PLL uses a single external 0.1µF capacitor, connected between CAP0 and CAP1, to control the Loop Filter. This capacitor should be a multilayer ceramic dielectric, or better, with at least a 5V working voltage rating and a good temperature coefficient (NPO is preferred but X7R may be acceptable). These capacitors are used to minimize the impact of common-mode noise on the Clock Multiplier Unit, especially power supply noise. Higher value capacitors provide better robustness in systems. NPO is preferred because if an X7R capacitor is used, the power supply noise sensitivity will vary with temperature. For best noise immunity, the designer may use a three capacitor circuit with one differential capacitor between CAP0 and CAP1, C1, a capacitor from CAP0 to ground, C2, and a capacitor from CAP1 to ground, C3. Larger values are better but 0.1µF is adequate. However, if the designer cannot use a three capacitor circuit, a single differential capacitor, C1, is adequate. These components should be isolated from noisy traces.

If TTL, connect the TTL input to REFCLKP but leave REFCLKN open. If LVPECL, connect the inputs to REFCLKP and REFCLKN. Internal biasing resistors sets the proper DC level to VDD/2. Serial and parallel data rates for all channels may be halved by means of the RATE pin. When RATE is HIGH, the chip is in full-speed mode (default mode of operation) and when LOW, the half-speed mode is selected. Table 1 shows the interaction of the DUAL and RATE inputs.

The C/Dn input determines whether a normal data character or a special “Kcharacter” is transmitted, and the WSENn input initiates transmission of a 16-character “Word Sync Sequence” used to align the receive channels. These data and control inputs are clocked either on the rising edge of REFCLK, on the rising edge of TBCn, or within the data eye formed by TBCn. When not using REFCLK, each channel uses either its own TBCn input, or uses the TBCA input. The transmit interface mode is controlled by TMODE(2:0) as shown in Table 2.

No phase relationship is assumed. A small skew buffer is provided to tolerate phase drift between TBCn and REFCLK. This buffer is recentered by the RESETN input, and the total phase drift after recentering must be limited to ±180° (where 360° is one character time). Each channel has an error output, TBERRn, that is asserted HIGH to indicate that the phase drift between TBCn and REFCLK has accumulated to the point that the elastic limit of the skew buffer has been exceeded and a transmit data character has been either dropped or duplicated. This error can not occur when input timing is referenced to REFCLK. The TBERRn output timing is identical to the low-speed receiver outputs, as selected by RMODE(1:0) in Table 6. Figures 2 through 4 show the possible relationships between data and control inputs and the selected input timing source. Figure 2 shows how REFCLK is used as an input timing reference. This mode of operation is used in the VSC7211 and VSC7214. Figure 3 and Figure 4 show how TBCn is used as an input timing reference. When TBCn is used to define a data eye as shown in Figure 4, it functions as an additional data input that simply toggles every cycle. Note that the REFCLK and TBCn inputs are not used directly to clock the input data. Instead, an internal Phase-Lock Loop (PLL) generates edges aligned with the appropriate clock. The arrows on the rising edges of these signals define the reference edge for the internal phase detection logic. An internal clock is generated at one-tenth the serial transmit data rate that is locked to the selected input timing source. This is an especially important issue when DUAL is HIGH and input timing is referenced to REFCLK, since the falling edge is NOT used. The internal clock active edges are placed coincident with the REFCLK rising edges and halfway between the REFCLK rising edges in this mode. A similar situation exists when TBCn is used to define a data eye, only the rising edges of TBCn are used to define the external data timing. The internal clock active edges are placed at 90° and 270° points between consecutive TBCn rising edges (which are assumed to be 360° apart).

C/Dn inputs are also provided in each channel which, along with KCHAR, allow the transmission of special Fibre Channel Kxx.x characters (see Table 3). Note that KCHAR is a static input, and does NOT have the same input timing as Tn(7:0), C/Dn and WSENn. Normally C/Dn is LOW in order to transmit data. If C/Dn is HIGH and KCHAR is LOW, then a Fibre Channel defined IDLE Character (K28.5 = ‘0011111010’ or ‘1100000101’ depending on disparity) is transmitted and Tn(7:0) is ignored. If C/Dn is HIGH and KCHAR is HIGH, a Kxx.x character is transmitted as determined by the data pattern on Tn(7:0) (see Table 4). Data patterns other than those defined in Table 4 produce undefined 10B encodings.

