TLK4201EA

(1) Stresses beyond those listed under "absolute maximum ratings" may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under "recommended operating conditions" is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
(2) All voltage values are with respect to network ground terminal.

The TLK4201EA is a versatile, high-speed limiting equalizer for applications in digital high-speed links with data rates up to 4.25 Gbps.

This device provides a high-frequency boost of 12 dB at 2.1 GHz as well as sufficient gain to ensure a fully differential output swing for input signals as low as 100 mVP-P (at the input of the interconnect line or cable).

The high input signal dynamic range ensures low-jitter output signals even when overdriven with input signal swings as high as 2000 mVP-P.

The TLK4201EA includes fixed loss-of-signal (LOS) detection, which can be used to implement a squelch function by connecting the LOS output to the adjacent DISABLE input. The LOS function can be disabled by pulling LOSDIS to high level.

The TLK4201EA is available in a small-footprint, 3-mm * 3-mm, 16-pin QFN package. It requires a single 3.3-V supply.

This very power-efficient equalizer TLK4201EA is characterized for operation from 40 to 85.
