Linear Equalization

The DS160PR412 receivers feature a continuous-time linear equalizer (CTLE) that applies high-frequency boost to help equalize the frequency-dependent insertion loss effects of the passive channel. Table 7-1 shows available equalization boost through EQ control pins (EQ1 and EQ0), when in Pin Control mode (MODE = L0).

Table 7-1 Equalization Control Settings
EQUALIZATION SETTING TYPICAL EQ BOOST (dB)
EQ INDEX EQ1_0 (Ch 0-3) / EQ1_1 (Ch 4-7) EQ0_0 (Ch0-3) / EQ0_1 (Ch 4-7) @ 4 GHz @ 8 GHz
0 L0 L0 0.0 -0.1
1 L0 L1 1.5 4.5
2 L0 L2 2.0 5.5
3 L0 L3 2.5 6.5
4 L1 L0 2.7 7.0
5 L1 L1 3.0 8.0

7 L1 L3 5.0 10.0
8 L2 L0 6.0 11.0
9 L2 L1 7.0 12.0
10 L2 L2 7.5 12.5
11 L2 L3 8.0 13.0
12 L3 L0 8.5 14.0
13 L3 L1 9.5 15.0
14 L3 L2 10.0 16.0
15 L3 L3 11.0 17.0

The equalization of the device can also be set by writing to SMBus/I2C registers in slave mode. Refer to the DS160PR412/421 Programming Guide for details.
