Technical Data
Description
The HDMP-1636A/46A/T1636A
transceiver is a single integrated
circuit packaged in a plastic QFP
package. It provides a low-cost,
low-power physical layer solution
for 1250 MBd Gigabit Ethernet,
1062.5 MBd Fibre Channel, and
proprietary link interfaces. It
provides complete Serialize/
Deserialize (SerDes) for copper
transmission, incorporating the
Gigabit Ethernet/Fibre Channel
transmit and receive functions
into a single device.
This chip is used to build a high
speed interface (as shown in
Figure 1) while minimizing board
space, power and cost. It is
compatible with the IEEE 802.3z
specification.
The transmitter section accepts
10-bit wide parallel TTL data and
serializes this data into a high
speed serial data stream. The
parallel data is expected to be
“8B/10B” encoded data, or equiv-
alent. This parallel data is latched
into the input register of the
transmitter section on the rising
edge of the reference clock (used
as the transmit byte clock). A
1062.5 MHz reference clock is
used in Fibre Channel operation,
whereas a 125 MHz reference
clock is used in Gigabit Ethernet
operation.
The transmitter section’s PLL
locks to the user supplied
reference byte clock. This clock
is then multiplied by 10 to gener-
ate the high speed serial clock
used to generate the high speed
output. The high speed outputs
are capable of interfacing directly
to copper cables for electrical
transmission or to a separate
fiber optic module for optical
transmission.
The receiver section accepts a
serial electrical data stream at
1062.5 MBd or 1250 MBd and
recovers the original 10-bit wide
parallel data. The receiver PLL
locks onto the incoming serial
signal and recovers the high
speed serial clock and data. The
serial data is converted back into
10-bit parallel data, recognizing
the 8B/10B comma character to
establish byte alignment.
CAUTION: As with all semiconductor ICs, it is advised that normal static precautions be taken in handling and assembly
of this component to prevent damage and/or degradation which may be induced by electrostatic discharge (ESD).

