The TLK2711-SP is a member of the WizardLink transceiver family of multigigabit transceivers, intended for use in ultra-high-speed bidirectional point-to-point data transmission systems. The TLK2711-SP supports an effective serial interface speed of 1.6Gbps to 2.5Gbps, providing up to 2Gbps of data bandwidth.

The primary application of the TLK2711-SP is to provide high-speed I/O data channels for point-to-point baseband data transmission over controlled impedance media of approximately 50Ω. The transmission media can be printed circuit board, copper cables, or fiber-optic cable. The maximum rate and distance of data transfer is dependent upon the attenuation characteristics of the media and the noise coupling to the environment.

This device can also be used to replace parallel data transmission architectures by providing a reduction in the number of traces, connector pins, and transmit/receive pins. Parallel data loaded into the transmitter is delivered to the receiver over a serial channel, which can be a coaxial copper cable, a controlled impedance backplane, or an optical link. It is then reconstructed into its original parallel format. It offers significant power and cost savings over parallel solutions, as well as scalability for higher data rates in the future.

The TLK2711-SP performs parallel-to-serial and serial-to-parallel data conversion. The clock extraction functions as a physical layer (PHY) interface device. The serial transceiver interface operates at a maximum speed of 2.5Gbps. The transmitter latches 16-bit parallel data at a rate based on the supplied reference clock (TXCLK). The 16-bit parallel data is internally encoded into 20 bits using an 8-bit/10-bit (8b/10b) encoding format. The resulting 20-bit word is then transmitted differentially at 20× the reference clock (TXCLK) rate. The receiver section performs the serial-to-parallel conversion on the input data, synchronizing the resulting 20-bit wide parallel data to the recovered clock (RXCLK). It then decodes the 20-bit wide data using the 8-bit/10-bit decoding format resulting in 16 bits of parallel data at the receive data pins (RXD0–RXD15). The outcome is an effective data payload of 1.28Gbps to 2Gbps (16 bits data × the frequency).

The TLK2711-SP is available in a 68-pin ceramic nonconductive tie-bar package (HFG).

The TLK2711-SP provides an internal loopback capability for self-test purposes. Serial data from the serializer is passed directly to the deserializer, providing the protocol device with a functional self-check of the physical interface.
