LIU RECEIVE PATH

Line Termination (RTIP/RRING)
6.1.1
Internal Termination
The input stage of the receive path accepts standard T1/E1/J1 twisted pair or E1 coaxial cable inputs through
RTIP and RRING. The physical interface is optimized by placing the terminating impedance inside the LIU.
This allows one bill of materials for all modes of operation reducing the number of external components
necessary in system design. The receive termination impedance is selected by programming TERSEL[1:0] to
match the line impedance. Selecting the internal impedance is shown in
Table 5
.
The XRT86VL3x has the ability to switch the internal termination to "High" impedance by programming
RxTSEL in the appropriate channel register, if the RxTSEL hardware pin is “High”. For internal termination, set
RxTSEL to "1". By default, RxTSEL is set to "0" ("High" impedance). For redundancy applications, a
dedicated hardware pin (RxTSEL) is available to control the receive termination for all channels
simultaneously. This hardware pin is AND-ed with the register bit. Both, the register bit and the hardware pin
must be set active for the receiver to be configured for internal impedance.
Figure 55
shows a typical
connection diagram using the internal termination.
6.1.2
Equalizer Control
The main objective of the equalizer is to amplify an input attenuated signal to a pre-determined amplitude that
is acceptable to the peak detector circuit. Using feedback from the peak detector, the equalizer will gain the
input up to the maximum value specified by the equalizer control bits, in the appropriate channel register,
normalizing the signal. Once the signal has reached the pre-determined amplitude, the signal is then
processed within the peak detector and slicer circuit. A simplified block diagram of the equalizer and peak
detector is shown in
Figure 56