The recovered parallel data is
presented to the user at TTL
compatible outputs. The receiver
section also recovers two receiver
byte clocks which are 180
degrees out of phase with each
other. For Gigabit Ethernet,
these clocks are 62.5 MHz,
whereas for Fibre Channel, they
are 53.125 MHz. The parallel
data is properly aligned with the
rising edge of alternating clocks.
For test purposes, the transceiver
provides for on-chip local loop-
back functionality, controlled
through an external input pin.
Additionally, the byte
synchronization feature may be
disabled. This may be useful in
proprietary applications which
use alternative methods to align
the parallel data.
HDMP-1636A/1646A/
T1636A Block Diagram
The HDMP-1636A/1646A/
T1636A was designed to transmit
and receive 10-bit wide parallel
data over a single high-speed
line. The parallel data applied to
the transmitter is expected to be
8B/10B encoded. In order to
accomplish this task, the HDMP-
1636A/1646A/T1636A
incorporates the following:
• TTL Parallel I/Os
• High Speed Phase Locked
Loops
• Parallel to Serial Converter
• High Speed Serial Clock and
Data Recovery Circuitry
• Comma Character Recognition
Circuitry as per 8B/10B
Specifications
• Byte Alignment Circuitry
• Serial to Parallel Converter
INPUT LATCH
The transmitter accepts 10-bit
wide TTL parallel data at inputs
TX[0..9]. The user-provided
reference clock signal, REFCLK,
is also used as the transmit byte
clock. The TX[0..9] and REFCLK
signals must be properly aligned,
as shown in Figure 3.
TX PLL/CLOCK GENERATOR
The transmitter Phase Locked
Loop and Clock Generator (TX
PLL/CLOCK GENERATOR) block
is responsible for generating all
internal clocks needed by the
transmitter section to perform its
functions. These clocks are based
on the supplied reference byte
clock (REFCLK). REFCLK is
used as both the frequency
reference clock for the PLL and
the transmit byte clock for the
incoming data latches. It is
expected to be properly aligned
to the incoming parallel data (see
Figure 3). This clock is then
multiplied by 10 to generate the
high speed clock necessary for
clocking the high speed serial
outputs.
FRAME MUX
The FRAME MUX accepts the 10-
bit wide parallel data from the
INPUT LATCH. Using internally
generated high speed clocks, this
parallel data is multiplexed into
the high speed serial data stream.
The data bits are transmitted
sequentially, from the least
significant bit (TX[0]) to the
most significant bit (TX[9]).
OUTPUT SELECT
The OUTPUT SELECT block
provides for an optional internal
loopback of the high speed serial
signal for testing purposes.
In normal operation, LOOPEN is
set low and the serial data stream
is placed at +/- DOUT. When
wrap-mode is activated by setting
LOOPEN high, the +/- DOUT
pins are held static at logic 1 and
the serial output signal is
internally wrapped to the INPUT
SELECT box of the receiver
section.
INPUT SELECT
The INPUT SELECT block
determines whether the signal at
+/- DIN or the internal loop-back
serial signal is used. In normal
operation, LOOPEN is set low
and the serial data is accepted at
+/- DIN. When LOOPEN is set
high, the high speed serial signal
is internally looped-back from the
transmitter section to the
receiver section. This feature
allows for loop back testing
exclusive of the transmission
medium.
RX PLL/CLOCK RECOVERY
The RX PLL/CLOCK RECOVERY
block is responsible for frequency
and phase locking onto the
incoming serial data stream and
recovering the bit and byte
clocks. An automatic locking
feature allows the Rx PLL to lock
onto the input data stream
without external PLL training
controls. It does this by
continually frequency locking
onto the reference clock, and
then phase locking onto the input
data stream. An internal signal
detection circuit monitors the
presence of the input, and
invokes the phase detection as
the data stream appears. Once bit
locked, the receiver generates the
high speed sampling clock for the
input sampler, and recovers the

by the rising edge of the transmit byte clock, REFCLK) and the transmission of the first serial bit of that parallel word (defined by
the rising edge of the first bit transmitted).
two receiver byte clocks
(RBC1/RBC0). These clocks are
180 degrees out of phase with
each other, and are alternately
used to clock out the 10-bit
parallel output data.
INPUT SAMPLER
The INPUT SAMPLER is respon-
sible for converting the serial
input signal into a retimed serial
bit stream. In order to accom-
plish this, it uses the high speed
serial clock recovered from the
RX PLL/CLOCK RECOVERY
block. This serial bit stream is
sent to the FRAME DEMUX and
BYTE SYNC block.
FRAME DEMUX AND BYTE
SYNC
The FRAME DEMUX AND BYTE
SYNC block is responsible for
restoring the 10-bit parallel data
from the high speed serial bit
stream. This block is also
responsible for recognizing the
comma character (or a K28.5
character) of positive disparity
(0011111xxx). When recognized,
the FRAME DEMUX AND BYTE
SYNC block works with the RX
PLL/CLOCK RECOVERY block to
properly align the receive byte
clocks to the parallel data. When
a comma character is detected
and realignment of the receiver
byte clocks (RBC1/RBC0) is
necessary, these clocks are
stretched, not slivered, to the
next possible correct alignment
position. These clocks will be
fully aligned by the start of the
second 2-byte ordered set. The
second comma character
received shall be aligned with the
rising edge of RBC1. As per the
8B/10B encoding scheme,
comma characters must not be
transmitted in consecutive bytes
to allow the receiver byte clocks
to maintain their proper
recovered frequencies.
OUTPUT DRIVERS
The OUTPUT DRIVERS present
the 10-bit parallel recovered data
byte properly aligned to the
receive byte clocks (RBC1/RBC0),
as shown in Figure 5. These
output data buffers provide TTL
compatible signals.
SIGNAL DETECT
The SIGNAL DETECT block
examines the differential
amplitude of the inputs ±DIN.
When this input signal is too
small, it outputs a logic 0 at
SIG_DET (refer to SIG_DET pin
definition for detection
thresholds), and at the same
time, forces the parallel output
RX[0]..RX[9] to all logic one
(1111111111). The main
purpose of this circuit is to
prevent the generation of random
data when the serial input lines
are disconnected. When the
signal at ±DIN is of a valid
amplitude, SIG_DET is set to
logic 1, and the output of the
INPUT SELECT block is passed
through.

