DS25C400
Quad 2.5 Gbps Serializer/Deserializer
General Description
Features
The DS25C400 is a four-channel serializer/deserializer
(SERDES) for high-speed serial data transmission over controlled impedance transmission media such as a printed
circuit board backplane or twin-axial cable. It is capable of
transmitting and receiving serial data of 2.125 - 2.5 Gbps or
1.0625 - 1.25 Gbps per channel.
n Quad Serializer/Deserializer
n Data rate per channel: 2.125 - 2.5 Gbps or 1.0625 1.25 Gbps
n Supports 106.25 - 125 MHz differential reference input
clock
n Low jitter clock synthesizers for clock distribution
n 8-bit or 10-bit parallel I/O Interface conforms to
SSTL_18 Class 1 (also interfaces to 1.8V HSTL or 1.8V
LVCMOS)
n On-chip 8b/10b encoder and decoder
n High speed serial CML drivers
n High speed serial CML on-chip terminations
n Selectable pre-emphasis and equalization
n On-chip Comma Detect for character alignment
n On-chip local loopback test mode
n On-chip pattern generator and error checker to support
BIST
n Hot plug protection
n Low power, 420 mW (typ) per channel
n 324-ball TE-PBGA package
n Operating temperature −40˚C to +85˚C
Each transmit section of the DS25C400 contains a low-jitter
clock synthesizer, an 8-bit or 10-bit parallel to serial converter with built in 8b/10b encoder, and a CML output driver
with selectable pre-emphasis optimized for backplane applications. Its receive section contains an input limiting amplifier with on-chip terminations and selectable equalization
levels, a clock/data recovery PLL, a comma detector and a
serial to parallel converter with built-in 8b/10b decoder.
The DS25C400 has built-in local loopback test mode,
pseudo-random pattern generator and error detector to support self-testing.
The DS25C400 requires no external components for its
clock synthesizers and clock recovery PLL’s. Three external
resistors are needed to set the proper bias currents and
compensate for process variations to achieve tight tolerance
on-chip terminations.

Note 1: “Absolute Maximum Ratings” are the ratings beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. They are not meant to imply that the device
should be operated at these limits.
Note 2: Typical parameters are measured at VDDQ = 1.8 V, DVDD = 1.8 V, VDDHS = 2.5 V, VDDIO = 2.5 V,VDDB = 2.5 V, TA = 25˚C. They are for reference purposes,
and are not production-tested.
Note 3: Duty cycle is defined as high period (tWH) or low period (tWL) ratio to clock period (tWH + tWL), measured at 50% of the differential voltage across REFCLK+
and REFCLK−.
Note 4: K28.5 is a repeating periodic pattern (hex: 283, 17C - bin: 110000 0101, 001111 1010). D21.5 is a repeating periodic pattern (hex: 155 - bin: 1010101010).
RPAT is a random data pattern with valid 8b/10b data codes of K28.5, K28.5, D3.1, D7.2, D11.3, D15.4, D19.5, D23.6, D27.7, D20.0, D21.1, D25.2 (hex: 283, 283,
263, 2B8, 30B, 2C5, 153, 197, 1E4, 0B4, 255, 299).
Note 5: Output Jitter and Jitter Tolerance are measured through characterization on sample basis. They are not production-tested. Output jitter is measured at a
sample size of TBD. REFCLK ± differential amplitude is 1.2 Vp-p with jitter of 3 ps (rms) or 25 ps (pk-pk) for Tx output jitter testing.

