GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The S2065 facilitates high-speed serial transmission
of data in a variety of applications including Gigabit
Ethernet, Fibre Channel, serial backplanes, and pro-
prietary point to point links. The chip provides four
separate transceivers which can be operated indi-
vidually or locked together for an aggregate data ca-
pacity of >4 Gbit/sec in each direction. The S2065
provides dual transmit and receive serial I/O. The
dual transmit and receive serial I/O are useful for
backbone applications in which redundant optical or
electrical links are required.
Each bi-directional channel provides 8B/10B coding/
decoding, parallel to serial and serial to parallel con-
version, clock generation/recovery, and framing. The
on-chip transmit PLL synthesizes the high-speed
clock from a low-speed reference. The on-chip quad
receive PLL is used for clock recovery and data re-
timing on the four independent data inputs. The
transmitter and receiver each support differential
PECL-compatible I/O for copper or fiber optic com-
ponent interfaces with excellent signal integrity. Re-
dundant transmit and receive serial I/O are provided
to support applications with redundant switch fabrics
or line interfaces. Local loopback mode allows for
system diagnostics. The chip requires a 3.3V power
supply and dissipates approximately 2.7 watts.
Figure 1 shows the use of the S2065 and S2066 in a
Gigabit Ethernet application. Figure 2 shows the use of
a S2065 in a serial backplane application. Figure 3
summarizes the input and output signals on the S2065.
Figures 4 and 5 show the transmit and receive block
diagrams, respectively.
