The MAX3981 quad equalizer provides compensation
for transmission medium losses for four “lanes” of digi-
tal NRZ data at a data rate of 3.125Gbps in one
package. It is tailor-made for 10Gigabit Ethernet appli-
cations that require attenuation of noise and jitter that
occur in communicating with chassis-to-chassis inter-
connect. In support of IEEE-802.3ae for the XAUI inter-
face, the MAX3981 adaptively allows XAUI lanes to
reach 10m (33ft) with inexpensive twin-axial cable for
extended backplane applications.
The equalizer has 100Ω differential CML data inputs
and outputs.
The MAX3981 is available in a 44-pin exposed-pad
QFN package. The MAX3981 consumes only 700mW at
3.3V or 175mW per channel.
21-2178; Rev 1; 5/03
Pin Configuration appears at end of data sheet.
