Programmable DC-Balanced 21-Bit Serializers
General Description
The MAX9209/MAX9213 serialize 21 bits of LVTTL/ LV
CMOS parallel input data to three LVDS outputs.
A parallel rate clock on a fourth LVDS output provides timing for deserialization.
The MAX9209/MAX9213 feature programmable DC balance, which allows isolation between the serializer and deserializer using AC-coupling.
The DC balance circuits on each channel code the data, limiting the imbalance of transmitted ones and zeros to a defined range.
The companion MAX9210/MAX9214 deserializers decode the data.
When DC balance is not programmed, the serializers are compatible wi...
