The DS100BR111A is an extremely low power, high performance repeater designed to support
serial links with data rates up to 10.3 Gbps. The DS100BR111A pinout is configured as one
bidirectional lane (one transmit, one receive channel). The DS100BR111A inputs feature a powerful
4-stage continuous time linear equalizer (CTLE) to provide a boost of up to +36 dB at 5 GHz and
open an input eye that is completely closed due to inter-symbol interference (ISI) induced by the
interconnect mediums such as board traces or twin-axial copper cables. The transmitter features a
programmable output de-emphasis driver with up to 12 dB and can drive output voltage levels from
600 mVp-p to 1200 mVp-p.
The programmable settings can be applied via pin control, SMBus protocol, or an external
EEPROM. In the EEPROM mode, the configuration information is automatically loaded on power up,
thereby eliminating the need for an external microprocessor or software driver. The DS100BR111A
consumes just 65 mW/channel (typical), and allows the option to turn off unused channels. This
ultra low power consumption eliminates the need for external heat sinks and simplifies thermal
management in active cable applications.
