description
The TLK1521 is a member of the WizardLink family of multi-gigabit transceivers, intended for use in high-speed
bidirectional point-to-point data transmission systems. The TLK1521 supports an effective serial interface
speed of 500 Mbps to 1.3 Gbps, providing up to 1.17 Gbps of data bandwidth.
The primary application of the TLK1521 is to provide high-speed I/O data channels for point-to-point baseband
data transmission over controlled impedance media of approximately 50 Ω. The transmission media can be
printed-circuit board, copper cables, or fiber-optic cable. The maximum rate and distance of data transfer is
dependent upon the attenuation characteristics of the media and the noise coupling to the environment.
The TLK1521 can also be used to replace parallel data transmission architectures by providing a reduction in
the number of traces, connector pins, and transmit/receive pins. Parallel data loaded into the transmitter is
delivered to the receiver over a serial channel, which can be a coaxial copper cable, a controlled impedance
backplane, or an optical link. The data is then reconstructed into its original parallel format. It offers significant
power and cost savings over current solutions, as well as scalability for higher data rate in the future.
The TLK1521 performs the data parallel-to-serial, serial-to-parallel conversion, and clock extraction functions
for a physical layer interface device. The serial transceiver interface operates at a maximum speed of 1.3 Gbps.
The transmitter latches 18-bit parallel data at a rate based on the supplied reference clock (GTX_CLK). The
18-bit parallel data is internally encoded into 20 bits by framing the 18-bit data with a start and a stop bit. The
resulting 20-bit word is then transmitted differentially at 20 times the reference clock (GTX_CLK) rate. The
receiver section performs the serial-to-parallel conversion on the input data, synchronizing the resulting 20-bit
wide parallel data to the recovered clock (RX_CLK). It then extracts the 18 bits of data from the 20-bit wide data
resulting in 18 bits of parallel data at the receive data pins (RXD0−17). This results in an effective data payload
of 450 Mbps to 1.17 Gbps (18 bits data x GTX_CLK frequency).
The TLK1521 is housed in a high performance, thermally enhanced, 64-pin HTQFP PowerPAD package. Use
of the PowerPAD package does not require any special considerations except to note that the PowerPAD, which
is an exposed die pad on the bottom of the device, is a metallic, thermal, and electrical conductor. It is strongly
recommended that the TLK1521 PowerPAD be soldered to the grounded thermal land on the board, since the
PowerPAD also constitutes a major electrical ground connection for the TLK1521. All ac performance
specifications in this data sheet are measured with the PowerPAD soldered to the test board.
The TLK1521 provides an internal loopback capability for self-test purposes. Serial data from the serializer is
passed directly to the deserializer allowing the protocol device a functional self-check of the physical interface.
The TLK1521 is designed to be hot plug capable. An on-chip power-on reset circuit holds the RX_CLK low and
places the parallel side output signal pins, DOUTTXP and DOUTTXN, into a high-impedance state during power
up.
The TLK1521 uses a 2.5-V supply. The I/O section is 3-V compatible. The TLK1521 is characterized for
operation from −40°C to 85°C.

transmit interface
The transmitter portion registers valid incoming 18-bit wide data (TXD[0:17]) on the rising edge of GTX_CLK.
The data is then framed with a start and a stop bit, serialized and transmitted sequentially over the differential
high-speed I/O channel. The clock multiplier multiplies the reference clock (GTX_CLK) by a factor of 10 times
creating a bit clock. This internal bit clock is fed to the parallel-to-serial shift register, which transmits data on
both the rising and falling edges of the bit clock providing a serial data rate that is 20 times the reference clock.
Data is transmitted LSB (D0) first.
transmit data bus
The transmit bus interface accepts 18-bit wide single-ended TTL parallel data at the TXD[0:17] pins. Data is
valid on the rising edge of GTX_CLK. The GTX_CLK is used as the word clock. The data and clock signals must
be properly aligned as shown in Figure 1. Detailed timing information can be found in the TTL input electrical
characteristics table.

transmission latency
The data transmission latency of the TLK1521 is defined as the delay from the initial 18-bit word load to the serial
transmission of bit 0. The transmit latency is fixed once the link is established. However, due to silicon process
variations and implementation variables such as supply voltage and temperature, the exact delay varies slightly.
Figure 2 illustrates the timing relationship between the transmit data bus, GTX_CLK, and serial transmit pins.

start/stop framing logic
All true serial interfaces require a method of encoding to insure minimum transition density so that the receiving
PLL has a minimal number of transitions in which to stay locked onto the data stream. The signal coding also
provides a mechanism for the receiver to identify the byte boundary for correct deserialization. The TLK1521
wraps a start bit (1) and a stop bit (0) around the 18-bit data payload as shown in Figure 3. This is transparent
to the user, as the TLK1521 internally adds the framing bits to the data such that the user reads and writes actual
18-bit data.