Name Pin Type Signal
BYTSYNC 47 O-TTL Byte Sync Output: An active high output. Used to indicate detection of
a comma character (0011111XXX). It is only active when
ENBYTSYNC is enabled.
-DIN 52 HS_IN Serial Data Inputs: High-speed inputs. Serial data is accepted from the
+DIN 54 ±DIN inputs when LOOPEN is low.
-DOUT 61 HS_OUT Serial Data Outputs: High-speed outputs. These lines are active when
+DOUT 62 LOOPEN is set low. When LOOPEN is set high, these outputs are held
static at logic 1.
ENBYTSYNC 24 I-TTL Enable Byte Sync Input: When high, turns on the internal byte sync
function to allow clock synchronization to a comma character,
(0011111XXX). When the line is low, the function is disabled and will
not reset registers and clocks, or strobe the BYTSYNC line.
GND 21 S Logic Ground: Normally 0 volts. This ground is used for internal PECL
25 logic. It should be isolated from the noisy TTL ground as well as possible.
58
*GND 1 This pin is bonded to an isolated pad and has no functionality. However,
14 it is recommended that this pin be connected to GND in order to conform
56 with the X3T11 “10-bit specification,” and to help dissipate heat.
GND_RXA 51 S Analog Ground: Normally 0 volts. Used to provide a clean ground
plane for the receiver PLL and high-speed analog cells.
GND_RXTTL 32 S TTL Receiver Ground: Normally 0 volts. Used for the TTL output cells
33 of the receiver section.
46
GND_TXA 15 S Analog Ground: Normally 0 volts. Used to provide a clean ground plane
for the PLL and high-speed analog cells.
GND_TXHS 64 S Ground: Normally 0 volts.
LOOPEN 19 I-TTL Loopback Enable Input: When set high, the high-speed serial signal is
internally wrapped from the transmitter’s serial loopback outputs back
to the receiver’s loopback inputs. Also, when in loopback mode, the
±DOUT outputs are held static at logic 1. When set low, ±DOUT outputs
and ±DIN inputs are active.
N/C 27 This pin is connected to an isolated pad and has no functionality. It can
be left open, however, TTL levels can also be applied to this pin.
RBC1 30 O-TTL Receiver Byte Clocks: The receiver section recovers two 53.125 MHz
RBC0 31 (Fibre Channel)/62.5 MHz (Gigabit Ethernet) receive byte clocks. These
two clocks are 180 degrees out of phase. The receiver parallel data
outputs are alternately clocked on the rising edge of these clocks.
The rising edge of RBC1 aligns with the output of the comma character
(for byte alignment) when detected.
REFCLK 22 I-TTL Reference Clock and Transmit Byte Clock: A 106.25 MHz (Fibre
Channel)/125 MHz (Gigabit Ethernet) clock supplied by the host system.
The transmitter section accepts this signal as the frequency reference
clock. It is multiplied by 10 to generate the serial bit clock and other
internal clocks. The transmit side also uses this clock as the transmit byte
clock for the incoming parallel data TX[0]..TX[9]. It also serves as the
reference clock for the receive portion of the transceiver.

Name Pin Type Signal
RX[0] 45 O-TTL Data Outputs: One 10 bit data byte. RX[0] is the first bit received.
RX[1] 44 RX[0] is the least significant bit. When there is a loss of input signal at
RX[2] 43 ±DIN, these outputs are held static at logic 1. Refer to SIG_DET (pin 26)
RX[3] 41 pin definition for more details.