The C/Dn input becomes Tn8, and WSENn becomes Tn9. The KCHAR input becomes ENCDET which is not used in the transmitter, but when HIGH, enables Comma detection in all four receivers. Refer to the Decoder Bypass Mode section for a description of this mode of operation in the receiver. The latency through the transmitter is reduced by one character time when ENDEC is LOW. This mode of operation is similar to a 10-bit interface commonly found in serializer/deserializers for the Fibre Channel ( VSC7125) and Gigabit Ethernet markets (VSC7135). Word Sync Generation The VSC7216-01 can perform channel alignment (also referred to as “word alignment” or “word sync”), meaning that the four receive data output streams are aligned such that the same 4-byte word presented to the four transmit channel inputs for serialization will be transferred on the receive channel parallel outputs. The Word Sync Sequence provides a unique synchronization point in the serial data stream that is used to align the receive channels. This sequence consists of 16 consecutive K28.5 IDLE characters with disparity reversals on the second and fourth characters. The Word Sync Sequence is sent either as “I+ I+ I- I- I+ I- I+ I- I+ I- I+ I- I+ I- I+ I-” or as “I- I- I+ I+ I- I+ I- I+ I- I+ I- I+ I- I+ I- I+”, depending on the transmitter ’s running disparity at the time the first IDLE character is serialized. Transmission of the Word Sync Sequence is initiated independently in each channel when the WSENn input is asserted HIGH for one character time (see Figure 5). When WSENn is HIGH, the C/Dn and Tn(7:0) inputs are ignored. The WSENn, C/Dn and Tn(7:0) inputs are also ignored for the subsequent 15 character times. In Figure 5, the Word Sync Sequence is initiated in cycle W1 and transmitted through cycle W16. Normal data transmission (or the transmission of another Word Sync Sequence) resumes in cycle D3. This figure is illustrated assuming that input timing is referenced to REFCLK (e.g., TMODE(2:0)=000) with the DUAL input LOW. As long as WSENn remains asserted, another Word Sync Sequence will be generated.