parallel-to-serial
The parallel-to-serial shift register takes in the 20-bit wide data word multiplexed from the framing logic and
converts it to a serial stream. The shift register is clocked on both the rising and falling edge of the internally
generated bit clock, which is 10 times the GTX_CLK input frequency. The LSB (TD0) is transmitted first as
shown in Figure 3.
high-speed data output
The high-speed data output driver consists of a PECL-compatible differential pair that can be optimized for a
particular transmission line impedance and length. The line can be directly coupled or ac coupled. See Figure 11
and Figure 12 for termination details. No external pullup or pulldown resistors are required.
The TLK1521 provides a selectable signal preemphasis option for driving lossy media. When signal
preemphasis is enabled, the first bit of a run length of same-value bits is driven to a larger output swing, which
precompensates for signal inter-symbol interference (ISI) in lossy media, such as copper cables or printed
circuit board traces.
receive interface
The receiver portion of the TLK1521 accepts 20-bit framed differential serial data. The interpolator and clock
recovery circuit locks to the data stream and extracts the bit rate clock. This recovered clock is used to retime
the input data stream. The serial data is then aligned to the 20-bit word boundary by finding the start/stop bits
and the 18-bit data is output on a 18-bit wide parallel bus synchronized to the extracted receive clock.
receive data bus
The receive bus interface drives 18-bit wide single-ended TTL parallel data at the RXD[0:17] pins. Data is valid
on the rising edge of RX_CLK. The RX_CLK is used as the recovered word clock. The data and clock signals
are aligned as shown in Figure 4. Detailed timing information can be found in the TTL output switching
characteristics table.

data reception latency
The serial-to-parallel data receive latency is the time from when the first bit arrives at the receiver until it is output
in the aligned parallel word with RXD0 received as first bit. The receive latency is fixed once the link is
established. However, due to silicon process variations and implementation variables such as supply voltage
and temperature, the exact delay varies slightly. Figure 5 illustrates the timing relationship between the serial
receive pins, the recovered word clock (RX_CLK), and the receive data bus.

serial-to-parallel
Serial data is received on the DINRXP and DINRXN pins. The interpolator and clock recovery circuit locks to
the data stream if the clock to be recovered is within ±100 PPM of the internally generated bit rate clock. The
recovered clock is used to retime the input data stream. The serial data is then clocked into the serial-to-parallel
shift registers.
synchronization mode
The deserializer PLL must synchronize to the serializer in order to receive valid data. Synchronization can be
accomplished in one of two ways.
rapid synchronization
The serializer has the capability to send specific SYNC patterns consisting of nine ones and nine zeros,
switching at the input clock rate. The transmission of SYNC patterns enables the deserializer to lock to the
serializer signal within a deterministic time frame. The transmission of SYNC patterns is selected via the SYNC
input on the serializer. Upon receiving a valid SYNC pulse (wider than 6 clock cycles), 1024 cycles of SYNC
pattern are sent.
When the deserializer detects edge transitions at the serial input, it attempts to lock to the embedded clock
information. The deserializer LOCKB output remains inactive while its clock/data recovery (CDR) locks to the
incoming data or SYNC patterns present on the serial input. When the deserializer locks to the serial data, the
LOCKB output goes active. When LOCKB is active, the deserializer outputs represent incoming serial data. One
approach is to tie the deserializer LOCKB output directly to the SYNC input of the transmitter. This assures that
enough SYNC patterns are sent to achieve deserializer lock.
random lock synchronization
The deserializer can attain lock to a data stream without requiring the serializer to send special SYNC patterns.
This allows the TLK1521 to operate in open-loop applications. Equally important is the deserializer’s ability to
support hot insertion into a running backplane. In the open-loop or hot-insertion case, it is assumed the data
stream is essentially random. Therefore, because lock time varies due to data stream characteristics, the exact
lock time cannot be predicted. The primary constraint on the random lock time is the initial phase relation
between the incoming data and the GTX_CLK when the deserializer powers up.

