S3029 - SONET/SDH/ATM 155 MBIT/S QUAD TRANSCEIVER

Applied Micro Circuits Corp 2008/04/23 09:19

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
 The function of the S3029 clock synthesis and recovery unit is to derive high speed timing signals for SONET/SDH-based equipment.
The S3029 is implemented using AMCC’s proven Phase Locked Loop (PLL) technology.
The S3029 receives four STS-3/STM-1 scrambled NRZ signals and recovers the clock from the data and generates a 155 MHz transmit clock.
The chip outputs a differential PECL bit clock and retimed data.
Figure 1 shows a typical network application.
The S3029 utilizes five on-chip PLLs which consist of a phase detector, a loop filter, and a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO).
The phase detector compares the phase relationship between the VCO output and the serial data input.
A loop filter converts the phase detector output into a smooth DC voltage, and the DC voltage is input to the VCO whose frequency is varied by this voltage.
A block diagram is shown in Figure 2.
There is a single clock multiplier PLL which generates a 155 MHz transmit clock from a 19.44 or 51.84 MHz input.

FEATURES
* Complies with ANSI, Bellcore, and ITU-T specifications for jitter tolerance, jitter generation
* Five on-chip high frequency PLLs with internal loop filters for clock recovery
* Supports clock recovery for STS-3/STM-1 (155.52 Mbit/s) NRZ data
* Clock Multiplier PLL for transmit clock generation
* 19.44 or 51.84 MHz reference frequency
* Lock detect—monitors run length and frequency
* Low-jitter differential interface
* 3.3V supply
* Available in a 64-pin TQFP package
* Compatible with IgT WAC-413 ATM Quad- UNI processor