The least significant bit of the 10B data is transmitted first. Each channel has both primary and redundant serial output ports, PTXn and RTXn respectively, which consist of differential PECL output buffers operating at either 10 or 20 times the REFCLK rate. The primary and redundant transmitter outputs are separately controllable on each channel. The primary PECL outputs PTXn are enabled when the PTXENn input is HIGH, and the redundant PECL outputs RTXn are enabled when the RTXENn input is HIGH. When a PECL output is disabled, the associated output buffers do not consume power and the attached pins are un-driven. The PECL outputs do not require external resistors. Receiver Functional Description Serial Data Source Each receive channel has both primary and redundant serial input ports, PRXn and RRXn, respectively, which consist of differential PECL input buffers. Each channel also has a control input, RXP/Rn, used to select either the primary or redundant serial input as the data source for that channel. When RXP/RC is HIGH, the C channel serial data source is PRXC. When LBENn(1:0)=10, the channel’s transmitter is looped back and becomes the serial data source regardless of the state of RXP/Rn (see Table 5). Table 5: Serial Data Source Selection LBENn(1:0) ≠10 ≠10 =10 RXP/Rn 0 1 X Serial Data Source RRXn PRXn LBTXn Loopback fromTransmitters Signal Detection Each channel ’s primary and redundant PECL input buffers have an associated signal detect output, PSDETn and RSDETn. All eight outputs are available for continuous monitoring of both the selected and nonselected input. Each signal detect output is asserted HIGH when transitions are detected on the associated PECL input and the signal amplitude exceeds 200mV under nominal operating conditions. A LOW indicates that either no transitions are detected or the signal amplitude is below 100mV under nominal operating conditions. The signal detect outputs are considered undefined when the signal amplitude is in the 100mV to 200mV range. The signal detect circuitry behaves like a re-triggerable one-shot that is triggered by signal transitions, and whose time-out interval ranges from 40 to 80 bit times. The transition density is not checked to make sure that it G52352-0, Rev 3.2 05/05/01 © VITESSE SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION • 741 Calle Plano • Camarillo, CA 93012 Tel: (800) VITESSE • FAX: (805) 987-5896 • Email: prodinfo@vitesse.com Internet: www.vitesse.com Page 7 VITESSE SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION Multi-Gigabit Interconnect Chip Multi-Gigabit Interconnect Chip Preliminary Data Sheet VSC7216-01 VSC7216 corresponds to a valid Fibre Channel data stream. The PSDETn and RSDETn output timing is identical to the low-speed receiver outputs, as selected by RMODE(1:0). See Table 6. Receiver Equalization Incoming data on the PRX/RRX inputs typically contains a substantial amount of Inter Symbol Interference (ISI) or deterministic jitter which reduces the ability of the receiver to recover data without errors. An equalizer has been added to each of the receiver ’s input buffers in order to compensate for this deterministic jitter. This circuit has been designed to effectively reduce the ISI commonly found in copper cables or backplane traces due to low frequencies traveling faster than high frequencies as a result of the skin effect. The equalizer boosts high frequency edge response in order to reduce the adverse effects of ISI. Clock and Data Recovery At the receiver, each channel contains an independent Clock Recovery Unit (CRU) which accepts the selected serial input source, extracts the high-speed clock and retimes the data. Each CRU automatically locks on data and if the data is not present, will automatically lock to the REFCLK. This maintains a very wellbehaved recovered clock, RCLKn/RCLKNn which does not contain any slivers and will operate at a frequency of the REFCLK reference ±200 ppm. The use of an external Lock-to-Reference pin is not needed. The Clock Recovery Unit must perform bit synchronization which occurs when the CRU locks onto and properly samples the incoming serial data as described in the previous paragraph. When the CRU is not locked onto the serial data, the 10-bit data out of the decoder is invalid which results in numerous 8B/10B decoding errors or disparity errors. When the link is disturbed (e.g., the cable is disconnected or the serial data source is switched), the CRU will require a certain amount of time to lock onto data which is specified in the AC Timing Characteristics for “Data Acquisition Lock Time.” Deserializer and