ML6695
100BASE-X Fiber Physical Layer With 5-bit Interface
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ML6695 implements the physical layer of the Fast
Ethernet 100BASE-X standard for fiber media. The device
provides the 5-bit (or symbol) interface for interface to
upper-layer silicon. The ML6695 integrates the data
quantizer and the LED driver, allowing the use of low cost
optical PMD components.
The ML6695 includes 125MHz clock recovery/clock
generation, an LED driver, and a data quantizer (post
amplifier). The device also offers a power down mode
which results in total power consumption of less than 20mA.
The ML6695 is suitable for the current 100BASE-FX IEEE
803.2u standard defined using 1300nm optics, as well as
for the
proposed
100BASE-SX standard defined using lower
cost 820nm optics.

PIN NAME FUNCTION
26 CAPDC Data quantizer offset-correction
loop, offset-storage capacitor input
pin. The capacitor tied between
this pin and AVCC stores the
amplified data quantizer offset
voltage and also sets the dominant
pole in the offset-correction loop.
A 0.1µF surface mount is
recommended.
27 CAPB Data quantizer input bias bypass
capacitor input. The capacitor tied
between this pin and AVCC filters
the quantizer’s internal input bias
reference. A 0.1µF surface-mount
capacitor is recommended.