directly to DO ± . The Tx output jitter specification is relaxed
below a frequency of bit rate/1,667 because the Rx PLL can
track very low frequency jitter. To ensure good output jitter
performance, REFCLK should be free from excessive low
frequency jitter and have random jitter less than 30–40 ps
p-p. The REFCLK ± input amplitude should be a minimum of
1 Vp-p differential for the best Tx output jitter performance.
The reference clock input has an internal bias network that
sets its common mode voltage to 1.75V. The REFCLK differential input impedance is 200Ω. To terminate into 100Ω
differential, an additional external 200Ω termination impedance is required. If the common mode voltage of the driver
does not match the REFCLK common mode voltage coupling capacitors can be used to remove the driver DC voltage. This AC coupled mode allows the REFCLK to be interfaced to LVDS, PECL, LVPECL, LVEP, PECL, and other
differential logic levels. See Figures 10, 11.
The frequency range of REFCLK ± is 106.25 - 125 MHz to
support data rate of 1.0625 - 1.25 Gbps or 2.125 - 2.5 Gbps
at high data rate mode. The frequency accuracy should be
better than ± 100 ppm.
Functional Descriptions
The serial interface is optimized for backplane applications
with user selectable pre-emphasis at driver and/or equalization filters at receivers. A typical point-to-point backplane link
consists of two high-speed connectors (such as Teradyne
HSD family) and 20 inches 100Ω coupled differential traces
usually implemented with strip-lines on FR4 or Getek board
material.
REFERENCE CLOCK
Each of the four serializers is clocked by a high speed clock
derived from its own internal low jitter clock synthesizer,
which is phase-locked to the input clock at REFCLK ± . No
external components are required for the clock synthesizing
PLL’s. REFCLK ± should be a differential CML, or AC
coupled differential clock. Any termination resistors should
be located close to the REFCLK ± input pins. REFCLK ±
should be connected to a balanced differential clock from a
crystal source or clock driver.
The clock synthesizers are low pass in nature. REFCLK jitter
above 10 MHz will be attenuated by the Tx PLL. Any low
frequency jitter component at REFCLK ± will be transferred

TRANSMIT PARALLEL INPUT DATA
Each serializer accepts parallel transmit data at TD[0–9],
clocked in by an input clock TBC. TBC must be synchronized
to REFCLK ± 100 ppm. An input FIFO is used to compensate
for the phase difference between TBC and the internal byte
clock that samples TD[0–9].

When the 8-bit mode is enabled (EN_10B=0), an internal
8b/10b encoder is activated to convert TD[0–8] into the
corresponding 10-bit code group. TD[0–7] is the data byte,
while TD[8] is used as the D-group or K-group qualifier.
22
switching is used. TD[0–9] transitions are synchronous to
both the rising and falling edges of TBC. The frequency of
TBC is thus half the transfer rate frequency at TD[0–9]. See
Figure 5.
(Continued)
When 10-bit mode is used (EN_10B=1), the serializer expects coded 10-bit data at TD[0–9], with its internal 8b/10b
encoder disabled.
The serializer can be configured in the high-data-rate mode
or low-data-rate mode determined by EN_HDR pin. In the
high-data-rate mode (EN_HDR=1), source-synchronous
REFCLK (RES3=0)
In the low-data-rate mode, (EN_HDR=0), the serializer runs
at half data rate. TD[0–9] is clocked in at the falling strobe
edge of TBC. See Figure 4.

± 10%. The limiting amplifier is capable to work with minimum input differential voltage of 200 mVp-p across RI+ and
RI−.
When serial bit stream is AC coupled to RI ± , the internal
termination resistors can be configured as a divider to provide DC bias to RI+ and RI−, and form an equivalent 50Ω
parallel termination. EN_RAC is set to logic high to enable
the receiver’s bias network.
The internal 10-bit coded data word is serialized and clocked
out at DO ± . Bit 0 (LSB) of the 10-bit code-group is shifted
out first.
TD[0–9] and TBC are single-ended SSTL logic. They expect
input signal swing of 1.8V, and switch at approximately 0.9V.
TRANSMIT SERIAL DATA OUTPUT
The serialized data bit stream is output at DO ± , driven by a
differential current mode logic (CML) driver. Both DO+ and
DO− are terminated with on-chip resistors to VDDHS. The
values of the internal termination resistors are tightly controlled to 50Ω ± 10%.
With an external load of 50Ω to VDDHS or AC coupled to
GND, the driver provides single-ended voltage swing of
533 mV nominal, with a common mode voltage of about
(VDDHS −0.27V). To compensate against edge degradation
due to bandwidth-limited transmission medium, the driver
has 3 selectable steps of pre-emphasis providing additional
current drive for one bit period following a data level transition. The pre-emphasis improves signal quality at the receiving end of the transmission medium and enhances error rate
performance of the downstream receiver.

