3 Description

The DS160PR412 is four channel linear redrivers with

integrated demultiplexer (demux). The low-power

high-performance linear redriver is designed to

support PCIe 4.0 and other interfaces.

The DS160PR412 receivers deploy continuous time

linear equalizers (CTLE) to provide a high-frequency

boost. The equalizer can open an input eye that is

completely closed due to inter-symbol interference

(ISI) induced by an interconnect medium, such as

PCB traces and cables. The linear redriver along with

the passive channel as a whole get link trained for

best transmit and receive equalization settings

resulting in best electrical link and lowest possible

latency. Low channel-channel cross-talk, low additive

jitter and excellent return loss allows the device to

become almost a passive element in the link. The

devices has internal linear voltage regulator to provide

clean power supply for high speed data paths that

provides high immunity to any supply noise on the

board.

The DS160PR412 implements high speed testing

during

production

for

reliable

high

volume

manufacturing. The device also has low AC and DC

gain variation providing consistent equalization in high

volume platform deployment.
