GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8159 is an asynchronous, protocol agnostic, quad-lane
2:1 switch with a total of 12 differential PECL/CML-compatible
inputs and 12 differential CML outputs. The operation of this
product is optimized for NRZ signaling with data rates up to
3.2 Gbps per lane. Each lane offers two levels of input
equalization and four levels of output pre-emphasis.
The AD8159 consists of four multiplexers and four demultiplexers, one per lane. Each port is a 4-lane link, and each lane
runs up to a 3.2 Gbps data rate independent of the other lanes.
The lanes are switched independently using the four select pins,
SEL[3:0]; each select pin controls one lane of the port. The
AD8159 has low latency and very low lane-to-lane skew.
The main application of the AD8159 is to support redundancy
on both the backplane side and the line interface side of a serial
link. The device has unicast and bicast capability, so it is
configurable to support either 1 + 1 or 1:1 redundancy.
The AD8159 supports reversing the output and input pins on
one of its ports, which helps to connect two ASICs with
opposite pinouts.
The AD8159 is also used for testing high speed serial links by
duplicating incoming data and sending it to the destination port
and to test equipment simultaneously.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD8159 relays received data on the demultiplexer Input
Port C to Output Port A and/or Output Port B, depending on
the mode selected by the BICAST control pin. On the
multiplexer side, the AD8159 relays received data on either
Input Port A or Input Port B to Output Port C, based on the
SEL[3:0] pin states.
The AD8159 is configured by toggling control pins. On the demultiplexer side, when the device is configured in the unicast mode,
it sends the received data on Input Port C to Output Port A or
Output Port B. When the device is configured in the bicast mode,
received data on Input Port C is sent to both Output Port A and
Output Port B.
On the multiplexer side, only received data on Input Port A or
Input Port B is sent to Output Port C, depending on the state of
the SEL[3:0] pins. Table 4 summarizes port selection and
configuration when loopback is disabled (LB_A = LB_B = LB_C
= 0).
When the device is in unicast mode, the output lanes on either
Port A or Port B are in an idle state. In the idle state, the output
tail current is set to 0, and the P and N sides of the lane are
pulled up to the output termination voltage through the on-chip
termination resistors.
INPUT EQUALIZATION (EQ) AND OUTPUT
PRE-EMPHASIS (PE)
In backplane applications, the AD8159 needs to compensate
for signal degradation over potentially long traces. The device
supports two levels of input equalization, configured on a perport basis. Table 6 to Table 8 summarize the high-frequency
gain (EQ) for each control setting as well as the typical length
of backplane trace that can be compensated for each setting.
The AD8159 also has four levels of output pre-emphasis,
configured for each port. The pre-emphasis circuitry adds
a controlled amount of overshoot to the output waveform
to compensate for the loss in a backplane trace.
Table 9 to Table 11 summarize the high-frequency gain, amount
of overshoot, and the typical backplane channel length (including
two connectors) that can be compensated using each setting. A
typical backplane is made of FR4 material with 8 mil wide trace
and 8 mil spacing loosely coupled differential traces. Each
backplane channel consists of two connectors. The total length
of the channel includes three inches of traces on each card.

PORT C REVERSE (CROSSOVER) CAPABILITY
X4
Port C has a reversible I/O capability. The sense (input vs.
output) of the Port C pins can be swapped by toggling the
REVERSE_C control pin. This feature has been added to
facilitate the connection to different ASICs that may have
the opposite pinouts.

AD8159
APPLICATIONS
The main application of the AD8159 is to support redundancy
on both the backplane side and the line interface side of a serial
link. Each port consists of four lanes to support standards such
as XAUI. Figure 38 illustrates redundancy in an XAUI backplane
system. Each line card is connected to two switch fabrics
(primary and redundant). The device can be configured to
support either 1 + 1 or 1:1 redundancy.
PHYSICAL
INTERFACE
Another application for the AD8159 is test equipment for
evaluating high speed serial I/Os running at data rates at or
lower than 3.2 Gbps. Figure 40 illustrates a possible application
of the AD8159 in a simple XAUI link tester.

INTERFACING TO THE AD8159
TERMINATION STRUCTURES
For output ports, there are two 50 Ω resistors connected to the
termination supply. Note that the differential input resistance
for both structures is the same, 100 Ω.
To determine the best strategy for connecting to the high speed
pins of the AD8159, the user must first be familiar with the onchip termination structures. The AD8159 contains two types of
these structures (see Figure 41 and Figure 42): one type for input
and bidirectional ports and one type for output ports.
INPUT COMPLIANCE
The range of allowable input voltages is determined by the
fundamental limitations of the active input circuitry. This range
of signals is normally a function of the common-mode level of
the input signal, the signal swing, and the supply voltage. For a
given input signal swing, there is a range of common-mode
voltages that keeps the high and low voltage excursions within
acceptable limits. Similarly, for a given common-mode input
voltage there is a maximum acceptable input signal swing.
There is also a minimum signal swing that the active input
circuitry can resolve reliably.

Figure 22 and Figure 25 summarize the input voltage ranges for
all ports. Note that the input range is different when comparing
bidirectional ports to strictly input ports. This is a consequence
of the additional circuitry required to support the bidirectional
feature on Port C.

Figure 42. Output Ports
For input and bidirectional ports, the termination structure
consists of two 54.5 Ω resistors connected to a termination
supply and an 1173 Ω resistor connected across the differential
inputs, the latter being a result of the finite differential input
impedance of the equalizer.
AC Coupling
One way to simplify the input circuit and make it compatible
with a wide variety of driving devices is to use ac coupling. This
has the effect of isolating the dc common-mode levels of the
driver and the AD8159 input circuitry. AC coupling requires a
capacitor in series with each single-ended input signal, as shown
in Figure 43. This should be done in a manner that does not
interfere with the high speed signal integrity of the PCB.