SIGNAL DETECT
The signal detect circuit generates a Loss of Signal (LOS) to
indicate the amplitude of incoming serial data is less than
minimum level allowed by the link budget. Its purpose is to
indicate a complete loss of signal such as a disconnected or
broken cable. A poor quality link may provide enough signal
for LOS to remain off, even though the signal level is noncompliant and the BER objective is not met. Hysteresis is
used to so that the LOS output does not rapidly change state
with small variations in received power. The lower bound is
set high enough so that Near End Cross Talk (NEXT) will not
cause a false signal detect. When the input differential voltage at RI ± falls below 80 mVp-p max, Loss of Signal Detect
Indicator is turned on (LOS=1) to signal for invalid data
transmission. RD[0–9] are forced high during loss of signal.
Once LOS has gone high the input signal must reach the
higher differential voltage of 200 mV (max) to indicate that
the incoming signal is above the minimum level. Common
control pin EN_LOS is a LOS output control pin. When
EN_LOS = 1, the LOS circuit which control the RD[0-9]
outputs are disabled. The RD[0-9] will not be forced high
upon LOS detection.
Descriptions
EQUALIZATION
The receiver front-end provides 3 steps of equalization filter
to improve the eye opening of the input data at RI ± . The
equalization filter is a first order, designed to equalize transmission loss and reduce ISI for long board traces in a
backplane.
Pre-emphasis enabled. Drive
current = 39.7 mA at first bit after
data transition.
Note: The Pre-emphasis current is only applied to the load termination for
the first bit after a data transition. However, the pre-emphasis current increases the power supply DC current by the same amount. For power and
thermal calculations consideration must be paid to on chip vs. off chip power
dissipation.
RECEIVE SERIAL DATA INPUT
The receiver front-end is a limiting amplifier with on-chip
CML terminations from RI+ and RI− to VDDHS. The values of
the internal termination resistors are tightly controlled to 50Ω

The re-timed bit stream is deserialized into 10-bit word
clocked by the recovered clock. In the 10-bit mode
(EN_10B=1), the parallel recovered data code-group is output at RD[0–9]. In the 8-bit mode (EN_10B=0), the internal
8b/10b decoder is enabled to convert the 10-bit code-group
into the corresponding 8-bit data byte and output at RD[0–7].
RD[8] is used as qualifier to indicate if RD[0–7] belongs to
the D-group (RD8=0), or K-group (RD8=1). RD[9] is used as
a second error pin that is only used to flag 8b/10b code and
disparity errors.

DESERIALIZER
The clock and data recovery PLL accepts serial NRZ
re-shaped bit stream from the receiver front-end. It recovers
clock from the incoming bit stream, and re-times the data. It
is optimized to work with 10-bit coded bit stream to maintain
DC balance and ensure enough edge transitions to maintain
synchronization. The data rate of the PLL can be 2.125 - 2.5
Gbps or 1.0625 - 1.25 Gbps determined by REFCLK ± and
EN_HDR. In the absence of input bit stream, the PLL is
centered to the internal local transmit clock. It is capable to
re-time data with maximum frequency tolerance of ± 200
ppm from its local transmit clock. No external component is
needed for the PLL.
RBC1 (EN_RBC=1)
See Figure 7
Two recovered byte clock RBC0 and RBC1 are available for
clocking the parallel data bus RD[0–9]. RBC0 and RBC1 are
180˚ out of phase. Users can latch even- and odd-numbered
data word at RD[0–9] with the rising edge of successive
RBC1 and RBC0. RBC0 and RBC1 have half the transfer
rate frequency. In the low-data-rate mode (EN_HDR=0), the
deserializer runs at half data rate.
When EN_RBC=1, RBC frequency is same as the bus transfer rate. Each rising edge of RBC1 strobes data word at
RD[0–9]. See Figure 7.