Character Alignment The retimed serial data stream is converted into 10-bit characters by the deserializer. A special 7-bit “Comma” pattern (‘0011111xxx’ or ‘1100000xxx’) is recognized by the receiver and allows it to identify the 10-bit character boundary. Note that this pattern is found in three special characters, K28.1, K28.5 and K28.7, however, K28.5 is chosen as the unique IDLE character. Only K28.1 and K28.5 should be used in normal operation. The K28.7 character should be reserved for test and characterization use. Character alignment occurs when the deserializer synchronizes the 10-bit character framing boundary to a “Comma ” p attern in the incoming serial data stream. If the receiver identifies a “Comma” p attern in the incoming data stream which is misaligned to the current framing boundary the receiver will re-synchronize the recovered data in order to align the data to the new “Comma” pattern. Re-synchronization ensures that the “ Comma ” c haracter is output on the internal 10-bit bus so that bits 0 through 9 equal ‘ 0011111xxx ’ o r ‘1100000xxx’. If the “Comma” pattern is aligned with the current framing boundary, re-synchronization will not change the current alignment. Re-synchronization is always enabled and cannot be turned off when ENDEC is HIGH. After character re-synchronization the VSC7216-01 ensures that within a link, the 8-bit data sent to the transmitting VSC7216-01 will be recovered by the receiving VSC7216-01 in the same bit locations as the transmitter (i.e., Tn(7:0) = Rn(7:0)). When ENDEC is LOW, “Comma” detection and alignment are enabled only if KCHAR is HIGH.

If the 10-bit character does not match any valid value, an Out-of-Band Error is generated which is output on the receiver status bus. Similarly, if the running disparity of the character does not match the expected value, a Disparity Error is generated. The decoder also reports when a K-character is received, and distinguishes the K28.5 (IDLE) character from other K-characters. This status information is combined with LOS State Machine status and FIFO error status, to produce the prioritized per-character link status output information (see Table 8). Elastic Buffer and Channel De-Skewing An elastic buffer is included in each of the four receive channels. Decoded data and status information is written into these buffers on each channel’s recovered clock, and is read on the selected output clock. In addition to allowing decoded data to easily cross from a channel’s recovered clock domain to its output clock domain, the elastic buffers facilitate channel alignment (the reconstruction of a multi-byte word as presented to the transmitting devices), and they facilitate rate matching via IDLE character insertion/deletion when the channel’s recovered clock is not frequency-locked to its output clock. There are three conditions under which a receive channel’s elastic buffer is recentered: the RESETN input, when asserted, recenters the read/write pointers in each elasticity buffer; whenever a “Comma” character is received which changes the receive character ’s framing boundary, the elasticity buffer is recentered; and lastly, it is also recentered whenever the receiver detects the synchronization point in the Word Sync Sequence. All three of these events are associated with chip initialization or link initialization and would not occur during normal data transfer. Note that recentering can result in the loss or duplication of decoded character data and status information. When a condition change transmit timing (e.g., phase shifts in TBC) or shifts phase/alignment into the receiver, the user should initial a Word Sync Event to recenter all elasticity buffers. Otherwise, data corruption could occur. The VSC7216-01 presents recovered data on Rn(7:0) and status on IDLEn, KCHn and ERRn. These outputs are timed either to each channel’s own recovered clock (RCLKn/RCLKNn), to Channel A’s recovered clock (RCLKA/RCLKNA), or to REFCLK. The output timing reference is selected by RMODE(1:0) (see Table 6). The transmitter input skew buffer error outputs TBERRn and the analog signal detect outputs PSDETn and RSDETn are also synchronized to the selected output timing reference. There are two choices for REFCLKbased timing, which differ in the positioning of the data valid window associated with the output signals timed to REFCLK: when RMODE(1:0)=00 REFCLK is approximately centered in the output data valid window as in the VSC7214 and when RMODE(1:0)=01 REFCLK slightly leads the data valid window so that output data appears to have a more typical “Clock-to-Q” timing relationship to REFCLK.