RXCAP0 48 C Loop Filter Capacitor: A loop filter capacitor for the internal PLL must
RXCAP1 49 be connected across the RXCAP0 and RXCAP1 pins. (typical value = 0.1 µF).
SIG_DET 26 O-TTL Signal Detect: Indicates a loss of signal on the high-speed differential inputs,
±DIN, as in the case where the transmission cable becomes disconnected.
If ±DIN >= 200 mV peak-to-peak, SIG_DET = logic 1.
If ±DIN < 200 mV and ±DIN > 50 mV, SIG_DET = undefined.
If ±DIN <= 50 mV, SIG_DET = logic 0. RX[0:9] = 1111111111.
TX[0] 2 I-TTL Data Inputs: One 10 bit, 8B/10B-encoded data byte. TX[0] is the first
TX[1] 3 bit transmitted. TX[0] is the least significant bit.

TXCAP1 16 C Loop Filter Capacitor: A loop filter capacitor must be connected across
TXCAP0 17 the TXCAP1 and TXCAP0 pins (typical value = 0.1 µF).
VCC 20, S Logic Power Supply: Normally 3.3 volts. Used for internal TX and RX
23,28 PECL logic. It should be isolated from the noisy TTL supply as well as
57,59 possible.
*VCC 5, This pin is bonded to an isolated pad and has no functionality. However,
10,53 it is recommended that this pin be connected to VCC in order to conform
55 with the X3T11 “10-bit specification,” and to help dissipate heat.
VCC_RXA 50 S Analog Power Supply: Normally 3.3 volts. Used to provide a clean
supply line for the PLL and high-speed analog cells.
VCC_RXTTL 29 S TTL Power Supply: Normally 3.3 volts. Used for all TTL receiver output
37 buffer cells.
42
VCC_TXA 18 S Analog Power Supply: Normally 3.3 volts. Used to provide a clean
supply line for the PLL and high-speed analog cells.
VCC_TXECL 60 S High-Speed ECL Supply: Normally 3.3 volts. Used only for the last stage
of the high-speed transmitter output cell (HS_OUT) as shown in
Figure 10. Due to high current transitions, this VCC should be well
bypassed to a ground plane.
VCC_TXHS 63 S High-Speed Supply: Normally 3.3 volts. Used by the transmitter side for the
high-speed circuitry. Noise on this line should be minimized for best operation.

Start-up Procedure:
The transceiver start-up
procedure(s) use the following
conditions: VCC = +3.3 V ±5%
and REFCLK = 106.25 MHz
(Fibre Channel)/125 MHz
(Gigabit Ethernet) ±100 ppm.
After the above conditions have
been met, apply valid data using a
balanced code such as 8B/10B.
Frequency lock occurs within
500 µs. After frequency lock,
phase lock occurs within 2500 bit
times.
Transceiver Power
Supply Bypass and Loop
Filter Capacitors
Bypass capacitors should be
liberally used and placed as close
as possible to the appropriate
power supply pins of the
HDMP-1636A/1646A/T1636A as
shown on the schematic of Figure
12. All bypass chip capacitors are
0.1 µF. The VCC_RXA and
VCC_TXA pins are the analog
power supply pins for the PLL
sections. The voltage into these
pins should be clean with
minimum noise. The PLL loop
filter capacitors and their pin
locations are also shown on
Figure 12. Notice that only two
capacitors are required: CPLLT for
the transmitter and CPLLR for the
receiver. Nominal capacitance is
0.1 µF. The maximum voltage
across the capacitors is on the
order of 1 volt, so the capacitor
can be a low voltage type and
physically small. The PLL
capacitors are placed physically
close to the appropriate pins on
the HDMP-1636A/1646A/
T1636A. Keeping the lines short
will prevent them from picking
up stray noise from surrounding
lines or components.
