NSC DS80EP100

DS80EP100
5 to 12.5 Gbps, Power-Saver Equalizer for Backplanes and
Cables
General Description
Features
National’s Power-saver equalizer compensates for transmission medium losses and minimizes medium-induced deterministic jitter. Performance is guaranteed over the full range
of 5 to 12.5 Gbps. The DS80EP100 requires no power to operate. The equalizer operates anywhere in the data path to
minimize media-induced deterministic jitter in both FR4 traces
and cable applications. Symmetric I/O structures support full
duplex or half duplex applications. Linear compensation is
provided independent of line coding or protocol. The device
is ideal for both bi-level and multi-level signaling.
The equalizer is available in a 6 pin leadless LLP package
with a space saving 2.2 mm X 2.5 mm footprint. This tiny
package provides maximum flexibility in placement and routing of the Power-saver equalizer.

Note 1: “Absolute Maximum Ratings” indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur, including inoperability and degradation of device reliability
and/or performance. Functional operation of the device and/or non-degradation at the Absolute Maximum Ratings or other conditions beyond those indicated in
the Recommended Operating Conditions is not implied. The Recommended Operating Conditions indicate conditions at which the device is functional and the
device should not be operated beyond such conditions.
Note 2: Typical values represent most likely parametric norms, TA = +25 degC, and at the Recommended Operation Conditions at the time of product
characterization and are not guaranteed.
Note 3: Differential signal to Equalizer, measured at the input to a transmission line, see point A of Figure 1. The transmission line is Z0 = 100Ω, 6-mil, microstrip
in FR4 material.
Note 4: Deterministic jitter is measured at the differential outputs (point C of Figure 1), minus the deterministic jitter before the test channel (point A of Figure 1).
Test pattern: PRBS- 7 .
Note 5: Specification is guaranteed by characterization and is not tested in production.
Note 6: The Electrical Characteristics tables list guaranteed specifications under the listed Recommended Operating Conditions except as otherwise modified
or specified by the Electrical Characteristics Conditions and/or Notes. Typical specifications are estimations only and are not guaranteed.

DS80EP100 DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The DS80EP100 Power-Saver equalizer is a passive network
circuit composed of resistive, capacitive, and inductive components (See Figure 4). A Differential bridged T-network compensates for the transmission medium losses and minimizes
medium-induced deterministic jitter with FR4 and cables. The
equalizer attenuates low frequency signals and is a bandpass
filter at the resonant frequency. The response is linear and
symmetric.
SYMMETRIC I/O STRUCTURES
The symmetry of the passive equalization network allows bidirectional operation. Signals receive equal compensation
regardless of the direction of data flow. (See Simplified Block
Diagram).
PCB LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS FOR DIFFERENTIAL
PAIRS AND NO CONNECT PADS
The differential I/Os must have a controlled differential
impedance of 100Ω. It is preferable to route all differential
lines exclusively on one layer of the board. The use of vias
should be avoided if possible. If vias must be used, they
should be used sparingly and must be placed symmetrically
for each side of a given differential pair. Differential signals
should be routed away from other signals and noise sources
on the printed circuit board. Pin 2, Pin 5, and the center DAP
have to be left as no connect. Therefore, do not connect the
landing pads of these pins to the power or ground plane. See
AN-1187 for additional information on the LLP package.
I/O TERMINATIONS
The DS80EP100 I/O impedance is 100Ω differential. The
equalizer is designed for 100Ω-balanced differential signals
and is not intended for single-ended transmission.
LINEAR COMPENSATION
The unique linear compensation feature of the DS80EP100
combined with the tiny package allows maximum flexibility in
placement. The equalizer can be placed anywhere in the data