• DALLAS, TEXAS 75265
SLLS591A− OCTOBER 2003 − REVISED JANUARY 2004
random lock synchronization (continued)
The data contained in the data stream can also affect lock time. If a specific pattern is repetitive, the deserializer
could enter false lock—falsely recognizing the data pattern as the start/stop bits. This is referred to as repetitive
multitransition (RMT). This occurs when more than one low-high transition takes place per clock cycle over
multiple clock cycles. In the worst case, the deserializer could become locked to the data pattern rather than
the clock. Circuitry within the deserializer can detect that the possibility of false lock exists. Upon detection, the
circuitry prevents the LOCKB from becoming active until the potential false-lock pattern changes. Notice that
the RMT pattern only affects the deserializer lock time, and once the deserializer is in lock, the RMT pattern does
not affect the deserializer state as long as the same data boundary happens each cycle. The deserializer does
not go into lock until it finds a unique data boundary that consists of four consecutive start/stop bits at the same
position.
The deserializer stays in lock until it cannot detect the same data boundary (start/stop bits) for four consecutive
cycles. Then the deserializer goes out of lock and hunts for the new data boundary (start/stop bits). In the event
of loss of synchronization, the LOCKB pin output goes inactive and the outputs (including RX_CLK) enter a
high-impedance state. The user’s system should monitor the LOCKB pin in order to detect a loss of
synchronization. Upon detection of loss of lock, sending SYNC patterns for resynchronization is desirable if
reestablishing lock within a specific time is critical. However, the deserializer can lock to random data as
previously noted. LOCKB is held inactive for at least nine cycles after loss of lock is detected.
recommended power-up sequence
When powering up the device, it is recommended to first set the ENABLE pin low. Set the ENABLE pin to high
once sufficient time has passed to allow the power supply to stabilize.
power-down mode
When the ENABLE pin is deasserted low, the TLK1521 goes into a power-down mode. In the power-down
mode, the serial transmit pins (DOUTTXP, DOUTTXN) and the receive data bus pins (RXD[0:17]) go into a
high-impedance state.
reference clock input
The reference clock (GTX_CLK) is an external input clock that synchronizes the transmitter interface. The
reference clock is then multiplied in frequency 10 times to produce the internal serialization bit clock. The internal
serialization bit clock is frequency locked to the reference clock and used to clock out the serial transmit data
on both its rising and falling edge clock providing a serial data rate that is 20 times the reference clock.
operating frequency range
The TLK1521 may operate at a serial data rate between 500 Mbit/s to 1.3 Gbit/s. GTX_CLK must be within ±100
PPM of the desired parallel data rate clock.
testability
The TLK1521 has a comprehensive suite of built-in self-tests. The loopback function provides for at-speed
testing of the transmit/receive portions of the circuitry. The ENABLE pin allows for all circuitry to be disabled so
that an IDDQ test can be performed.
loop-back testing
The transceiver can provide a self-test function by enabling (LOOPEN) the internal loop-back path. Enabling
this pin causes serial transmitted data to be routed internally to the receiver. The parallel data output can be
compared to the parallel input data for functional verification. (The external differential output is held in a
high-impedance state during the loop-back testing.)
power-on reset
Upon application of minimum valid power, the TLK1521 generates a power-on reset. During the power-on reset,
the RXD pins are tri-stated and RX_CLK is held low. The length of the power-on reset cycle is dependent upon
the REFCLK frequency, but is less than 1 ms in duration.

Serial transmit outputs. DOUTTXP and DOUTTXN are differential serial outputs that interface to
copper or an optical I/F module. These terminals transmit NRZ data at a rate of 20 times the GTX_CLK
value. DOUTTXP and DOUTTXN are put in a high-impedance state when LOOPEN is high and are
active when LOOPEN is low. During power-on reset, these pins are high impedance.

Input
(w/pulldown)
Fast synchronization. When asserted high, the transmitter substitutes the 18-bit pattern
111111111000000000, so that when the start/stop bits are framed around the data the receiver can
immediately detect the proper deserialization boundary. This is typically used during initialization of
the serial link.
PREEMPH

Figure 12. High-Speed I/O AC-Coupled Mode
AC-coupling is only recommended if the parallel TX data stream is encoded to achieve a dc-balanced data
stream. Otherwise, the ac-capicitors can induce common-mode voltage drift due to the dc-unbalanced data
stream.
designing with PowerPAD
The TLK1521 is housed in a high-performance, thermally enhanced, 64-pin HTQFP (PAP64) PowerPAD
package. Use of the PowerPAD package does not require any special considerations except to note that the
PowerPAD, which is an exposed die pad on the bottom of the device, is a metallic, thermal, and electrical
conductor. Therefore, if not implementing PowerPAD PCB features, the use of solder masks (or other assembly
techniques) may be required to prevent any inadvertent shorting by the exposed PowerPAD of connection
etches or vias under the package. It is strongly recommended that the PowerPAD be soldered to the
thermal land. The recommended convention, however, is to not run any etches or signal vias under the device,
but to have only a grounded thermal land as explained below. Although the actual size of the exposed die pad
may vary, the minimum size required for the keep out area for the 64-pin PAP PowerPAD package is 8 mm ×
8 mm.
It is recommended that there be a thermal land, which is an area of solder-tinned-copper, underneath the
PowerPAD package. The thermal land varies in size depending on the PowerPAD package being used, the PCB
construction, and the amount of heat that needs to be removed. In addition, the thermal land may or may not
contain numerous thermal vias depending on PCB construction.

SLLS591A− OCTOBER 2003 − REVISED JANUARY 2004
Other requirements for thermal lands and thermal vias are detailed in the TI application note PowerPAD
Thermally Enhanced Package application report, TI (SLMA002), available via the TI Web pages beginning at
URL: http://www.ti.com.
Figure 13. Example of a Thermal Land
For the TLK1521, this thermal land should be grounded to the low-impedance ground plane of the device. This
improves not only thermal performance but also the electrical grounding of the device. It is also recommended
that the device ground pin landing pads be connected directly to the grounded thermal land. The land size
should be as large as possible without shorting device signal pins. The thermal land may be soldered to the
exposed PowerPAD using standard reflow soldering techniques.
While the thermal land may be electrically floated and configured to remove heat to an external heat sink, it is
recommended that the thermal land be connected to the low-impedance ground plane for the device. More
information may be obtained from the TI application note PHY Layout, TI (SLLA020).
