General Description
The VSC830 is a monolithic dual 2x2 asynchronous crosspoint switch, designed for critical signal path
control and buffering applications, such as loop-back, protection switching, and multi-channel backplane
driver/receivers. Signal path delay is tightly matched between each output channel to eliminate the need for
delay path compensation when switching between signal sources.
The crosspoint function is based on a multiplexer tree architecture. Each 2x2 switch can be considered as a
pair of 2:1 multiplexers that share the same inputs. The signal path through each switch is fully differential and
delay matched. The signal path is u nregistered, s o there are no restrictions on the phase, fre quency, or signal
pattern at each input. Unused outputs can be independently powered off, thereby eliminating power on unused
sections (see Design Guide section in this data sheet). The switch control inputs can be configured to be compatible with PECL or TTL levels. The high-speed input and output levels are nominally PECL compatible and
capable of interfacing with a wide range of termination schemes.
As shown in Figure 1, each output can be treated as a 2:1 multiplexer, with the A1 and A2 inputs common
to both multiplexers. The select input S1 independently controls the state of the multiplexer that drives output
Y1, and select input S2 independently controls the output of Y2.
