If MCLK is not supplied, this pin should be grounded. 2 TCLK DI Transmit Clock. Transmit clock input. TPOS and TNEG are sampled on the falling edge of TCLK. If TCLK is not supplied, the transmitter remains powered down. 3 TPOS DI Transmit Positive Data. Input for positive pulse to be transmitted on the twisted-pair cable. 4 TNEG DI Transmit Negative Data. Input for negative pulse to be transmitted on the twisted-pair cable. 1. Entries in I/O column are: DI = Digital Input; DO = Digital Output; AI = Analog Input; AO = Analog Output; S = Supply. 6 Datasheet Low-Power T1/E1 Short-Haul Transceiver with Receive JA — LXT304A Table 1. Pin # Pin Descriptions (Continued) Sym I/O1 Description Mode Select. Setting MODE to High puts the LXT304A in the Host Mode. In the Host Mode, the serial interface is used to control the LXT304A and determine its status. 5 MODE DI Setting MODE to Low puts the LXT304A in the Hardware mode. In the Hardware mode, the serial interface is disabled and hard-wired pins are used to control configuration and report status. 6 RNEG DO 7 RPOS DO Receive Negative Data; Receive Positive Data. Received digital outputs. A signal on RNEG corresponds to detection of a negative pulse on RTIP and RRING. A signal on RPOS corresponds to detection of a positive pulse on RTIP and RRING. RNEG and RPOS outputs are Non-Return-to-Zero (NRZ). Both outputs are stable and valid on the rising edge of RCLK. In the Host mode, CLKE determines the clock edge at which these outputs are stable and valid. In the Hardware mode both outputs are stable and valid on the rising edge of RCLK. 8 RCLK DO Recovered Clock. This is the clock recovered from the signal received at RTIP and RRING. 9 XTALIN AI 10 XTALOUT AO Crystal Input; Crystal Output. An external crystal operating at four times the bit rate (6.176 MHz for DSX-1, 8.192 MHz for E1 applications with an 18.7 pF load) is required to enable the jitter attenuation function of the LXT304A. These pins may also be used to disable the jitter attenuator by connecting the XTALIN pin to the positive supply through a resistor, and tying the XTALOUT pin to ground. 11 DPM DO Driver Performance Monitor. DPM goes High when the transmit monitor loop (MTIP and MRING) does not detect a signal for 63 ±2 clock periods. DPM remains Low until a signal is detected. Loss of Signal. LOS goes High when 175 consecutive spaces have been detected at RTIP and RRING. 12 LOS DO 13 TTIP AO 16 TRING AO 14 TGND S Transmit Ground. Ground return for the transmit drivers power supply TV+. 15 TV+ S Transmit Power Supply. +5 VDC power supply input for the transmit drivers. TV+ must not vary from RV+ by more than ±0.3 V. 17 MTIP AI 18 MRING AI 19 RTIP AI 20 RRING AI 21 RV+ S Receive Power Supply. +5 VDC power supply for all circuits except the transmit drivers. (Transmit drivers are supplied by TV+.) 22 RGND S Receive Ground. Ground return for power supply RV+. INT DO Interrupt (Host mode). This LXT304A Host mode output goes Low to flag the host processor when LOS or DPM go active. INT is an open-drain output and should be tied to power supply RV+ through a resistor. INT is reset by clearing the respective register bit (LOS and/or DPM.) EC1 DI Equalizer Control 1 (Hardware mode). The signal applied at this pin (in LXT304A Hardware mode) is used in conjunction with EC2 and EC3 inputs to determine shape and amplitude for AMI transmit pulses. LOS returns Low when the received signal reaches 12.5% ones density, based on 4 ones in any 32-bit period with no more than 15 consecutive zeros. Transmit Tip; Transmit Ring. Differential Driver Outputs. These low impedance outputs achieve maximum power savings through a 1:1.15 transformer (T1), or a 1:1 (75 Ω) or 1:1.26 (120 Ω) transformer (E1) without additional components. To provide higher return loss, resistors may be used in series with a transformer as specified in “Application Information” on page 17. Monitor Tip; Monitor Ring. These pins are used to monitor the tip and ring transmit outputs. The transceiver can be connected to monitor its own output, or to the output of another LXT304A on the board. To prevent false interrupts in the Host mode, if the monitor is not used, apply a clock signal to one of the monitor pins and tie the other monitor pin to the clock’s approximate mid-level voltage. The monitor clock can range from 100 kHz to the TCLK frequency. Receive Tip; Receive Ring. The AMI signal received from the line is applied at these pins. A center-tapped, center-grounded, 2:1 step-up transformer is required on these pins. Data and clock from the signal applied at these pins are recovered and output on the RPOS, RNEG and RCLK pins. 23 1.