AD8159
DC Coupling
When ac coupling is used, the common-mode level at the input
of the device is equal to VTTI. The single-ended input signal
swings above and below VTTI equally. The user can then use
Figure 22 and Figure 25 to determine the acceptable range of
common-mode levels and signal swing levels that satisfy the
input range of the AD8159.
First, consider the dc-coupled case (see Figure 44). A lane on
Output Port A or Output Port B on the AD8159 is dc-coupled
to a receiving device. In this example, the output termination
voltage (VTTO) on the AD8159 is set to the same level as the
input termination voltage (VTTIR) on the receiving device, and
this level sets the high value (VHI) of the single-ended output
voltage. With pre-emphasis low (PE = 0), the maximum singleended current is 16 mA 1 , which flows through the parallel
combination of the 50 Ω on-chip resistor and the 50 Ω far end
termination. Therefore, the low value (VLO) of the output
voltage is equal to
If dc coupling is required, determining the input commonmode level is less straightforward because the configuration of
the driver must be also be considered. In most cases, the user
would set VTTI on the AD8159 to the same level as the driver
output termination voltage, VTTOD. This prevents a continuous
dc current from flowing between the two supply nets. As a
practical matter, both devices can be terminated to the same
physical supply net.
VTTO − 16 mA × (50 Ω || 50 Ω) = VTTO − 400 mV
Consider the following example: A driver is dc-coupled to the
input of the AD8159. The AD8159 input termination voltage
(VTTI) and the driver output termination voltage (VTTOD) are both
set to the same level; that is, VTTI = VTTOD = 3.3 V. If an 800 mV
differential p-p swing is desired, the total output current of the
driver is 16 mA. At balance, the output current is divided evenly
between the two sides of the differential signal path, 8 mA to each
side. This 8 mA of current flows through the parallel combination of the 54.5 Ω input termination resistor on the AD8159
and the 50 Ω output termination resistor on the driver, resulting
in a common-mode level of
VTTI − 8 mA × (50 Ω || 54.5 Ω) = VTTI − 209 mV
Because the minimum allowed voltage at the output is
VCC − 1.6 V, the lowest acceptable value for VTTO is
VCC − 1.6 V + 0.4 V = VCC − 1.2 V
Increasing pre-emphasis to its highest level (PE = 3) results in
a maximum, single-ended current of 28 mA. 2 In this case
VLO = VTTO − 28 mA × (50 Ω || 50 Ω) = VTTO − 700 mV
As a result, the lowest acceptable value for VTTO is
VCC − 1.6 V + 0.7 V = VCC − 0.9 V
It is expected that the minimum VTTO is 300 mV higher than the
case when PE = 0, because increasing the pre-emphasis level
results in a 300 mV lower voltage excursion at the output.
The user can then use Figure 25 to determine the allowable
range of values for VTTI that meets the input compliance range
based on an 800 mV p-p differential swing.
1
The output current for Port C when PE_C = 0 is slightly higher, 20 mA. The
extra 4 mA of current (compared to Port A/Port B) is needed to support the
bidirectional feature.
2
The output current for Port C when PE_C = 3 is 32 mA, for the same reason
as stated in Endnote 1.
OUTPUT COMPLIANCE
Not surprisingly, there is also a range of voltages that satisfies
the requirements of the output devices. This range is specified
as the minimum and maximum voltage (with respect to VCC)
allowed at an output pin.

AC Coupling
The lowest acceptable value for VTTO is
In general, more VTTO supply headroom is required with accoupled outputs. When the outputs are ac-coupled, the average
single-ended current does not see the far end 50 Ω termination
because the capacitor acts as a dc block. For example, with
PE = 0, the single-ended output current alternates from 0 mA
to 16 mA, or 8 mA on average. This 8 mA current flows entirely
through the on-chip 50 Ω termination resistor due to the dc
block.
The single-ended output voltage has an average value of
VTTO − 8 mA × 50 Ω = VTTO − 400 mV
For appropriate data patterns,1 the capacitor acts as a short and
the voltage swing is 400 mV p-p, identical to the dc-coupled case.
The low output voltage is, therefore,
VTTO − 400 mV − 200 mV = VTTO − 600 mV
VCC − 1.6 V + 0.6 V = VCC − 1.0 V
The same exercise can be repeated for other pre-emphasis
settings.
Output Compliance Table
To simplify the task of interfacing to the AD8159 output,
Table 13 is useful as a quick-reference. It provides the minimum
and maximum values for output termination voltage for both
ac and dc coupling. The values in the table are valid for any preemphasis setting.

AC coupling requires that the signal pattern have no long term dc
component. Codes such as 8b/10b, for example, ensure that the data
pattern is benign in an ac-coupled link.

NOTES
1. CENTER FIGURES ARE TYPICAL UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED.
2. THE AD8159 HAS A CONDUCTIVE HEAT SLUG TO HELP DISSIPATE HEAT AND ENSURE RELIABLE OPERATION OF
THE DEVICE OVER THE FULL INDUSTRIAL TEMPERATURE RANGE. THE SLUG IS EXPOSED ON THE BOTTOM OF
THE PACKAGE AND ELECTRICALLY CONNECTED TO VEE. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT NO PCB SIGNAL
TRACES OR VIAS BE LOCATED UNDER THE PACKAGE THAT COULD COME IN CONTACT WITH THE CONDUCTIVE
SLUG. ATTACHING THE SLUG TO A VEE PLANE WILL REDUCE THE JUNCTION TEMPERATURE OF THE
DEVICE WHICH MAY BE BENEFICIAL IN HIGH TEMPERATURE ENVIRONMENTS.