If RMODE(1) is HIGH, each channels’ RCLKn/RCLKNn outputs are complementary outputs at 1/10th or 1/20th the baud rate of the incoming data depending upon DUAL. When RCLKA/RCLKNA is selected as the output timing reference, the Channel B, C and D RCLKn/ RCLKNn outputs are copies of RCLKA/RCLKNA. If RMODE(1) is LOW, then each channels’ RCLKn/ RCLKNn outputs are held in a LOW/HIGH state, respectively, and the data and status outputs are timed to REFCLK. If DUAL is HIGH, all data at the four output ports are synchronously clocked out on both positive and negative edges of the selected word clock at 1/20th the baud rate. If DUAL is LOW, the data is clocked out of the VSC7216-01 only on the rising edge of the selected word clock at 1/10th the baud rate.

The data is clocked out of the elastic buffers with word clock. If the transmitting device’s REFCLK is not precisely frequency-locked to a receive channel’s word clock, the channel’s elastic buffer will tend to gradually fill or empty as the recovered clock (which is by definition frequency-locked to the transmitter ’s REFCLK) steadily drifts in phase relative to the word clock. In order to accommodate frequency differences between a transmitter ’s REFCLK and the word clock, the VSC7216-01 can automatically perform rate matching by either deleting or duplicating IDLE characters. The FLOCK input must be LOW to enable rate matching which, based on how the WSI input is connected, can either be performed in each channel individually or can be performed in parallel across a group of channels that are word-aligned. This is discussed in detail in the Word Alignment section below. It is the user ’s responsibility to ensure that the frequency at which IDLEs are simultaneously transmitted on each channel accommodates the frequency differences, if any, in their system architecture. Not meeting the IDLE density requirements could result in Underrun/Overrun Errors. However, the use of a continuous stream of IDLE characters should be avoided when rate matching is enable. The IDLE addition/deletion logic relies on the status bits (see Table 8 for details) to identify K28.5 IDLE characters. The use of continuous IDLE characters will force the VSC7216-01 into the RESYNC state (see Figure 9) resulting in a status bit sequence which the addition/deletion logic does not recognize as an IDLE character. The elastic buffer is designed to allow a maximum phase drift of +2 or -2 serial clock bit times between resynchronizations, which sets a limit on the maximum data “packet” length allowed between IDLEs. This maximum packet length depends on the frequency difference between the transmitting and receiving device’s REFCLKs. Let ∆φ represent phase drift in bit times, and let 2 π represent one full 10-bit character of phase drift. Limiting phase drift to two bit times means the following inequality must be satisfied: (1) ∆φ ≤ ( 0.2 × 2 π ) Let L be the number of 10-bit characters transmitted, and let ∆f be the frequency offset in ppm. The total phase drift in bit times is given by: (2) ∆φ = ( ∆ f ⁄ 10 ) × 2 π L 6 A simple expression for maximum packet length as a function of frequency offset is derived by substituting (2) in (1) and solving for L: (3) L ≤ ( 0.2 × 10 ) ⁄ ∆ f 6 As an example, if the frequency offset is 200ppm, the maximum packet length should not be more than 1K bytes. To increase the maximum packet length L, decrease the frequency offset ∆f. Please note that if only one K28.5 is transmitted between “packets” of data, it might be dropped during compensation for phase drift. If the user must have at least one K28.5 between these two packets, then two K28.5s must be transmitted. Word Alignment The VSC7216-01 performs channel-to-channel word alignment. In this mode of operation, if the data from all four channels on the transmitting VSC7216-01 (e.g., the 4 Tn(7:0) busses) is viewed as a 32-bit word, then the receiving VSC7216-01 will recover an identical word. For example, if a transmit pattern was ‘ABCD’, © VITESSE SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION • 741 Calle Plano • Camarillo, CA 93012 Tel: (800) VITESSE • FAX: (805) 987-5896 • Email: prodinfo@vitesse.com Internet: www.vitesse.com G52352-0, Rev 3.2 05/05/01 Page 11 VITESSE SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION Multi-Gigabit Interconnect Chip Multi-Gigabit Interconnect Chip Preliminary Data Sheet VSC7216-01 VSC7216 ‘EFGH’, ‘IJKL’, etc., the receiver should not recover data words as ‘ABGD’, ‘EFKH’, ‘IJOL’, etc. This requires the four transmit channels to obtain input data on a common clock (e.g., TMODE(2:0)=000 or 1X0) and the four receive channels to present output data on a common word clock (e.g., RMODE(1:0)=0X or 10). Within the receiver there are elastic buffers used to deskew the four channels and align them to a common word clock. An elastic buffer allows the channels’ input to be skewed up to ±6 bit times (12 bit times total skew between any two channels) in order to accommodate circuit imperfections, differences in transmission delay and jitter. Multiple VSC7216-01 devices can also be used in synchronous operation if the skew between all serial input pairs is maintained less than ±6 serial clock bit times. This allows easy implementation of robust systems, and is discussed in greater detail in the Using Multiple VSC7216-01s in Parallel section. In order to perform word alignment, a synchronization point must be seen across all aligned receive channels within the +/-6 bit time window. The VSC7216-01 receiver recognizes the first four characters of the Word Sync Sequence (either K28.5+ K28.5+ K28.5- K28.5- or K28.5- K28.5- K28.5+ K28.5+) as the synchronization point. As a model for understanding, consider the case where a VSC7216-01 transmitter sends 32 bits of data to the receiver via copper media which has small cable length differences causing a channel-tochannel skew. All transmit channels that are to be word aligned transmit the Word Sync Sequence in parallel. On detection of the synchronization point, the receivers will reposition the recovered data within their elastic buffers in order to align all four channels and remove any channel-to-channel skew. All normal data characters following the Word Sync Sequence will be properly word aligned. In the process of channel alignment, one or two of the final twelve K28.5 characters in the Word Sync Sequence may be deleted or duplicated. This ensures that each transmitted 32-bit word is recovered correctly. The VSC7216-01 is capable of performing rate matching in word-aligned applications by inserting or deleting IDLEs in parallel across the aligned receive channels. This requires that the word-aligned data streams contain IDLEs inserted in parallel on all transmit channels (e.g., an IDLE “word”) according to the IDLE density requirement previously described. Word alignment is enabled by connecting the WSI input to a WSO output, either from the same device if a single device is used, or from another device if multiple devices are used in parallel to align more than four channels. The FLOCK input state and WSI input source determine whether or not rate matching (IDLE deletion or duplication) will be performed, and whether it is done independently on each channel or in parallel across aligned channels. Word alignment is disabled when WSI is not connected to a WSO output. Rate matching is disabled when either FLOCK is HIGH or WSI is held LOW (see Table 7).

