Product Summary
VSC8144
2.488Gb/s 4:1 SONET/SDH Transceiver with Integrated Clock Generator
Features
• Multi-Rate Transceiver for SONET OC-48, OC-24,
OC-12, OC-3, and Gigabit Ethernet Rates
• 4-Bit LV DS Low-Speed Interfa ce
• On-Chip PLL-Based Clock Generator
• High-Speed Clock Output
General Description
The VSC8144 is a S ONET/SDH co mpatible m ulti-ra te transcei ver with integrate d clock gene rator for use in
SONET/SDH systems operating at OC-48, OC-24, OC-12, OC-3, or Gigabit Ethernet data rates. The internal clock
generator uses a Phase Locked Loop (PLL) to multiply either a 77.76MHz, 155.52MHz, or 622.08MHz reference clock
for internal logic and output retiming. The 4-bit parallel LVDS interface incorporates an on-board FIFO to address loop
timing design issues. Facility and Equipment Loopbacks can be configured separately or simultaneously. The device
operates with 2.5 W maximum power and is packaged in a thermally enhanced 100-pin PQFP package.