Datasheet 7 LXT304A — Low-Power T1/E1 Short-Haul Transceiver with Receive JA Table 1. Pin # Pin Descriptions (Continued) Sym I/O1 SDI DI Serial Data In (Host mode). The serial data input stream is applied to this pin when the LXT304A operates in the Host mode. SDI is sampled on the rising edge of SCLK. EC2 DI Equalizer Control 2 (Hardware mode). The signal applied at this pin (in LXT304A Hardware mode) is used in conjunction with EC1 and EC3 inputs to determine shape and amplitude for AMI transmit pulses. SDO DO Serial Data Out (Host mode). The serial data from the on-chip register is output on this pin in LXT304A Host mode. If CLKE is High, SDO is valid on the rising edge of SCLK. If CLKE is Low, SDO is valid on the falling edge of SCLK. This pin goes to a high-impedance state when the serial port is being written to and when CS is High. EC3 DI Equalizer Control 3 (Hardware mode). The signal applied at this pin (in LXT304A Hardware mode) is used in conjunction with EC1 and EC2 inputs to determine shape and amplitude for AMI transmit pulses. CS DI Chip Select (Host mode). This input is used to access the serial interface in the LXT304A Host mode. For each read or write operation, CS must transition from High to Low, and remain Low. RLOOP DI Remote Loopback (Hardware mode). This input controls loopback functions in the LXT304A Hardware mode. Setting RLOOP High enables the Remote Loopback mode. Setting both RLOOP and LLOOP High causes a Reset. SCLK DI Serial Clock (Host mode). This clock is used in the LXT304A Host mode to write data to or read data from the serial interface registers. LLOOP DI Local Loopback (Hardware mode). This input controls loopback functions in the LXT304A Hardware mode. Setting LLOOP High enables the Local Loopback mode. Setting both LLOOP and RLOOP High causes a Reset. CLKE DI Clock Edge (Host mode). In Host mode, setting CLKE High causes RPOS and RNEG to be valid on the falling edge of RCLK, and SDO to be valid on the rising edge of SCLK. When CLKE is Low, RPOS and RNEG are valid on the rising edge of RCLK, and SDO is valid on the falling edge of SCLK. TAOS DI Transmit All Ones (Hardware mode). When set High, TAOS causes the LXT304A (in Hardware mode) to transmit a continuous stream of marks at the TCLK frequency. Activating TAOS causes TPOS and TNEG inputs to be ignored. TAOS is inhibited during Remote Loopback. 24 25 Description 26 27 28 1.