The first row disables both word alignment and rate matching. (The fourth and fifth row configurations function identically to the first row.) The second row configures the channels to operate independently with rate matching. Word alignment is disabled, and IDLEs will be dropped/duplicated independently in each channel as required. The third row configures the part to perform word alignment and rate matching. The receive channels will be aligned per the device driving WSO, and IDLE words will be dropped/duplicated across the aligned channels as required. The last row configures the part to perform word alignment and disables rate matching. This mode of operation is appropriate for a frequency-locked application where it desired to align the receive channels without altering the received data streams. Using Multiple VSC7216-01s in Parallel Multiple VSC7216-01s can be used in parallel to form wider bus widths. In order for word alignment to function correctly across multiple devices, each transmit channel’s input data must be transmitted on a common clock, and each receive channel’s output data must also be aligned to a common word clock. This requires that all transmitting devices use either the same or identical REFCLKs, and that TMODE(2:0)=000 (inputs timed to REFCLK) or TMODE(2:0)=1X0 (inputs timed to TBCA). If inputs are timed to TBCA, then all transmitting devices must use either the same or identical TBCAs. Since all receive channels must use a common word clock, the receiving devices must also use the same or identical REFCLKs and it must be selected as the word clock for all receive channels (RMODE(1:0)=0X). If the transmitting devices’ R EFCLKs are not frequency-locked to the receiving devices’ REFCLKs, IDLEs will have to be added to or dropped from all the channels at the same time. In order to implement this, one VSC7216-01 is arbitrarily chosen as the “Master” and its WSO output is driven to the WSI inputs of all the receiving VSC7216-01s, including itself. WSO is asserted prior to the VSC7216-01 adding/dropping IDLEs so all the VSC7216-01s will operate simultaneously. WSO uses a simple 3-bit serial protocol, synchronous to the Master channel’s word clock for indicating the required synchronization action to other VSC7216-01s. A steady LOW level indicates no action is required. ‘101’ indicates that Master Channel A has seen a Word Sync Event. The relative timing relationship between receiving a Word Sync Event (on all channels together) and seeing ‘101’ on the WSI input in the other channels allows these channels to word-synchronize with Master Channel A. ‘110’ indicates that the next IDLE encountered in the receive data stream should be deleted. ‘111’ indicates that an IDLE should be inserted after the next IDLE encountered in the receive data stream. Note that the arbitrarily chosen Master Channel A must be an active channel. Decoder Bypass Mode If ENDEC is LOW, the 8B/10B decoder is bypassed and a 10-bit received character Rn(9:0) is output from each receive channel. The KCHn output becomes Rn8, and ERRn becomes Rn9. Character alignment is handled differently in this mode of operation. As mentioned in the “Encoder Bypass Mode ” s ection, the KCHAR input becomes ENCDET which enables Comma detection and re-synchronization when HIGH, and disables re-synchronization when LOW. Only the ‘0011111xxx’ version of the “Comma” pattern is recognized when ENDEC is LOW. The IDLEn output becomes COMDET (Comma Detect) which signals detection of the ‘0011111xxx’ Comma pattern in the current 10-bit output character when HIGH. This mode of operation is equivalent to a 10-bit interface commonly found in serializer/deserializers for the Fibre Channel (VSC7125) and Gigabit Ethernet markets (VSC7135).

In order for this mode of operation to function without errors, the word clock source as selected by RMODE(1:0) must be frequency-locked to the REFCLK of the remote transmitting device in each channel. This is guaranteed when RMODE(1:0) = 11. For other choices of RMODE(1:0), the frequency-locked condition must be guaranteed by system design. When DUAL is HIGH and RMODE(1:0) = 10 or 11, the character containing the ‘0011111xxx’ “Comma” pattern is aligned to RCLKn/RCLKNn in each channel so that COMDET will be asserted on the falling edge of RCLKn (rising edge of RCLKNn). This is done by adjusting the latency through the elastic buffer; the recovered clock is never stretched or slivered. When the “Comma” pattern changes the framing boundary, data characters prior to the assertion of COMDET on the falling edge of RCLKn may be corrupted. Receiver State Machine Each channel contains a Loss of Synchronization State Machine (LSSM) which is responsible for detecting and handling loss of bit, channel, word and word clock synchronization in a controlled manner. There are three states in the LSSM: LOSS_OF_SYNC, RESYNC, and SYNC_ACQUIRED as shown in the state diagram of Figure 9. The RESYNC state is entered when a 10-bit word has been received which contains the 7-bit Comma pattern (e.g., a K28.5 IDLE character). After entering the RESYNC state, the VSC7216-01 will stay in it until a valid, non-Comma transmission is received, then it transitions to the SYNC_ACQUIRED state indicating a normal operating condition. The RESYNC state is re-entered if four consecutive “Commas” are received or if a single “Comma” is received that changes the 10B character framing boundary. The LOSS_OF_SYNC state is entered whenever four consecutive invalid transmissions have been detected or when the occurrences of invalid transmission outnumber those of valid transmission by four. The relative occurrences of invalid verses valid transmissions are monitored with a simple up/down counter that increments when an invalid transmission is detected and decrements otherwise. The LSSM transitions to the LOSS_OF_SYNC state when the counter reaches four, and the counter is reset. A state diagram for the invalid transmission counter is shown in Figure 10. The VSC7216-01 receiver will stay in the LOSS_OF_SYNC state until a valid “Comma” pattern is detected. Note that the RESYNC state is entered whenever the 10B framing boundary is changed, and whenever the Word Sync Sequence is received. When ENDEC is LOW, the ERRn, KCHn and IDLEn outputs are redefined and the decoder and associated LSSM logic in each channel is unused.

