Reducing Pattern-Dependent Jitter

Three design values significantly affect pattern-dependent jitter; the capacitor at CAPC, the pull-up induc-

tor at the output (LP), and the AC-coupling capacitor at the output (CD). As previously stated, the recommended

value for the capacitor at CAPC is 0.1

µF. This results in a 10kHz loop bandwidth which makes the pattern-

dependent jitter from the APC loop negligible.

For 2.5Gb/s data rates, the recommended value for CD is 0.056µF. The time constant at the output is domi-

nated by LP. The variation in the peak voltage should be less that 12% of the average voltage over the maximum

consecutive identical digit (CID) period. The following equation approximates this time constant for a CID

period, t, of 100UI = 40ns:

LP = -t / ln(1-12%) = 7.8t = LP / 25Ω

Therefore, the inductor LP should be a 7.8µH SMD ferrite bead inductor for this case.

Input/Output Considerations

Although the VSC7940 is PECL-compatible, this is not required to drive the device. The inputs must only

meet the common-mode voltage and differential voltage swing specifications.

Power Consumption

The following equation provides the device supply current (IS) in terms of quiescent current (IQ), modula-

tion current (IMOD), and bias current (IBIAS):

IS = 19mA + 0.4 * IMOD + 0.16 * IBIAS

This equation may be used to determine the estimated power dissipation:

PDIS = VCC * IS

For example, if the device were operated at 5V with a 30mA modulation current and a 10mA bias current,

the supply current would be:

IS = 19mA + 0.4 * 30mA + 0.16 * 10mA = 33mA

This corresponds to a power dissipation of 5V * 33mA = 165mW.P
