Design Requirements

For this design example, the following guidelines outlined in Table 12 apply.

Table 12. Front-Port Application Design Guidelines

DESIGN PARAMETER REQUIREMENT
AC coupling capacitors Egress (ASIC-to-module) direction: AC coupling capacitors in the range of 100 to 220 nF are required for the RX inputs and are NOT required for the TX outputs.
Ingress (module-to-ASIC) direction: AC coupling capacitors in the range of 100 to 220 nF are required for the TX outputs and are NOT required for the RX inputs.
Input channel insertion loss ≤ 35 dB at 25.78125 Gbps Nyquist frequency (12.9 GHz)
Output channel insertion loss Egress (ASIC-to-module) direction: Follow CAUI-4 / CEI-25G-VSR host channel requirements (approximately 7dB at 12.9 GHz).
Ingress (module-to-ASIC) direction: Depends on downstream ASIC / FPGA capabilities. The DS250DF410 has a low-jitter output driver with 3-tap FIR filter for equalizing a portion of the output channel.
Host ASIC TX launch amplitude 800 mVppd to 1200 mVppd.
Host ASIC TX FIR filter Depends on channel loss. Refer to Setting the Output VOD, Pre-Cursor, and Post-Cursor Equalization.
