The MAX3815 TMDS equalizer accepts differential CML
input data at rates of 250Mbps up to 1.65Gbps (individ-
ual channel data rate). It automatically adjusts to atten-
uation levels of up to 40dB at 825MHz due to
skin-effect losses in copper cable. It consists of four
CML input buffers, a loss-of-clock signal detector, three
independent adaptive equalizers, four limiting ampli-
fiers, and four output buffers (Figure 1).
The input buffers and the output drivers are implement-
ed using current-mode logic (CML) (see Figures 3 and
4). The output drivers are open-collector and can be
turned off with the OUTON pin, or can be set to output
a one-half amplitude signal (500mV
using the OUTLEVEL pin. For details on interfacing with
CML, refer to Maxim Application Note HFAN-01.0:

The loss-of-clock signal detector indicates a loss-of-
clock signal at the CLKLOS pin.

The three data channels each contain an independent
adaptive equalizer. Each channel analyzes the incom-
ing signal and determines the amount of equalization to
apply.
The limiting amplifier amplifies the signal from the
adaptive equalizer and truncates the top and bottom of
the waveform to provide a clean high- and low-level
signal to the output drivers.
Typical shielded twisted pair (STP) and unshielded
twisted pair (UTP) cables exhibit skin-effect losses,
which attenuate the high-frequency spectrum of a
TMDS signal, eventually causing data errors or even
closing the signal eye altogether given a long enough
cable. The MAX3815 recovers the data and opens the
signal eye through compensating equalization.
The basic TMDS interface is composed of four differen-
tial serial links: three links carry serial data up to
1.65Gbps each, and the fourth is a one-tenth-rate
(0.1x) clock that operates up to 165MHz. TMDS, as with
