BCM8129

Multirate 10-Gbps SONET/SDH/10GbE/FEC Demultiplexer Receiver

The BCM8129 is a fully integrated metro, long-haul, ultra long-haul receiver operating at OC-192/STM-64, 10GbE, and two different FEC (Forward Error Correction) data rates (9.953, 10.3125, 10.664, and 10.709 Gbps) with deserializer, clock and data recovery (CDR), loss-of-signal (LOS) detection circuitry and advanced feature set. The BCM8129 provides high-jitter tolerance and low-jitter generation to comply with Optical Internetworking Forum (OIF), IEEE 802.3ae, Telcordia, ANSI, and ITU-T standards.

The BCM8129 reference clock input frequency is user-selectable to the line rate divided by either 16 or 64. The reference clock output and the LVDS receive parallel bus output can be squelched under user control.
