PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The ADN2928 provides the transmit and receive functions of
quantization, loss of signal detect, and clock and data recovery
at rates from 9.953 Gbps to 11.1 Gbps. The part is designed with
the flexibility to allow it to be used in either Telecoms or
Datacoms XFP module applications. The key advantages of this
circuit’s delay and phase-locked loop architecture are that it
provides a low jitter transfer bandwidth of 1 MHz, while also
exceeding the jitter tolerance requirements of XFP, SONET,
Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel. The architecture also
provides fundamentally 0 dB of Jitter peaking.

Preliminary Technical Data ADN2928
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADN2928 provides the transmit and receive functions of
quantization, loss of signal detect, and clock and data recovery
at rates from 9.953 Gbps to 11.1 Gbps. The part is designed
with the flexibility to allow it to be used in either Telecoms or
Datacoms XFP module applications.
I2C INTERFACE
The I2C interface is used to control the following functions:
data invert and squelch, lineside loop-back, XFI system loopback, REFCLK divide ratio, status readback, optional equalizer
control, and software reset.
RECEIVE PATH
Limiting Amplifier
A limiting amplifier on the data inputs RxINP/N, of the device
has differential inputs which are internally terminate with
50 Ω to an on-chip reference voltage. The limiting amplifier
quantizes the data, with a sensitivity of better than 10 mV.
Loss of Signal Detector
The receiver front end signal-level detector indicates when the
input level has dropped below a user-adjustable level, by asserting Pin LOS to logic high. The trip point can be varied by an
external resistor. The signal-level detector circuitry has a comparator with a minimum hysteresis of 3 dB to prevent chatter.
Clock and Data Recovery PLL
The receive path clock and data recovery (CDR) block recovers
the clock from the serial data input and provides proper timing
for the data outputs. This block contains a synthesizerfrequency tracking loop, and a data-phase tracking loop. A
synthesizer tracking loop locks the divided-down clock derived
from the VCO frequency to a local reference clock running at
1/64 or 1/16 the input data rate. Once it is determined that the
VCO frequency is locked to the reference clock and that valid
serial data is present at the input, then the synthesizer loop is
switched off, and the data-phase tracking loop is turned on.
The data-phase tracking loop is designed in a manner such
that, once locked, the sampling edge of the VCO clock is automatically aligned with the center of the data input. A key feature
of the delay and phase-locked loop (DPLL) architecture is that,
unlike an ordinary PLL, it provides for 0 dB jitter peaking.
CML Outputs
The data signal that is retimed by the CDR clock is driven offchip by 50 Ω terminated current mode logic line drivers. The
data polarity can be optionally inverted through the I
face, and can be squelched. Output amplitudes can be adjusted.
Lock Detector
The lock detector monitors the frequency difference between
the VCO and the reference clock and asserts a lock signal
(RxLOCK) when the VCO is within 500 ppm of the center
frequency. This enables the phase loop which maintains phase
lock, unless the frequency error exceeds 1000 ppm.

TRANSMIT PATH
Equalizer
An equalizer on the data inputs TxINP/N, of the ADN2928
has differential inputs which are internally terminated with
50 ohms to an on chip reference voltage. The equalizer compensates for the ISI induced signal distortion resulting from up to
12 inches of FR4, plus one connector. This enables the CDR to
retime the data from signals transmitted over standard XFI
interfaces. The equalizer characteristics have been optimized
such that no user programming is required to achieve low
retiming error rates for all data rates and XFI compliant
channels. However for other applications the equalizer boost
characteristics can be programmed through the I2C interface.
Clock and Data Recovery PLL
The transmit path clock and data recovery (CDR) block
recovers the clock from the serial data input and provides
proper timing for the data outputs. This block contains a
synthesizer frequency tracking loop, and a data phase tracking
loop. A synthesizer tracking loop locks the divided down clock
derived from the VCO frequency to a local reference clock
running at 1/ 64 or 1/16 the input data rate. Once it is
determined that the VCO frequency is locked to the reference
clock and valid serial data is present at the input, then the
synthesizer loop is switched off, and the data phase tracking
loop is turned on. The data phase tracking loop is designed in a
manner such that, once locked, the sampling edge of the VCO
clock is automatically aligned with the center of the data input.
A key feature of the Delay and Phase Locked Loop (DPLL)
architecture used is that unlike an ordinary PLL, it provides for
0 dB jitter peaking.
CML Outputs
The data signal that is retimed by the CDR clock is driven offchip by 50 Ω terminated current-mode logic line drivers. The
data polarity can be optionally inverted through the I
face, and can be squelched. Output amplitudes can be adjusted.

C inter-
Lock Detector
The lock detector monitors the frequency difference between
the VCO and the reference clock and asserts a lock signal
(TxLOCK) when the VCO is within 500 ppm of the center
frequency. This enables the phase loop which maintains phase
lock, unless the frequency error exceeds 1000 ppm.
SYSTEM FUNCTIONS
XFI System Loopback
In this mode data received on the TxINP/N pins is retimed and
output on the RxOUTP,N pins. The TxINP/N data is not
present on the TxOUTP/N pins.
Lineside Loopback
In this mode data received on the RxINP/N pins is retimed and
output on the TxOUTP/N pins. The received data is not present
on the RxOUTP/N pins.

ADN2928 Preliminary Technical Data
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
PCB DESIGN GUIDELINES
Proper RF PCB design techniques must be used for optimal
performance. A typical ADN2928 applications circuit is shown
in Figure 4.
Power Supply Connections and Ground Planes
Using one low impedance ground plane is recommended.
Solder the GND pins directly to the ground plane to reduce
series inductance. If the ground plane is an internal plane and
connections to the ground plane are made through vias, multiple vias can be used in parallel to reduce the series inductance.
Use of a 22 µF electrolytic capacitor between each supply
and GND is recommended at the location where the supply
enters the PCB. Use 0.1 µF and 1 nF ceramic chip capacitors to
decouple the IC power supplies between VDD and VEE. These
caps should be placed as close as possible to the ADN2928
VDD pins.
If connections to the supply and ground are made through vias,
the use of multiple vias in parallel helps to reduce series
inductance.
Transmission Lines
Use of 50 Ω transmission lines is required for all high frequency
input and output signals to minimize reflections: RxINN/P,
RxOUTN/P, TxINN/P, TxOUTN/P, REFCLKN/P. It is also
necessary for the differential pairs to be matched in length to
avoid skew between the differential traces. As with any high
speed mixed-signal design, take care to keep all high speed
digital traces away from sensitive analog nodes.
