Description
Pericom Semiconductor’s PI2EQX3421 is a low power, signal
ReDriver. e device provides programmable equalization, to
optimize performance over a variety of physical mediums by
reducing Inter-Symbol Interference. PI2EQX3421 supports two
100-Ohm Dierential CML data I/O’s between the Protocol
ASIC to a switch fabric, across a backplane, or to extend the sig-
nals across other distant data pathways on the user’s platform.
e integrated equalization circuitry provides exibility with
signal integrity of the signal input to ReDriver.
A low-level input signal detection and output squelch function is
provided for each channel. Each channel operates fully indepen-
dently. When the channels are enabled (CE=1) and operating,
that channels input signal level (on XIN+/-) determines whether
the output is enabled. If the input signal level of the channel
falls below the active threshold level (Vth-) then the outputs are
driven to the common mode voltage.
In addition to signal conditioning, Pericoms PI2EQX3421 also
provides power management Stand-by mode operated by the
Chip Enable (CE) pin.

Notes
1. K28.7 pattern is applied dierentially at point A as shown in Figure 1.
2. Total jitter does not include the signal source jitter. Total jitter (TJ) = (14.1 × RJ + DJ) where RJ is random RMS jitter and DJ is maximum deterministic jitter.
Signal source is a K28.5 ± pattern (00 1111 1010 11 0000 0101) for the deterministic jitter test and K28.7 (0011111000) or equivalent for random jitter test. Re-
sidual jitter is that which remains aer equalizing media-induced losses of the environment of Figure 1 or its equivalent. e deterministic jitter at point B must
be from media-induced loss, and not from clock source modulation. JItter is measured at 0V at point C of Figure 1.
3. Using Compliance test at 1.5Gbps and 3Gbps. Also using OOB (OOB is formed by ALIGNp primitive or D24.3) test patterns at 1.5Gbps. e ALIGN primitive