When parallel data is serialized, the character alignment is
lost. The Deserializer uses Comma character detection to
establish the correct bit boundary of the 10-bit word. This
process is called “code-group alignment”. When a Comma
character is detected, the CDET indicator is pulsed high, the
corresponding Comma character is output at RD[0–9] (10-bit
mode), or RD[0–8] (8-bit mode). During the alignment,
RBC1 is stretched and the rising edge of RBC1 is aligned
with the Comma character. The code-group alignment is
enabled by EN_CDET active. When EN_CDET is low, the
CDET indicator still functions, but no alignment is initiated
when a comma character is detected.
DS25C400 detects both the +K28.5 and −K28.5 comma
characters. These are unique binary patterns that cannot
occur in valid data. A bit error could produce a misaligned
comma character. This would cause an improper word realignment, if comma detect is enabled. Any higher order
comma detect function that required the detection of multiple
misaligned comma characters before initiating word realignment must be added externally by the user.
BIST
DS25C400 has a built-in 27−1 PRBS (pseudo-random bit
sequence) generator, an alternating 1_0 generator, and a
repeating ± K28.5 pattern, selected by EN_PTN0 and
EN_PTN1. When internal pattern generator is enabled, the
parallel input data at TD[0–9] are ignored. The Serializer
converts the test pattern into serial bit stream at DO ± . When
the internal PRBS pattern is selected (EN_PTN1=0,
EN_PTN0=1), an external bit error rate tester can be used to
measure the error rate of the Serializer.
The DS25C400 has a built-in 27−1 PRBS checker in the
Deserializer data path. It is initialized when EN_ERR is
pulsed high then low with a minimum period of 10 µs. This
will allow the internal error checker to achieve synchronization with the incoming (27−1) bit stream. With EN_ERR=0,
ER_n pulses high for 10-bit period if the PRBS checker
detects an error in the receive data word. It provides a simple
mechanism to monitor the Deserializer’s error rate performance by measuring the number of pulses at ER_n pin over
a period of time. When EN_ERR is left high, ER_n will flag
8b/10b disparity and code violation errors instead of PRBS
errors. When the 8b/10b mode is activated, RD[9] becomes
a second error pin that flags 8b/10b errors.
The built-in PRBS generator and error checker, together with
the internal loopback offer very powerful high speed self-test
capability for the DS25C400.
SERIAL LOCAL LOOPBACK
DS25C400 provides an internal loopback of the serial transmit data to the receiver’s limiting amplifier of each channel.
EN_SLB = 1 activates serial local loopback path for all four
channels. DO ± are disabled with output current = 0, and
incoming data at RI ± are ignored. Self test can be performed
by comparing the parallel recovered output data at RD[0–9]
to the parallel transmit input data at TD[0–9]. EN_LOS pin
must be tied high (disabled LOS control of RD[0-9]) during
serial local loopback testing. For normal data transmission
operation using cable or PCB trace, set EN_SLB = 0 and
EN_LOS can be tied low.

POR
Upon application of power, the DS25C400 generates a
power-on reset. During reset, RD[0–9] are set to logic low,
and the LOS outputs are put into inactive state. RBC0 and
RBC1 are at unknown state. The POR circuit monitors both

to within a ± 10%. The external resistor at RTERM should be

the 2.5V supply and the 1.8V supply. The 2.5V POR threshold voltage is approzimately 2.0V. There is about 50mV of
hysteresis for this threshold. The 1.8V POR threshold is
about 1.1V with 50mV of hysteresis. When the POR circuit is
active, the PLL VCO capacitors are discharged to allow
correct operation when a good power level is again established. Futhermore, the POR resets the internal digital
counters to correct settings to be in a ready condition when
supplies have been corrected. A termination resistor calibration sequence will also be executed.
POWER DOWN
There are two control lines that control the power down
modes, PD0 and PD1. With PD0=0 and PD1=0 all four
channels are powered down, which subsequently power
down the reference clock buffers as well as the bias circuits.
This mode will allow measuring an IDDQ or leakage current
test. To properly measure the IDDQ, the following sequence
must be followed: first power up the device, then apply the
reference clock and finally set the device to power down
mode (PD0=0, PD1=0) and remove the reference clock. The
other three states allow one, two, or four channels to be
powered up. The reference clock buffers and bias circuits
are powered up in these states.
RTERM
During power-on reset, the on-chip input termination resistors at RI ± and the termination resistors at DO ± are adjusted at power up and compared to the current through an
external resistor connected from RTERM pin to RTERMPD1