It allows full-duplex transmission of digital data over existing cable-pair installations. The LXT304A transceiver interfaces with two cable-pairs; one for transmit and one for receive. 2.1 Power Requirements The LXT304A is a low-power CMOS device. Separate power pins (RV+ and TV+) are provided for the receiver and transmitter circuits. The LXT304A typically operates from a single +5 V power supply that is connected externally to the RV+ and TV+ pins and decoupled to the respective ground pins (RGND and TGND). Refer to “Application Information” on page 17 for typical decoupling circuitry. Note that when separate power supplies are used, RV+ and TV+ must be within ±0.3 V of each other. Isolation between the transmit and receive circuits is provided internally. In normal, local loopback (LLOOP), and transmit all ones (TAOS) operating modes, the transmitter will automatically power down when TCLK is not provided. 2.2 Reset Operation Upon power up, the transceiver is held static until the power supply reaches approximately 3 V. Upon crossing this threshold, the device begins a 32 ms reset cycle to calibrate the transmit and receive delay lines and lock the Phase Lock Loop to the receive line. A reference clock is required to calibrate the delay lines. The transmitter reference is provided by TCLK. MCLK provides the receiver reference. If the crystal oscillator is grounded, MCLK is used as the receiver reference clock. In Host mode, reset is commanded by simultaneously writing RLOOP and LLOOP to the register. The reset is initiated on the trailing edge of the reset request. In Hardware mode, reset is initiated by holding the RLOOP and LLOOP pins High simultaneously for a minimum of 200 ns. In either mode, reset clears all registers to 0 and then the calibration process begins. 2.3 Receiver The LXT304A receives the signal input from one cable-pair line tied to each side of a centergrounded transformer. 50% Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI) code is received at RTIP and RRING. Recovered data is output at RPOS and RNEG. The recovered clock is output at RCLK. Refer to Test Specifications for LXT304A receiver timing. The signal received at RTIP and RRING is processed by the peak detector and data slicers. The peak detector samples the inputs and determines the maximum value of the received signal. A percentage of the peak value is provided to the data slicers as a threshold level to ensure optimum signal-to-noise ratio. For DSX-1 applications (set by Equalizer Control inputs EC3 - EC1 ≠ 00x), Datasheet 9 LXT304A — Low-Power T1/E1 Short-Haul Transceiver with Receive JA the threshold is set to 70% of the peak value. This threshold is maintained above 65% for up to 15 successive zeros over the range of specified operating conditions. For E1 applications (EC inputs = 000 or 001) the threshold is 50% of the peak value. The receiver is capable of accurately recovering signals with up to -13.6 dB of attenuation (from 2.4 V), corresponding to a received signal level of approximately 500 mV. Maximum line length is 1500 feet of ABAM cable (approximately 6 dB of attenuation). Regardless of received signal level, the peak detectors are held above a minimum level of 0.3 V to provide immunity from impulse noise. After processing through the data slicers, the received signal is routed to the data and clock recovery sections, and to the receive monitor. The data and clock recovery circuits are highly tolerant with an input jitter tolerance significantly better than required by Pub 62411 and TBR12/ 13. Refer to Test Specifications for additional information. The receiver monitor loads a digital counter at the RCLK frequency. The counter is incremented each time a zero is received, and reset to zero each time a one (mark) is received. Upon receipt of 175 consecutive zeros, the LOS pin goes high, and a smooth transition replaces the RCLK output with the MCLK. Note that if MCLK is not supplied, the RCLK output will be replaced with the centered crystal clock. The LOS pin is reset when the received signal reaches 12.5% ones density (4 marks in 32 bits) with no more than 15 consecutive zeros. Recovered clock signals are supplied to the Jitter Attenuator and the data latch. The recovered data is passed to the Elastic Store where it is buffered and synchronized with the dejittered recovered clock (RCLK). 2.3.1 Jitter Attenuation Jitter attenuation of the LXT304A clock and data outputs is provided by a Jitter Attenuation Loop (JAL) and an Elastic Store (ES). An external crystal oscillating at 4 times the bit rate provides clock stabilization. Refer to Table 5 for crystal specifications. See the Short Haul FAQ document (on our web site) to find crystals that achieve CTR12/13 compliance. The ES is a 32 x 2-bit register. Recovered data is clocked into the ES using the recovered clock signal, and clocked out of the ES by the dejittered clock from the JAL. When the bit count in the ES is within two bits of overflowing or underflowing, the ES adjusts the output clock by 1/8 of a bit period. The ES produces an average delay of 16 bits in the receive path. 2.4 Transmitter Data received for transmission onto the line is clocked serially into the device at TPOS and TNEG. Input synchronization is supplied by the transmit clock (TCLK). If TCLK is not supplied, the transmitter remains powered down, except during remote loopback mode. Refer to Test Specifications for master clock and transmit clock timing characteristics. The transmitted pulse shape is determined by Equalizer Control signals EC1 through EC3 as shown in Table 2. Equalizer Control signals may be hardwired, in the Hardware mode, or input as part of the serial data stream (SDI) in the Host mode. Shaped pulses are applied to the AMI line driver for transmission onto the cable-pair at TTIP and TRING. The line driver provides a constant low output impedance of 3 Ω (typical). This well controlled output impedance provides excellent 10 Datasheet Low-Power T1/E1 Short-Haul Transceiver with Receive JA — LXT304A return loss (> 18 dB) when used with external 9.1 Ω precision resistors (± 1%) in series with a transmit transformer (see Table 6 for transformer specifications). The series resistors also provide increased surge protection and reduce short circuit current flow. Pulses can be shaped for either 1.544 or 2.048 Mbps applications. 1.544 Mbps pulses (for DSX-1 applications) can be programmed to match line lengths from 0 to 655 feet of ABAM cable. The LXT304A also matches FCC and ECSA specifications for CSU applications. A 1:1.15 transmit transformer is used for 1.544 Mbps systems. For higher return loss in DSX-1 applications, use 9.1 Ω resistors in series with a 1:2.3 transmit transformer. 2.048 Mbps pulses can drive coaxial or shielded twisted-pair lines. For E1 systems, a 1:2 transmit transformer and series resistors are recommended. This design meets or exceeds all ITU and ETSI specifications for transmit and receive return loss. A 1:1 or 1:1.26 transformer may be used (without the series resistors) with reduced return loss. 2.4.1 Driver Performance Monitor The transceiver incorporates a Driver Performance Monitor (DPM). MTIP and MRING are the DPM inputs and are connected in parallel with TTIP and TRING at the output transformer. The DPM output goes High upon detection of 63 consecutive zeros at MTIP and MRING. DPM is reset when a one is detected on the transmit line, or when a reset command is received. 2.4.2 Line Code The LXT304A transmits data as a 50% AMI line code as shown in Figure 3. The output driver maintains a constant low output impedance regardless of whether it is driving marks or spaces. Table 2.

