7.3.2 DC Gain

The VOD or GAIN pins can be used to set the overall data-path DC (low frequency) gain of the SN75LVPE3410. For more information, see the Pin Configuration and Functions section.

Table 7-2 provides how DC gain of the overall data-paths can be set using GAIN and VOD pins, when in Pin Control mode (EN_SMB = L0).

Table 7-2 DC Gain Settings
Desired DC Gain (dB)GAINVOD
+3.5L3L2
0L2L2
-1.5L2L3
-3.5L2L1
-6L2L0

It is advised that the DC gain and equalization of the SN75LVPE3410 are set so that the signal swing at DC and high frequency does not exceed the DC and AC linearity ranges of the devices, respectively. For most PCIe systems the default DC gain setting 0 dB (GAIN and VOD pins floating) would be sufficient. A DC attenuation, however, can be utilized to apply extra equalization when needed, keeping the data-path linear.