Since this status is encoded, multiple conditions could occur simultaneously so the states are prioritized as indicated (1 being highest priority). For example, if both Out-of-Band and Disparity Errors occur, only an Out-of-Band Error is reported because it has higher priority. The ERRn, KCHn and IDLEn status signals apply to the data on Rn(7:0) on a per-character basis. The only exception to this is the Underrun/Overrun indication, which is asserted coincident with the duplicated character when an underrun occurs, and is asserted following the deleted character (i.e., on the cycle where the deleted character should have appeared) when overrun occurs.

Both serial and parallel loopback functions are provided. Table 9: Loopback Mode Selection LBENn(1:0) 00 01 10 11 Loopback Mode Normal Operation Internal Parallel Loopback Internal Serial Loopback Reserved When LBENn(1:0)=10, Serial Loopback mode is selected, the transmitter’s serial transmit data is internally connected to the receiver ’s CRU input. The serial loopback paths are labeled LBTXn in the VSC7216-01 block diagram on the first page. This allows parallel data on Tn(7:0) to be encoded, serialized, looped back, deserialized and decoded. This mode is intended for the system to verify functionality of the local VSC7216-01 prior to attempting to establish an external link. The PTXn and RTXn outputs are unaffected by the state of LBENn(1:0). When LBENn(1:0)=01, Parallel Loopback mode is selected. The Rn(7:0) outputs are looped back to the Tn(7:0) inputs (Figure 11). WSENn does not have a loopback source and is internally connected to a logic LOW. KCHAR does not have a loopback source and is internally connected to a logic HIGH. The C/Dn input is obtained by decoding the link status outputs such that either a data character, special character, or IDLE (K28.5) is transmitted. When the link is in the LOS or RESYNC states, C/Dn is asserted and the data path is set to 0xBC so that an IDLE will be transmitted. For other link status conditions C/Dn follows the KCHn status bit. This guarantees that IDLE and special characters will be correctly looped back along with normal data, and also has the effect of looping back the data received as a normal data character when a disparity error, out-of-band character, or underflow/overflow link status condition occurs.

This data is looped back to the transmitter with TMODE(2:0) internally set to 000. This guarantees that the parallel loopback data to be re-transmitted will be frequency-locked to the transmitter ’s REFCLK, but means that the receiver parallel output data timing will not match the normal system timing that is externally selected by RMODE(1:0), so the parallel output data should be ignored in this mode of operation. This internal loopback configuration also allows rate matching to be performed in the receivers’ elastic buffers. Rate matching is controlled and operates exactly the same way that it does in normal mode. This is needed to avoid receiver Overrun/Underrun errors in the loopback device if the remote transmitting device’s REFCLK is not frequency locked to the loopback device’s REFCLK. Keep in mind that the LBENn(1:0), RXP/ Rn, PTXENn, RTXENn and BIST inputs must all be configured appropriately in order for end-to-end parallel loopback to function correctly in a user environment. Parallel Loopback mode is internally disabled when BIST mode is enabled. Built-In Self Test Operation Built-In Self Test operation is enabled when the BIST input is HIGH, which causes TMODE(2:0) to be internally set to 000. Upon entering BIST mode, the transmitter will issue a Word Sync Sequence in order to recenter the elasticity buffers in the receive channel. Each transmitter then repeatedly sends a simple 256-byte incrementing data pattern (prior to 8B/10B encoding) followed by three IDLE characters (K28.5). Note that this incrementing pattern plus three IDLEs will cause both disparities of each data character and the IDLE character to be transmitted, and contains a sufficient IDLE density for any application requiring IDLE insertion/deletion. It is up to the user to enable IDLE insertion/deletion if the receiver ’s word clock is not frequency-locked to the transmitter ’s REFCLK. Each receiver monitors incoming data for this pattern and indicates if any errors are detected. Correct reception of the pattern is reported on each receiver ’s TBERRn output; a LOW means the pattern is being received correctly and a HIGH means that errors are detected. When BIST transitions from LOW to HIGH, each TBERRn output is initialized HIGH. It will be cleared LOW whenever one or more IDLE characters followed by all 256 data characters are sequentially received without error, and set HIGH whenever a pattern mis-match or receiver error is encountered. Each channel functions independently, no attempt is made to wordalign the receive channels. Received data and associated status will be output as in normal operation. Please note that Serial Loopback mode and receiver output timing mode selection via RMODE(1:0) operate independently of BIST mode, but BIST mode disables Parallel Loopback mode.