Datasheet 11 LXT304A — Low-Power T1/E1 Short-Haul Transceiver with Receive JA Figure 3. 50% AMI Coding Bit Cell TTIP 1 0 1 TRING 2.5 Operating Modes The LXT304A can be controlled through hard-wired pins (Hardware mode) or by a microprocessor through a serial interface (Host mode). The mode of operation is set by the MODE pin. The LXT304A can also be commanded to operate in one of several diagnostic modes. 2.5.1 Host Mode Operation Setting the MODE pin High allows a host microprocessor to access and control the LXT304A through the serial interface. The serial interface uses a 16-bit word consisting of an 8-bit Command/Address byte and an 8-bit Data byte. Figure 4 shows the serial interface data structure and relative timing. The Host mode provides a latched Interrupt output (INT) which is triggered by a change in the Loss of Signal (LOS) and/or the Driver Performance Monitor (DPM) bits. The Interrupt is cleared when the interrupt condition no longer exists, and the host processor enables the respective bit in the serial input data byte. Host mode also allows control of the serial data and receive data output timing. The Clock Edge (CLKE) signal determines when the RPOS, RNEG, SDO and SDI outputs are valid, relative to the Serial Clock (SCLK) or RCLK edge (see Table 3). Table 3.

TAOS D7(MSB) The LXT304A serial port is addressed by setting bit A4 in the Address/Command byte, corresponding to address 16. The LXT304A contains a single output data register so no complex chip addressing scheme is required. The register is accessed by causing the Chip Select (CS) input to transition from High to Low. Bit 1 of the Serial Address/Command byte provides read/write control when the chip is accessed. A logic 1 indicates a read operation, and a logic 0 indicates a write operation. Table 4 lists serial data output bit combinations for each status. Serial data I/O timing characteristics are shown in the Test Specifications section. . Table 4.

