RECEIVERS
Input Structure and Input Levels
The ADN8102 receiver inputs incorporate 50 Ω termination
resistors, ESD protection, and a multizero transfer function
equalizer that can be optimized for backplane or cable operation.
Each channel also provides a programmable LOS function that
provides an interrupt that can be used to squelch or disable the
associated output when the differential input voltage falls below the
programmed threshold value. Each receive channel also provides a
P/N inversion function that allows the user to swap the sign of
the input signal path to eliminate the need for board-level
crossovers in the receiver channel.
Table 6 illustrates some, but not all, possible combinations of
input supply voltages.

EQUALIZATION SETTINGS
The ADN8102 receiver incorporates a multizero transfer function,
continuous time equalizer that provides up to 22 dB of high
frequency boost at 1.875 GHz to compensate up to 30 meters
of CX4 cable or 40 inches of FR4 at 3.75 Gbps. The ADN8102
allows joint control of the equalizer transfer function of the
four equalizer channels in a single port through the I2C control
interface. Port A and Port B equalizer transfer functions are
controlled via Register 0x80 and Register 0xA0, respectively.
The equalizer transfer function allows independent control of
the boost in two different frequency ranges for optimal matching
with the loss shape of the user’s channel (for example, skin-effect
loss dominated or dielectric loss dominated). By default, the
equalizer control is simplified to two independent look up
tables (LUT) of basic settings that provide nine settings, each
optimized for CX4 cable and FR4 to ease programming for
typical channels. The default state of the part selects the CX4
optimized equalization map for the IN_A[3:0] channels that
interface with the cable and the FR4 optimized equalization map
for the IN_B[3:0] channels that interface with the board. Full
control of the equalizer is available via the I2C control interface by
writing MODE[0] = 1 at Address 0x0F.
Table 8 summarizes the
high frequency boost for each of the basic control settings and
the typical length of CX4 cable and FR4 trace that each setting
compensates. Setting the EQBY bit of the IN_A/IN_B configuration
registers high sets the equalization to 1.5 dB of boost, which
compensates 0 meters to 2 meters of CX4 or 0 inches to
5 inches of FR4.
Setting the LUT SELECT bit = 1 (Bit 1 in the IN_Ax/IN_Bx FR4
control registers) allows the default map selection (CX4 or FR4
optimized) to be overwritten via the LUT FR4/CX4 bit (Bit 0)
in the IN_Ax/IN_Bx FR4 control registers. Setting this bit high
selects the FR4 optimized map, and setting it low selects the CX4
optimized map. These settings are set on a per channel basis
Table 7.

Advanced Equalization Settings
The user can also specify the boost in the midfrequency and high
frequency ranges independently. This is done by writing to the
IN_A/IN_B EQ1 control and IN_A/IN_B EQ2 control registers for
the channel of interest. Each of these registers provides 32 settings
of boost, with IN_A/IN_B EQ1 control setting the midfrequency
boost and IN_A/IN_B EQ2 control setting the high frequency
boost. The IN_A/IN_B EQx control registers are ordered such
that Bit 5 is a sign bit, and midlevel boost is centered on 0x00;
setting Bit 5 low and increasing the LSBs results in decreasing
boost, while setting Bit 5 high and increasing the LSBs results in
increasing boost. The EQ CTL SRC bit (Bit 6) in the IN_A/IN_B
EQ1 control registers determines whether the equalization
control for the channel of interest is selected from the optimized
map or directly from the IN_A/IN_B EQx control registers (per
port). Setting this bit high selects equalization control directly
from the IN_A/IN_B EQx control registers, and setting it low
selects equalization control from the selected optimized map.