It is strongly recommended that the VSC7216-01 not be connected in any way through the WSO and/or WSI pins to a VSC7211 or VSC7214. Serial Link Compatibility The VSC7216-01 uses the same Fibre Channel 8b/10b encoding scheme and the same Word Sync Sequence used in the VSC7211 and VSC7214. The only difference in serial link operation is that the VSC7211 and VSC7214 require four consecutive identically-aligned “Comma” patterns to set the character framing boundary, while the VSC7216-01 requires a single “Comma.” This means that from the LOSS_OF_SYNC state, the VSC7216-01 will make an earlier transition to the RESYNC state (one “Comma” instead of four) as shown in Figure 9. Once out of the LOSS_OF_SYNC state, there is no difference in receiver behavior in the absence of data link errors. When transmitting in 32-bit mode from a VSC7216-01 to a VSC7211 or VSC7214, use TMODE(2:0)=000 or =1X0 (common transmit interface timing source) to minimize transmitter inter-channel skew. Parallel Interface Compatibility In general, the VSC7216-01 low-speed parallel interfaces can be configured so that there are input and output signals that are compatible with their VSC7211 and VSC7214 counterparts. On the transmit interface, the signals Tn(7:0) and C/Dn behave identically on the VSC7216-01 as long as the input timing is referenced to REFCLK (e.g., TMODE(2:0)=000). On the receive interface, the signals Rn(7:0), ERRn, KCHn and IDLEn behave identically on the VSC7216-01 as long as the four receive channels present output data centered around REFCLK (RMODE(1:0)=00) or timed to RCLKA/RCLKNA (RMODE(1:0)=10). When RMODE(1:0)=10, the VSC7216-01 RCLKn/RCLKNn outputs provide four copies of RCLKA/RCLKNA, which are equivalent to the VSC7211 and VSC7214 RCLK/RCLKN outputs. The VSC7216-01 KCHAR input is no longer a synchronous input timed to REFCLK as on the VSC7211 and VSC7214. It is a static input used to define the control character encoding mode when C/Dn=1, as shown in Table 3. The VSC7216-01 also has a separate WSENn input per channel instead of a common WSYNC input as on the VSC7211 and VSC7214. Operational Mode Compatibility The VSC7211 and VSC7214 specifications define eight operating modes based on the binary combinations of the RCLKEN, FLOCK and INDEP inputs. Note that these mode inputs control VSC7211 and VSC7214 receiver operation only, and have no effect on transmitter operation. For each of these modes, the equivalent VSC7216-01 receiver configuration is presented. VSC7214 MODE 0: RCLKEN=LOW, FLOCK=LOW, INDEP=LOW Receiver Rn(7:0), ERRn, KCHn and IDLEn outputs are synchronous to REFCLK, IDLE insertion/deletion is enabled, and the receive channels are word-aligned. The VSC7216-01 should be configured with RMODE(1:0)=00, FLOCK=0, and WSI connected to its own WSO or to the WSO of another VSC7216-01 if multiple devices are to be used in parallel. The WSI connection allows IDLE insertion/deletion to occur in parallel across all word-aligned channels.

These inputs control the channel serial or parallel loopback configuration as described in Table 9. I TTL RX input Primary/Redundant serial input select for channel n. When LBENn(1) is LOW, this input selects PRXn+/- as the RX serial input source when HIGH and RRXn+/- as the serial input source when LOW. Primary analog Signal DETect, channel n. This output goes HIGH when the amplitude on PRXn is greater than 200mV, LOW when the input is less than 100mV. PSDETn is not defined when the input is between 100mV and 200mV. Output timing is same as Rn(7:0). Redundant analog Signal DETect, channel n. This output goes HIGH when the amplitude on RRXn is greater than 200 mV, LOW when the input is less than 100mV. RSDETn is not defined when the input is between 100mV and 200mV. Output timing is same as Rn(7:0). REFCLK differential Positive and Negative PECL or single-ended TTL inputs. This rising edge of this clock latches transmit data and control into the input register. It also provides the reference clock, at 1/10th or 1/20th of the baud rate to the PLL as selected by DUAL. If TTL, connect to REFCLKP but leave REFCLKN open. If PECL, connect both REFCLKP and REFCLKN. Loop Filter CAPacitor for clock generation PLL. Nominally 0.1µF, amplitude is less than 3V.