With the exception of the Interrupt and CLKE functions, Hardware mode provides all the functions provided in the Host mode. In the Hardware mode RPOS and RNEG outputs are valid on the rising edge of RCLK. To operate in Hardware mode, the MODE pin is set Low. Equalizer Control signals (EC1 through EC3) are input on the INT, SDI and SDO pins respectively. Diagnostic control for Remote Loopback (RLOOP), Local Loopback (LLOOP), and Transmit All Ones (TAOS) modes is provided through the individual pins used to control serial interface timing in the Host mode. 2.5.3 Diagnostic Mode Operation 2.5.3.1 Transmit All Ones In Transmit All Ones (TAOS) mode, the TPOS and TNEG inputs to the transceiver are ignored. As shown in Figure 5, the transceiver sends a continuous stream of ones when the TAOS mode is activated. As shown in Figure 6, TAOS can be commanded simultaneously with Local Loopback.

As shown in Figure 7, the transmit data and clock inputs (TPOS, TNEG and TCLK) are looped back to the receive data and clock outputs (RPOS, RNEG and RCLK) through the Rx jitter attenuator. The transmitter circuits are unaffected by the LLOOP command. The TPOS and TNEG inputs will be transmitted normally. Figure 7.

The LXT304A is shown in the Host mode. A T1/ ESF framer supplies the digital interface to the LXT304A in Host mode. Both devices are controlled through the serial interface. An LXP600A Clock Adapter (CLAD) provides the 2.048 MHz system backplane clock, locked to the recovered 1.544 MHz clock signal. The power supply inputs are tied to a common bus with appropriate decoupling capacitors installed (68 µF on the transmit side, 1.0 µF and 0.1 µF on the receive side). Figure 9.

When high return loss is not a critical factor, a 1:1 or 1:1.26 transformer without in-line resistors provides maximum power savings. The LXT304A is shown in Hardware mode with a typical E1/CRC4 Framer. The hardwired control lines for TAOS, LLOOP and RLOOP are individually controllable, and the LLOOP and RLOOP lines are also tied to a single control for the Reset function. This configuration is illustrated with a crystal in place to enable the LXT304A Jitter Attenuation Loop, and a single power supply bus. 3.1.2 Line Protection On the receive side, the 1 kΩ series resistors protect the receiver against current surges coupled into the device. Due to the high receiver input impedance (typically 40 kΩ), the resistors do not affect the receiver sensitivity. On the transmit side, the Schottky diodes (D1-D4) protect the output driver. While not mandatory for normal operation, these protection elements are strongly recommended to improve the design’s robustness. 18 Datasheet Low-Power T1/E1 Short-Haul Transceiver with Receive JA — LXT304A Figure 10.

D1 - D4 = International Rectifier: 11DQ04 or 10BQ060; Motorola: MBR0540T1 +5V 3.1.3 D4 Channel Bank Applications Existing D4 Channel Bank architectures frequently employ a plug-in card for T1 pulse generation (6.0 V peak); and a separate card for pulse shaping and Line Build-Out (LBO). The LXT304A integrates the functions of both cards on a single chip producing a DSX-1 compatible, 6.0 V peak output pulse with a standard transformer. In new designs, the LXT304A can replace two cards with one. However, the LXT304A is also compatible with existing dual-card architectures. With an appropriate output transformer, the LXT304A can produce full 6.0 V peak amplitude pulses suitable for D4 Channel Bank applications that use separate pulse shaping/LBO cards. To achieve the 6.0 V peak output, the FCC Part 68-010 Equalizer Code setting is used (EC = 010). With the standard 1:1.15 transformer, this equalization code produces a 3.0 V peak pulse. However, doubling the transformer turns ratio to 1:2.3 produces the desired 6.0 V peak pulse. Datasheet 19 LXT304A — Low-Power T1/E1 Short-Haul Transceiver with Receive JA Table 6.
