Vitesse Introduces VSC8242 Flexible and High Performance Clock and Data Recovery IC for 10 GBps Data Transmission
The VSC8242 is a flexible, high-performance Clock and Data Recovery (CDR) integrated circuit (IC) specifically designed to extend 10 Gbps data transmission in optical, copper cable, and backplane applications. The VSC8242 is a dual port clock and data recovery (CDR) device with on-chip adaptive electronic dispersion compensation (EDC). It is intended for use as a versatile CDR and retimer for all 10 Gbps Ethernet reaches compliant with IEEE 802.3ae and IEEE 802.3aq physical layer specifications. The device operates at 9.9 Gbps to 11.3 Gbps, as well as 1.25 Gbps, complying to the legacy 1 Gbps Ethernet standards. The CDR offers superior performance on a variety of physical media. For longer distances, the device extends optical transmission at 10G data rates on single mode fiber by over 50% and compensates for both chromatic- and polarization-mode dispersion for distances greater then 10 kilometers on exiting 2.5G networking infrastructure…
