2.488/2.666GBPS OC-48/STM-16 SONET/SDH TRANSCEIVER
2.0 RECEIVE SECTION
The receive section of XRT91L80 includes the differential limiting amplifier inputs RXIP/N, followed by the
clock and data recovery unit (CDR) and receive serial-to-parallel converter. The receiver accepts the high
speed Non-Return to Zero (NRZ) serial data at 2.488/2.666 Gbps through the differential limiting amplifier input
interfaces RXIP/N. The clock and data recovery unit recovers the high-speed receive clock from the incoming
scrambled NRZ data stream. The recovered serial data is converted into 4-bit-wide 622.08/666 Mbps parallel
data and presented to the RXD[3:0]P/N LVDS parallel interface. A divide-by-4 version of the high-speed
recovered clock RXCLKP/N, is used to synchronize the transfer of the 4-bit RXD[3:0]P/N data with the receive
portion of the upstream device. Upon initialization or loss of signal or loss of lock the 155.52/77.76 MHz (166/
83.3 MHz) external reference clock is used to start-up the clock recovery phase-locked loop for proper
operation. A special loop-back feature can be configured when RLOOPP is used in conjunction with de-jittered
loop-time mode that allows the re-transmitted data to comply with ITU and Bellcore jitter generation
specifications.
2.1 Receive Serial Input
The receive serial inputs are applied to RXIP/N. The receive serial inputs should be AC coupled to an optical
module or an electrical interface. A simplified block diagram is shown in Figure 4.

NOTE: Some optical modules integrate AC coupled capacitors within the module. If so, the external AC coupled capacitors
are not necessary and can be excluded.
